OpenAI has rolled out a “library” feature to the ChatGPT website and app that brings all your AI-generated images together in one easy-to-access place. Now, you can view every image you’ve made right from the ChatGPT sidebar.
Also: ChatGPT will remember everything you tell it now – like a real personal assistant
This new library not only shows the images you’ve created but also lets you jump back into editing those images — and it includes a clear button to generate new images, if you want. Here’s how it all works and how to find the library, whether on mobile or desktop.
How ChatGPT’s image library works
OpenAI released a video to announce the new feature. I got access to it overnight, and it works exactly as described and shown.
When you tap on the new library link in the ChatGPT sidebar, it opens a grid of images. This is a visual log of every image you’ve generated using the AI tool (unless you’ve cleared your history, of course). You can scroll through the images with your finger or cursor and select any one to access additional image tools such as edit, save, share, and more.
Also: GPT-4.1 is here, but not for everyone. Here’s who can try the models
The library screen also has a button to start generating new images with just one tap. When you select it, ChatGPT will load the traditional prompt screen for you to begin entering a new image description.

How to access ChatGPT’s library
The new image library is available to everyone using ChatGPT. Whether you have a Free, Plus, or Pro subscription, the update comes at no extra cost. You can get started using it now, too.
Also: ChatGPT Plus is free for students now – how to grab this deal
For mobile users, it is important to note that you must have the latest version of the ChatGPT app to see this new feature. I currently see it in both the iOS mobile app and the web version.
- Open the ChatGPT app or website. You do not need to log in to begin using ChatGPT.
- Look for the new Library section in the sidebar.
- Tapping or selecting this section brings up a grid view of all the AI-generated images you’ve produced over time.
- Select any image to see more tools such as Editing, Save, and Share.
- At the bottom or top corner of the library screen – depending on your device – you will see a button that lets you create a new image instantly. This makes it easy to quickly jump into another creative session without having to navigate through menus.
This new library feature is helpful if you frequently use ChatGPT for image generation. It lets you keep track of all your creations in one dedicated space, making it much easier to find what you’re looking for later.
