Anthropic, the company behind Claude AI, today announced major updates to its iOS and Android apps, giving mobile users a new look and enhanced functionality. This update includes the debut of an iPad app that will improve the user experience of leveraging Claude AI for personal and professional tasks.
Users now have more options to customize Claude AI’s behavior, including adding specific information for more customized instructions. This latest update adds another milestone to Claude AI’s growing list of capabilities, with the potential for even more developments in the future.
New customization features
A practical addition to access important information on demand is the ability to search past chats. Users can revisit previous conversations, giving them more control and more productive workflows.
Users can also enter specific information to add context to the project or modify prompts with custom instructions. For example, I asked Claude AI to help me create a chore list for my three children, and it did it. She then added that my 7-year-old son has ADHD, so the AI tailored its response to my needs.
New features and functionality open the door to increased productivity, especially for those juggling multiple projects or using Claude AI in complex settings where custom instructions are critical to success .
New app for iPad users
iPad users have reason to celebrate. Until now, Claude AI only worked from your smartphone or desktop. AI models now have a dedicated iPad app, expanding the usability and reach of the app and providing a more optimized interface for users to work with Claude AI seamlessly across devices.
The app’s updated interface and additional project support make it easier to move between devices while maintaining workflow continuity, further establishing Claude AI as a versatile AI productivity tool.
Looking to the future
As Anthropic rolls out these updates, we continue to position Claude AI as a powerful and user-friendly tool across a variety of devices and platforms. Claude’s mobile enhancements highlight Anthropic’s efforts to improve accessibility and user experience, enabling more adaptive AI assistance for a wide range of tasks and use cases.
