Grok Bot download: get the app for Mac, Windows, iPhone and Android
The official Grok Bot download is at x.ai/bot for Mac, Windows and Linux, and in the App Store and on Google Play for phones. Grok Bot is made by SpaceXSI (formerly xAI), and it's a separate app from Grok: most people sign in with a Cursor account. You'll also need a plan that includes Grok Bot, which starts at $30 a month.
Where to get it
Computer: download it from x.ai/bot. Phone: the App Store or Google Play, published as Grok Bot.
Stick to those, plus your Cursor dashboard if you're on a team. More on why below.
Grok Bot download: every device and what it needs
| Device | What it needs | Where to get it |
|---|---|---|
| Mac | Apple silicon or Intel | x.ai/bot |
| Windows | x64 or Arm64 | x.ai/bot |
| Linux | x64 or Arm64 (.deb, .rpm or AppImage) | x.ai/bot |
| iPhone | iOS 18 or later | App Store |
| iPad | iPadOS 18 or later (the iPhone app runs on it) | App Store |
| Android | Android 9 or later | Google Play (ai.x.grok.bot) |
On a team, there's a second place to look: the Grok Bot page of your Cursor dashboard has a "Download Grok Bot" row that installs the app or copies a link you can share.
Grok Bot app login: which account you sign in with
This trips up a lot of people. You don't sign in to Grok Bot with a Grok account.
Most people sign in with a Cursor account, in a browser window the app opens for you. A few take another path: if your access comes from a Grok Business seat, pick "Sign in with Grok" in the browser, and some people link a SuperGrok or X Premium+ account instead.
Once you're in, the app makes your first Bot for you. On your phone, use the same account. If the sign-in loops or never finishes, the steps that help are in Grok Bot not working.
What you need before the Grok Bot app works
A plan. The app by itself won't do much.
Grok Bot comes with the Premium, Super and Ultra plans, which are $30, $100 and $200 a month. The Free and Plus plans don't include it. Some accounts see a "Start Trial" button on the web or desktop, which gives you a bit of usage to spend within 7 days. Android has no in-app trial.
Subscribing from the phone app only offers monthly individual plans. For yearly billing, a team or a company plan, subscribe on the web instead.
Not sure which plan you'd need? The Grok Bot pricing guide has the numbers and a calculator. Once you have a plan, how to use Grok Bot walks through the first setup.
Download the Grok Bot app only from x.ai/bot or the app stores
Search results for "Grok Bot download" (November 10, 2026) included a listing on a general software site and a differently named Microsoft Store app that says it's "for" Grok. Neither comes from SpaceXSI.
That matters more than usual here. A Bot signs in to your real accounts, so a copycat installer is the worst kind of app to get wrong. Use x.ai/bot, your Cursor dashboard, the App Store or Google Play, and on Android check that the listing's package name is ai.x.grok.bot.
Once your Bot is installed and signed in, you can also text it from AgentMsgr, next to agents from other companies. Start free or text the demo room.
Keeping the Grok Bot app up to date
Mostly it looks after itself. The desktop app checks for updates on its own, and you can check by hand in Settings, under Updates.
One rule to know: once your version is more than 14 days old and a newer one is out, the app makes you update before you carry on. On Linux, .deb and .rpm installs update through your package manager. Phones update through their stores.
Other ways to reach a Grok Bot without the app
You don't always need the app open. You can message a Bot in Slack, in X Chat, or by tagging it in a post on X. Each one is covered in where you can message a Grok Bot. To put a Bot in a group chat with your coworkers, share it with your team, connect it to Slack and mention it in a channel.

Which Grok Bot app do you need?
Can I use Grok Bot in a web browser?
There's no Grok Bot web app, but you can chat with your Bots in X Chat on x.com, on Premium or higher. Grok Bot's help pages say X Chat is reaching accounts gradually and needs the latest X app.
Do I need the desktop app if I have the phone app?
For everyday chats, not really: the same Bots and conversations sync to every device you sign in on, and you can start a group from the phone too. Keep a computer handy for upkeep, though. Grok Bot's troubleshooting page says updating and recovering the Bot's computer need the desktop app.
Is the Grok Bot app the same as the Grok app?
No. They're two different apps from the same company. Grok is the chat app. Grok Bot is the one where you set up Bots that do jobs for you, and it signs in with a Cursor account rather than a Grok one.
