Request for Text Input with Speech Output in ChatGPT App

I love using ChatGPT, but I often find myself in situations where I can’t speak aloud (e.g., late at night when others are sleeping, or in public where talking into my phone might draw attention). A feature allowing text-only input from me and speech output from ChatGPT through headphones would be incredibly helpful.

Key Advantages of Text-In, Speech-Out:

  1. Discreet Use: I can type my questions instead of speaking, making it ideal for quiet environments or public spaces.
  2. Hands-Free Listening: ChatGPT’s responses could be played through my headphones, meaning I don’t need to stare at my screen or read text.
  3. Improved Accessibility: A native text-to-speech option benefits visually impaired users or anyone who prefers auditory feedback.

I envision a simple toggle in the ChatGPT app that reads messages aloud through my headset. Thank you for your time and consideration. If this feature is on your roadmap, I would love to learn more; if not, please consider it for a future release!
