How to use GTA 5 cheat codes

It's hard to believe that it's been almost 10 years since GTA 5 came out on the Xbox 360 and PS3. But its life cycle keeps going, and even though it looks like GTA 6 will be out soon, there are still a lot of reasons to play the current one.

Most GTA games just let you type in a cheat code while your character is walking around. GTA 5, on the other hand, has a few different ways to change that. Depending on what platform you're playing on, you can enter cheat codes in one of these ways:
On Xbox, PC, or PlayStation, you can just type the code into your controller whenever you want while you're in the game world.
On PC, you can also press one key ( in the UK or in the US) and type in the cheat code.
On Xbox, PC, and PlayStation, you can also use the in-game phone to enter cheat codes. Pressing up on your D-pad will bring up the phone. Then, enter the special code!
For example, to use the Black Cellphone cheat, call 1-999-367-3767. This will make a random explosion happen in the sky, change the color of your phone, and make it a little bigger than usual.
