TL;DR<\/p>\n

OpenAI brought Sora to mobile earlier this year, starting with iOS.
\nLast month the company teased an Android release was \u201cactually coming soon.\u201d
\nToday the Android Sora app hits the Play Store, with no waitlist for users in the US.<\/p>\n

When it comes to AI, access is a tricky thing. While some models can run locally on our devices, the most impressive ones tend to live in the cloud, and while that has the potential to make it trivial for anyone to access them, anywhere, in practice that hasn\u2019t exactly been the case. This week we\u2019re finally seeing our favorite mobile platform get access to one of the most popular generative video solutions around, as Sora comes to Android.<\/p>\n

OpenAI\u2019s Sora models<\/a> have been getting better, fast, and in our testing we saw them give Google\u2019s own Veo 3 a run for its money. But so far, if you\u2019ve wanted to experiment with Sora, you\u2019ve either been doing it on your PC, or through OpenAI\u2019s recently released iOS app. Just a couple weeks back, though, we got word that this situation was nearly ready to change, with a Sora Android app<\/a> supposedly \u201cactually coming soon.\u201d As it turns out, \u201csoon\u201d meant \u201cin under two weeks,\u201d and today Sora hits the Google Play Store<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This is great timing, as OpenAI<\/a> announced on X last week that it was temporarily letting users start working with Sora without an invite code in select nations \u2014 including the US. Sure enough, we were able to download and install the Android app and get creating straight away, without any waitlist:<\/p>\n

Beyond just generating your own videos based on your text prompts, the app has a strong social component to it, letting you browse videos created by other Sora users. That includes a whole lot of users remixing each other\u2019s videos, changing elements until they devolve into often-hysterical chaotic messes.<\/p>\n

Sora\u2019s new \u201ccameo\u201d feature lets you insert yourself into videos, and the release of this Android app is a fantastic opportunity to start giving that a try and find what crazy situations you can place your virtual self in. We\u2019ve only just started playing around with it ourselves, and look forward to sharing some of our favorite results with you.<\/p>\n
