Anthropic launched its Claude Android app on Tuesday to bring its AI chatbot to more users. This is Anthropic’s latest effort to convince users to ditch ChatGPT by making Claude available in more places.
The Claude Android app will work just like the iOS version released in May, including free access to Anthropic’s best AI model, Claude 3.5 Sonnet, alongside upgraded plans through Anthropic’s Pro and Team subscriptions. Users will be able to sync their conversations with Claude across devices, and upload photos or files to the app for real-time image analysis. The Claude Android app also includes real-time language translation, which Anthropic hopes to be a convincing reason for people to open the app.
Additionally, the app allows enterprise customers to access their Claude accounts on mobile.
Although Anthropic claims its AI models are technically on par with OpenAI’s and Google’s offerings, the startup has struggled to gain traction with consumers. The Claude iOS app saw a tepid reception during its launch two months ago, with 157,000 total global downloads during its first week on the market, compared to the ChatGPT iOS app’s 480,000 installs during its first five days on the market.
