Image Generation Stuck on Loading

4 days have passed and have not been able to generate anything due to images stuck in queue.

Same Issue, maybe after a thousand people with gpt plus complain, then they’ll fix it?

October 7, 2025 - The bug is still present

Below I’ll describe the steps I took that actually helped solve the problem, as well as those that can be skipped (solution at the end).


What didn’t work

  1. Reloading the page — Don’t waste time; it won’t help.

  2. Pressing the stop button — The image generation won’t stop; the button is non-functional.

  3. Deleting all cookies — Seems logical, but it didn’t fix the issue(at least for me).

  4. Using the desktop version of ChatGPT — Also useless; it still gets stuck in the endless loading loop.


The actual solution

This has been mentioned before, but I decided to collect all working suggestions together so you don’t waste your time.

  1. Download the ChatGPT mobile app.

  2. Open the same chat where the bug occurred.

  3. Send any message - literally anything.

Once you do this, the image generation will stop.
So far, this is the only working method I’ve found.

The best solution i found is to branch the chat and delete the old one this stops any unfinished results or images being generated while maintaining the chat as it is

Ditto. I have never managed to get chatgpt to generate any image…
