ChatGPT Gets AMOLED Theme, New Features in Latest Beta Update (APK Breakdown)

OpenAI has rolled out a major update for ChatGPT, pushing the app to version v1.2025.203 on the beta channel. One of the standout features of this release is a brand-new AMOLED-friendly theme, designed to look stunning on most modern smartphones and tablets. Both the light and dark modes have received visual upgrades, with darker tones replacing the previous grayish UI on Android and iOS.

The refreshed design significantly enhances the appearance of ChatGPT’s interface, especially in dark mode. The new AMOLED theme offers deeper blacks and a sleeker aesthetic, making it easier on the eyes and more battery-efficient on OLED screens. Below is a comparison of the UI before and after the update:

OpenAI has struggled in the past to perfect the user interface, particularly the dark mode experience. Throughout previous updates, we’ve documented several UI and theme-related changes. This latest theme is internally referred to as the Holo theme, as seen in the source code:

Google Services Integration Under Testing

Following the launch of Ask ChatGPT and Captions, OpenAI is now testing a connector tool that links ChatGPT with Google apps and services such as Gmail, Contacts, and Messages. This functionality could greatly enhance its usability as a default assistant on Android smartphones.

This strategic move indicates OpenAI’s ambition to position ChatGPT as a full-fledged AI assistant by deeply integrating it into the Android ecosystem. These capabilities build upon existing features like app integration and assistant replacement.

Improved Image Generation Styles

ChatGPT’s image generation tool also received a creative boost with the addition of new style templates. Users can now generate images in a variety of artistic styles including:

• Anime
• Cyberpunk
• Retro Cartoon
• Art Nouveau
• 80s Glam
• Synthwave

These new options expand on previously available Ghibli-inspired visuals, offering users greater creative freedom and diversity.

New Tutor Mode for Students

OpenAI has introduced a Tutor feature aimed at helping students with homework, subject exploration, and test preparation. This feature highlights the platform’s growing focus on educational use cases and acknowledges ChatGPT’s utility in academic settings.
