Microsoft is one of the big investors behind OpenAI, the company that has developed the famous ChatGPT. Thanks to this, Microsoft has been able to implement the popular Artificial Intelligence chatbot in several of its products, such as the Bing search engine and the Edge browser.
Although ChatGPT does not yet have an official app for Android, the truth is that thanks to this collaboration between Microsoft and OpenAI, Android users can now use the Bing chatbot (remember that it uses the same model as ChatGPT Plus , but with the advantage that it is also free) on our mobile device. As? Thanks to Microsoft’s SwiftKey keyboard .
How to use Bing chatbot (GPT-4 based) on Android with Microsoft SwiftKey keyboard
As we say, Microsoft is putting ChatGPT everywhere it can, and the latest to receive this update has been its keyboard app, which by the way, has been one of the best keyboards we can find on Android for years .
At the beginning of April Microsoft introduced the Bing chatbot in the beta versions of SwiftKey, and recently we can already use it in the official standard version of the application. If you want to try it, you can download the Microsoft keyboard from the Play Store.

Once we have the keyboard installed and configured, we will find ChatGPT, or what is the same, the Bing chat, in the upper right corner of the keyboard .
If we click on the blue Bing icon, a new bar will be displayed with several options:
- Search: This option allows us to search the Internet from the Bing search engine, directly from the keyboard.
- Tone: From here we can write a sentence, and Artificial Intelligence will rewrite that same sentence but with different tones, such as more formal, more casual, etc.
- Write: Here we will find the AI of ChatGPT in its most advanced version. It is a menu designed to write emails, blog entries, ideas and all kinds of texts, being able to select the tone of the writing, as well as its length.
- Chat: The classic chatbot of a lifetime, where you can ask questions and chat with the AI. You can choose 3 different conversation styles: more creative, more balanced or more precise.
As you can see, Microsoft has not cut a hair, and has added the same functions to the full that we find in the desktop version of its Artificial Intelligence. There is nothing missing.
If you already use the Bing chatbot on PC because it offers quite advanced and accurate answers, with an Internet connection and several writing modes, with the SwiftKey keyboard you can have all these functions on your Android and deploy them in a matter of seconds.
