Get Grok

Grok is available inside X (formerly known as Twitter) both on Windows and on Andriod phones and iPhones. When using Grok on phones it will suggest that you install the Grok app, which you find in the Google Play Store In Android phones and in the Apple App Store on iPhones.

You will find apps in the Microsoft Store, which sounds like they are Grok – they are not!

Grok supports anonymous usage or authentication using X, Google Account, Apple Account or an email/password combination.

Use Grok in a browser (and get the “app”)

On a Windows PC, you can use Grok in a browser by navigating to https://grok.com. On Microsoft Edge and on Google Chrome, you will get a small icon in the right side of the address bar, indicating that there is an app available. Click that to get a shortcut on the desktop or in the taskbar to launch Grok.

So, how does Grok handle the magic prompt…

Fast and with a nice quality.

A nice extra detail is that if you navigate to Groks Imagine tab, you will get a seemingly never ending list of images generated, which you can pick from:
