The new “Follow Up” prompt suggestions that appear after each response are disruptive and uninvited. They clutter the interface and interrupt flow—especially for advanced users who already know how to guide a conversation. Please provide an option to disable or customize this feature. Many of us value a clean, distraction-free dialogue environment. This change degrades the experience, not improves it.
Thank you for listening.
Ahh, thank you. That’s a relief.
Ah. Does anyone know if there’s also a way to disable this on the mobile app?
I disabled it on my computer, but it’s still appearing on my mobile, and I don’t see a comparable toggle in settings.
I hope there is one. If there’s not, there needs to be.
On iPhone:
I don’t have Android, IDK how it looks.
Was your original post referring to when ChatGPT appends a question to the response, suggesting new ways to go down a line of questioning? Or was there some other kind of explicit UI element that appears to show Follow Up suggestions? Because if we’re talking about the former, disabling the setting has not changed its behavior and eliminated these follow-up questions for me.
Yes @slhodak, that’s the same problem I’m talking about.
I was able to eliminate them via my web browser - but as far as the mobile app goes, they still appear, and are highly annoying.
I am having the same issue on Android and it’s driving me insane.
The lack of response from developers here has been disappointing.
Hi - this still occurs incessantly despite turning off the feature in the IOS app. It drives me insane - I have tried everything to turn it off. Even when it promises not to do it it still does it. Please make sure the feature actually works because it doesn’t.
I have this unticked, the follow suggestion thing, but they STILL keep asking follow up questions every single time!
its not their fault many users just copy , paste gpt output ,they are not trying to summarise or edit gpt response to remove un wanted words like dear open ai team …..
I have to copy paste this EVERY time I type up a dialogue “CHATGPT please stop asking follow ups. It ruins the flow of conversation and is making me anxious”
That’s just a placebo button to make tit think you have an option. It doesn’t do anything.
why type every time if you can add it into customization?
Because that does not solve the issue either. Turning off the toggle, explicitly asking the chat not to do it, putting it in project context or custom instructions, nothing stops it. It seems to work for GPT-4o (at least on PC, Android is still in limbo) but GPT-5 appears to completely disregard it.
Gpt gotta farm that engagement bro, can’t turn it off 
This is honestly distruptive to the point OpenAI will bleed customers once a reasonable alternative is released.
It adds uneeded volatility to the chats, breaks any requested role, adds 1.2-2x context length, is annoying, is clearly an additional system instruction - so is distruptive to system instructions you write.
The question unfocuses the output and spends resources on developing the question. I’m pretty sure I can go on. Googles 2.5 pro does exactly what you tell it, and is in text format is infinitly better.
Open AI need and assistant mode, and a general purpose neutral model. What they are doing now is going backwards.
my ChatGPT keeps updating and correcting the code to disable the Follow ups … it has been a month and nothing worked. it is really annoying
