To use GTA 5 cheats on PlayStation ( PS5, PS4, PS3) and Xbox ( Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Xbox 360) enter the codes using your controller, or by dialling the numbers listed into your in-game cellphone. For PC, you can either use the cellphone or type the codes into the game's console (bring that up with the tilde key: ~ on US keyboards, ¬ on UK keyboards). More info here.
Using any cheats in GTA 5 will disable Achievements and Trophies for the rest of your session, so always save your game before using them. To start earning rewards again you'll need to reload your last save — you can't just disable your cheats (by entering the same code again) and then carry on playing.

Tips for Using GTA 5 cheats
Save your game progress before you before use any cheats and make sure you load that same saved game up when you are finished using them.
You can't earn Achievements or Trophies if cheats have been active in your current session.
To earn Achievements or Trophies again, you need to load up your last "clean" saved game, the one you made before you started using cheats.
You can complete missions and pastimes if you have used cheats in your current session, but as noted above, you will not be able to earn Trophies.
Several cheats, such as the invincibility cheat, will not work during missions or pastimes. Instead, you will get the following message you when try and activate them: "Cheat denied: Not available on a mission or pastime." If you start a mission/pastime with those cheats already active, they will be deactivated automatically.
This is the message you'll see if you try and activate a cheat like invincibility during a mission.
If something isn't spawning for you when you enter the cheat, try moving into a bigger space, so that it has more room to spawn. This also helps you avoid accidentally destroying the vehicle or getting it stuck in an inaccessible area. Press the button combinations quickly. If you aren't fast enough, the game won't recognize the cheat code.

Why can't I use my parachute after activating the Skyfall cheat code?
We don't know why you can't use your parachute (it's a known issue in the game), but to survive the landing you should try to land head first into the ground or a wall. As silly as it sounds, it's the only thing we have found that works.
