How to pin messages in ChatGPT
Updated May 27, 2026
Quick answer
ChatGPT does not have a pin feature for individual messages. There is no way natively to flag a specific reply so it stays accessible as the conversation grows. GPT Master bookmarks are the closest equivalent: hover any message, click the star icon, and that message is saved to a dedicated Bookmarks tab. Bookmarks persist across sessions, are searchable, and jump to the specific message with one click - the same workflow you would expect from a pin.
Pinning a message means keeping it easy to reach no matter how much the thread grows around it. ChatGPT does not offer this at the message level. GPT Master fills that gap with per-message bookmarks: a star on any message stores it in the Bookmarks tab, where it stays accessible and searchable for as long as you need it.
- 1
Hover the message and click the star icon
Move your cursor over any ChatGPT message. The star icon appears next to the message controls. Clicking it saves the message to your Bookmarks tab, which is the closest equivalent to pinning inside chatgpt.com.

Access your saved messages from the right panel
Open the GPT Master right panel and go to the Bookmarks tab. The Current Chat view shows messages you have starred in the open conversation. All Bookmarks shows every starred message across all chats.

Jump to the message any time
Click a bookmark entry to scroll the conversation to that message. The jump works regardless of how long the thread has grown since you saved the bookmark.

Frequently asked questions
- Does ChatGPT have a native pin feature for messages?
- No. As of this writing, ChatGPT does not offer per-message pinning. You can star entire conversations in the sidebar, but there is no way to pin a specific reply inside a thread without a third-party extension.
- How is a GPT Master bookmark different from a native ChatGPT star?
- ChatGPT's native star in the sidebar marks an entire conversation as a favorite. GPT Master bookmarks work at the message level, so you can pin a specific reply inside any conversation, regardless of whether that conversation is starred.
- Can I pin messages from multiple conversations?
- Yes. Bookmarks from different conversations all appear in the All Bookmarks view. There is no limit on which conversations the bookmarked messages come from.
