OpenAI launches Sora for Android devices


OpenAI on Tuesday launched its Sora app of AI-generated videos for Android devices.

The artificial intelligence company first launched Sora for Apple devices in September. The announcement on Tuesday brings the popular AI app to the Google Play app store for users in the U.S., Canada, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand and Vietnam.

Sora reportedly hit 1 million downloads less than five days after its debut, and it topped Apple’s App Store for nearly three weeks. Sora currently holds the no. 5 spot on Apple’s list of the top free apps, behind Google’s Gemini at no. 4 and ChatGP, which is also made by OpenAI, in the top spot.

OpenAI is working on making the app available in Europe, according to a post on X from Bill Peebles, head of Sora at OpenAI.

The app allows users to create AI-generated videos through written prompts, then post those videos onto a shared feed, similar to that of TikTok. Although initially rolled out as an invite-only platform, Sora is now available to anyone for a limited time, according to an OpenAI post on X.
