OpenAI's Sora Is Now Available as an Android App: Everything New Inside

OpenAI's Sora app, previously topping iOS charts with 1 million downloads in five days, is now on Android in seven countries to compete with TikTok and Meta.

  • On Tuesday, November 4, 2025, OpenAI launched the Sora app on Google Play Store, making it available in the U.S., Canada, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand and Vietnam beyond iOS.
  • OpenAI first released Sora on iOS, where it amassed more than 1 million downloads within days and recently rescinded the waitlist for limited markets after an invite-only rollout.
  • One standout feature is the 'Cameos' feature, which lets users record a one-time video to create reusable likeness avatars others can use, while downloaded clips include a Sora watermark.
  • Expanding to Android is expected to attract a larger user base and intensify competition with TikTok, Instagram, and Meta, even as OpenAI faces criticism over disrespectful AI clips and copyright issues.
  • Looking ahead, the Sora Team intends to expand to Europe, add basic video editing, explore licensing for character cameos, and offer a free tier with generous limits versus Google's Veo 2.
