Message from ChatGPT landed “ uninvited” in my inbox and can not be deleted; again forced choice is not a good practice ; if a message is not wanted it should be deleted without fuss. In setting the tab for disconnecting Chat Got shows “ something went wrong” ; not expected from an established and respected app!
Developer Response
Hello! Thank you for the feedback! The "Disconnect ChatGPT" setting only works if you previously signed in to ChatGPT through Viber. Tapping it unlinks a connected ChatGPT account; it does not remove the feature. Using ChatGPT in Viber is entirely optional.
