ChatGPT only allows users to add Apps in their web application, not in desktop apps. It also only works properly on Chrome and only with paid accounts. In other browsers or with a free account, you may have issues where it appears to successfully add the MCP connection but then the app doesn’t appear in settings and doesn’t work.
