Version Arrows for ChatGPT

Edited a prompt or regenerated an answer, and now you can't flip back to the earlier one? ChatGPT moved those versions into a separate "See versions" window. Version Arrows puts the ‹ 1/2 › arrows back on the message itself, and adds a prompt navigator for long chats.

Add to your browser: coming soon Free. Works in Chrome and Edge on chatgpt.com.

Questions

Is this made by OpenAI?
No. Version Arrows is an independent extension by Otter Potter and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by OpenAI.
What does it see?
Only the chat you have open on chatgpt.com, the same data the ChatGPT page loads. It stores nothing and sends nothing anywhere. See the privacy policy.
Can it make an old version the active one?
No, and no extension can: ChatGPT no longer lets an old version become the active one. What it does allow is continuing from an older prompt in a new chat, and Version Arrows does that in one click (it runs ChatGPT's own "Branch in new chat" for you).
An older prompt says "scroll up a little"?
ChatGPT only loads the most recent messages of a long chat. Scroll up a little and the navigator jumps to your prompt as soon as it loads.
