ChatGPT hears you fine when you talk to it, and on a paid plan it will usually transcribe an audio file you attach. Usually is the operative word: audio is not on the official list of supported upload types, so the feature works, breaks quietly and returns without an announcement. Record mode is desktop only.
the catchFree accounts get dictation and nothing else. Anything longer than a short clip is better handed to a tool that was actually built to hold it.
