OpenAI is extending Codex desktop capabilities into the EEA, UK, and Switzerland this week, bringing the AI coding agent’s ability to control apps on Mac and Windows, run browser tasks via a Chrome extension, and store user preferences across sessions.
Stoked to announce that the Chrome, Computer Use, Memory, Chronicle and more are rolling out across the EU, EEA and UK this week! 🔥
Codex can now use apps across your Mac, automate workflows in Chrome and remember context across your work.
Open your Codex and prompt away!
The Computer Use feature lets Codex see screens, click, and type inside local apps like Xcode, while the Chrome extension handles multi-tab workflows that need a signed-in browser session.
Personalized memories and the Chronicle opt-in preview for building them from screen context are available, yet memories default to off in these regions with Chronicle limited to ChatGPT Pro subscribers on macOS.
Many users thank OpenAI for rolling out Codex computer use, Chrome automation and Mac features across the EU and UK without a VPN, while others dismiss the update and demand new models or the return of 4o instead.

here are a few things that you should try to experience the future:
- ask codex to use chrome and automate all your busy work like filling forms, capturing info - ask it to update memory based on your recent sessions, PRs, artefacts on a project, watch it become better in realtime - give it an app shot and ask it debug/ fix/ triage issues and codex will automatically gather extra context
there’s a lot more you can do all you need to do is ask and make sure you’ve got chrome and computer use plugins installed!
