Recent developments within the ChatGPT Android application hint at an exciting enhancement in its image generation capabilities. Code unearthed during an APK teardown suggests that OpenAI is gearing up to introduce a “reimagined” image generation experience, promising improved accuracy and detail in the images produced. However, users may need to exercise patience, as this upgrade could result in longer processing times.
Anticipated Features and Improvements
The ongoing competition between Gemini and ChatGPT has taken an intriguing turn. While Gemini enjoys the advantage of being preloaded on most Android flagship devices, ChatGPT often leads with its innovative features and advanced AI models. Currently, ChatGPT supports image generation through its Android app, but the anticipated upgrade could elevate its capabilities significantly.
In the latest version, ChatGPT v1.2025.077, developers have embedded strings that indicate a forthcoming enhancement in image generation. Among these, one notable string reads:
<string name="conversationimagegendisclosurebottomsheettitle">ChatGPT images, reimaginedThis suggests that the application will soon offer a more sophisticated approach to image creation. The accompanying description implies that while the new images will be more accurate and detailed, they will also require a bit more time to generate:

- Create a transparent image of a logo for my cat-themed coffee shop with a fun name.
- Create an annotated diagram showing the lifecycle of a butterfly.
- Create an image of a neon sign reading “Open 24 Hours” in perfect lettering.
- Create a colorful invitation for a garden-themed birthday party, including whimsical typography.
- Create a still from an imaginary animated movie featuring raccoons planning a heist.
Furthermore, the term “ImageGen” has emerged in the feature list, suggesting a more defined branding for this enhanced functionality.
Currently, ChatGPT utilizes OpenAI’s DALL-E 3 model for image generation, and these recent code revelations imply an upgrade to this existing functionality. However, specifics regarding the technical aspects of the upcoming improvements remain scarce, and it is unclear whether the new features will be accessible to both free and paid users of ChatGPT.
As the tech community eagerly awaits further announcements from OpenAI, the potential for enhanced image generation capabilities in ChatGPT promises to enrich user experience and creativity.
