ChatGPT App Store launches — Apple Music joins 50+ apps
OpenAI has officially launched the ChatGPT App Store, offering more than 50 third‑party applications integrated directly into ChatGPT. After an earlier premature hint that appeared online, the platform’s Apple Music integration is now confirmed as one of the available apps.
The App Store aims to extend ChatGPT’s capabilities by letting users run services, access content and control apps without leaving the chat interface. Apple Music joins other familiar integrations to let subscribers discover and play music, manage playback, or pull song information from within ChatGPT.
What you need to know
- Launch scope: The App Store opens with 50+ apps covering music, productivity, utilities and more.
- Apple Music integration: Enables music discovery and playback controls from inside ChatGPT for users with Apple Music access.
- Access: Apps are available through the ChatGPT interface (visit chat.openai.com), and developers can apply to publish their integrations.
Why it matters
Embedding widely used services like Apple Music directly inside ChatGPT lowers the friction for users who want a single interface for AI and everyday apps. For developers and publishers, the App Store represents a new distribution channel that can surface services inside conversational workflows.
That said, integrations raise questions about privacy, account linking and data handling. Users should check how each app manages authentication and what permissions it requires before connecting personal accounts.
What to watch next
- How quickly OpenAI expands the catalog and whether major apps from other categories follow.
- Developer tools, revenue arrangements and moderation policies that shape who can publish and how apps behave.
- User adoption and whether integrated apps change how people use ChatGPT daily.

Discussion: Will you use Apple Music (or other services) inside ChatGPT — or do you prefer keeping apps and AI separate? What integrations would you like to see next?
