ChatGPT adds account switching: stay signed in to up to 2 accounts, rolling out on iOS and Android, desktop coming soon
On October 31, Tibo (@thsottiaux), who works on Codex and ChatGPT at OpenAI, announced on X, as day 26 of his daily shipping posts, that ChatGPT mobile now supports switching between accounts, with desktop coming soon. OpenAI's updated Help Center article says users can stay signed in to up to 2 accounts with one active at a time; chats, memory, files, subscriptions, billing and workspaces stay separate, and switching never moves or merges data. The post drew about 10,000 likes and 1.36M views.

OpenAI launches a $35,000 WebMCP Challenge as ChatGPT desktop and Sites gain native WebMCP
OpenAI Developers opened a 10-day WebMCP Challenge with ChromiumDev, CloudflareDev, ShopifyDevs, Vercel, Render, and Netlify. Prizes include $35,000 in cash, Codex Micros, ChatGPT Pro subscriptions, and partner awards. WebMCP is an experimental open standard that lets websites expose page-level tools an agent can call. OpenAI is adding WebMCP support in the ChatGPT desktop app's built-in browser and on ChatGPT Sites, so ChatGPT or Codex can automatically use a compatible site to finish a task. Builders can start from scratch or add WebMCP to an existing site; submissions are due September 3 at 5pm PT, with 10 winners announced September 23. The practical developer loop is: update the ChatGPT desktop app, ask Codex to create a WebMCP-enabled app, and deploy it to Sites. For coding agents, this is a path from generic browser use toward typed, site-native tools instead of brittle DOM clicking.
