How to add ChatGPT to mobile iOS or Android app

If you’re looking for information on how to embed your custom trained chatbot in your mobile iOS or Android app, you’re in the right place! Here’s how to add ChatGPT to a mobile app with Chatwith.
 

Add your chatbot to your iOS or Android mobile app

Adding your chatbot to your app can be done in two steps. Depending on the complexity of your mobile app, the second step can take somewhere between a minute and an hour.
 

In the Chatwith dashboard

Select your chatbot from the dropdown menu at the top, click on the Install chatbot section in the sidebar, then click on the Copy link button in the Link section to copy your chatbot URL.

In your mobile app code

The installation of the chatbot link in your mobile app will depend on the platform and framework used. Here are general instructions for most popular solutions on the market:
Android
Use the WebView widget to embed a webpage within your Android app. Load a URL into the WebView by calling the loadUrl() method on a WebView instance. Don't forget to add the INTERNET permission in the Android Manifest.
 
iOS
Use the WKWebView class from the WebKit framework to embed web content in your iOS application. Initialize a WKWebView object, set its frame and load a URLRequest to display the website. Make sure to include the WebKit framework in your project.
 
React Native
Utilize the react-native-webview package to add web views in your React Native apps. Import the WebView component from the package and use it in your JSX code to load a URL by setting the source prop.
 
Flutter
In Flutter, you can use the webview_flutter package for embedding web content. Import the package and use the WebView widget, setting the initialUrl property to the URL you wish to load.
 
Ionic
For Ionic apps, you can use the Ionic Native InAppBrowser plugin or directly use the iframe HTML element for simple cases. Import the plugin and call the create() method to launch a URL in an in-app browser window.
 
 
💡
These are just quick overviews; additional configurations might be required to make these components fully functional. Please reach out to support@chatwith.tools if you have further questions!
💡
Some approaches might result in the chat website stretched outside the viewport - the best solution is to wrap the chatbot embed URL in another HTML element to “contain” it.
