Claude is connecting directly to your personal apps like Spotify, Uber Eats, and TurboTax

Overview
Claude users can now access a broader range of personal applications through Anthropic’s new connectors. While Anthropic previously supported many work‑related integrations such as Microsoft apps, the latest expansion adds consumer‑focused services.
Supported Personal Apps
Anthropic lists several apps that can be linked to Claude, including:
- Audible
- Spotify
- Uber / Uber Eats
- AllTrails
- TripAdvisor
- Instacart
- TurboTax
- …and others
How It Works
When an app is connected, Claude can suggest the relevant integration within a conversation. For example, if you ask for hiking recommendations, Claude may propose using AllTrails to find trails. The connectors enable Claude to read and write data in the linked service on your behalf, subject to the permissions you grant.
Comparison with OpenAI
Some of the newly supported apps, such as Spotify, already have similar connectors in OpenAI’s ChatGPT. Anthropic’s rollout brings comparable functionality to Claude, expanding its ecosystem of third‑party integrations.
