ChatGPT has taken the world by storm but due to its openness, it can be rather confusing for some users especially those who may not be familiar with prompts “engineering” or crafting prompts to make ChatGPT produce required outputs.

Thankfully, many developers have taken their own initiatives to create Browser Extensions (largely Chrome) to simplify certain process. And here, I’m sharing 5 Must-Have Extensions (For Chrome)!

#1 WebChatGPT

This extension allows ChatGPT to search the web for latest materials or resources. It adds another bar below the Prompt Bar, in which you can decide whether or not to allow ChatGPT to search by a specific period or a region. Install Here

#2 EditGPT

This is like a Grammarly version of ChatGPT! Easily proofread, edit, and track changes to your content in ChatGPT. Be mindful of the instructions that you need to use for certain functions to work. It’s stated on the extension page. Install Here.

#3 ChatGPT Prompt Genius

Running out of ideas on what kind of prompts can be used on ChatGPT? This extension that helps you discover, share, import, and use the best prompts for ChatGPT. It also save your conversations locally, means you can keep them without the fear of being cleared on the server. Install Here

#4 YouTube Summary With ChatGPT

This handy extension lets you quickly access the summary of the YouTube videos you are watching, not perfect but definitely saves a lot of time. Install Here

#5 GPT-EZ for OpenAI ChatGPT

Hate the boring look of ChatGPT? Then this will “beautify” it for you! It comes with color schemes and added features such as Download the conversation or share functions. Neat! Install Here

Do note that while I have reviewed these addons to ensure they are safe (you can also read the review tab on each extension’s page), you may need to update your Chrome browser for certain extension to work. Also, if you’re doing some important tasks when installing it, do save them first. You need to refresh ChatGPT for the extension to start working.
