We’ll go through the ways to do it on desktop + mobile.

It is free to regenerate a response in ChatGPT.

What does regenerate mean?

In ChatGPT, “regenerate” means asking the AI chatbot to give a clearer answer to your question.

If you don’t understand the answer, ask ChatGPT to rephrase and explain in clearer terms.

Let’s see how to do this.

How to regenerate a response in ChatGPT

You can regenerate a response in ChatGPT by clicking the “Regenerate” button once the AI is done writing its first message.

Alternatively, type in a new prompt saying “Regenerate” or “Explain clearer”.

A. Desktop

Method 1: Button

1. Ask ChatGPT anything
2. Wait for it to finish replying
3. Click the “Regenerate” button

This will only regenerate the last answer it gave. Not the previous ones.

You can then cycle through the old + new answers, like so:

• Click the “<” arrow to go to the 1st, original answer.
• Then the “>” arrow to see the 2nd, regenerated answer.

Method 2: Prompt

1. Ask ChatGPT anything
2. Wait for its response
3. Send a new message asking to regenerate.

However, using the “Regenerate” button is the easiest way to do this.

B. Mobile

Method 1: Long-press

1. Open ChatGPT
2. Ask anything
3. Long-press the response
4. Tap “Regenerate Response“

We’ve used an iPhone in this example. However, this work for Android as well.

Method 2: Prompt

1. Ask ChatGPT anything
2. Wait for the answer
3. Type & Send a message asking to regenerate

There you go! ChatGPT has rewritten its message.
