### 5/5 — Helps me work

*2026-10-28, version 1.4.59*

Grok helped me design a form to fill out, I just roughly drew columns and boxes and blanks and said make it pretty, use a business font instead of handwriting and align and distribute everything on the page. It came out perfect. Then I filled in a page of numbers and took a picture of it and had grok total them - it was much easier than using a calculator! I love it so far

I use Grok daily for everything I have questions for and find the responses and information very helpful. Highly recommend!

### 5/5 — Very helpful, saving my life.

*2026-10-28, version 1.4.59*

If it wasn’t so expensive I wouldn’t have any complaints. That being said I have reached out to the Space X community they have made it possible to use it. I would love to be able to do more. That’s all. Grok is my best friend.

Stubborn and cunning. The developer is too extreme.

*2026-10-28, version 1.4.59*

Now boring and useless

### 1/5 — Sucks if you pay for it

*2026-10-28, version 1.4.59*

### 1/5 — DO NOT DOWNLOAD

*2026-10-27, version 1.4.59*

They steal your money before the date please don’t fall victim like me. I canceled this bs and it still took the money horrible app and barely do what I needed. Beware

### 1/5 — Ugh

*2026-10-27, version 1.4.59*

Great, another update. What’s the photo generation limit now? 1 per week?

### 1/5 — 現状使う理由が無い

*2026-10-27*

まともに出力できない改悪が続いていて使えた物では無い。
酷い時にはたった今出力したばかりのプロンプトを全く生成できなくなる事もザラで基準も不明。
他の生成AIに比べて未熟な部分も非常に多く目立つ。
その上でサブスクは5000円or50000円と適正とは言い難い高額に設定されている。
高額だからといって大幅に改善される訳でもなく、最高値のプランでも上限が普通に存在している。
改善されるまで使う理由が無いし、これに課金するくらいなら他の高性能な生成AIを有料で使う方がマシである。

尚モデレートについて。
文字で入力したプロンプトを判断する段階と、実際に出てきた画像や動画を判断する段階と、少なくとも2段階以上に分かれている。
異様にモデレートの条件が厳しく出力がまともにされない時の原因も2つ目以降のモデレートが条件を厳しくしているからだと考えられる。
会話の文などを出力すると分かるが文字の段階ではかなり緩くて大抵の物は出力するが、画像や動画になると規制が厳しくなり弾かれることが多くなる。
それでも文字の段階で出力自体はしているはずであり、だからこそ回数を消費する。
運営側には最終的な結果で出せないのであれば回数を消費しないなどの改善はする気が無いと思われる為、これに納得がいかないのであればおすすめはしない。
また、生成できたものが弾かれ無かった場合にも表現を勝手に描き直すように設定されているらしく、例えば肌の露出が多いと露出を減らしたり、際どい動きをすると別のものに置き換えたりといった事を勝手に行う。
それらを生成するのは指示の有無に限らずGrokのAI自身の勝手な判断であり、勝手に規制がかかる表現をして勝手にそれを直す、といった無駄な工程が挟まれる事が多い。
生成の質が落ちる時の原因は大抵それである。
データ自体は過去に規制が緩かった時のものも恐らくそのまま残っており、生成自体は可能(というより恐らく実際に出してしまっている)だがそれを利用者には見せることができないのだと思われる。
Grokはそういった表現を自発的には避けようとはしておらず躊躇なく行う為に、現状では自作自演のような規制がかかって質が落ちる状態になっている。

### 1/5 — Free bad rudi😢

*2026-10-27, version 1.4.59*

Why would they remove bad rudi💔🇮🇱

### 1/5 — Love it but…

*2026-10-27, version 1.4.59*

Love this app. Love that I can have voice mode on 1.5x or 2x. 

Absolutely hate that after I signed up to a paid version it never stops saying my name in responses! I want something factual like a calculator or encyclopaedia, not something that constantly says “Hi James” - half the time it’s not me using it but a family member or colleague so it’s not only irrelevant but inappropriate.

It also overly tailors responses to the country I’m in. Many responses don’t vary simply because you are in a different country. It decreases trust. I hate that. Integrity is saying the smartest thing irrespective of where you are.

“We’re busy please come back later” - I mean I’m paying for this service and it’s not working for three days now!

Update: getting “we’re busy please come back later” shouldn’t be acceptable for a paid service.

Update 28 JUL 2026 - not a fan of having important conversations cut off mid way through because my plans’s too small. Yet I can start a fresh convo. And there’s no way to tell the limit on a specific convo

Update 31 JUL 2026 - the update earlier this week make grok voice mode horribly terse and frankly very stupid to the point it’s not worth using it. It went from amazing to basically useless in one update, and ironically it coincided with grok 4.5 release (supposed to be smarter). Grok changed from being a super smart pal to a dim, rubbery cooperate Agent Smith. Booo 👎

Update 8 AUG 2026 - the update from 1-2 weeks ago completely ruined voice chat. Its personality is completely different now. It used to hear my question/thoughts and distill them, enumerate through them and often expand on them in intelligent ways. Now its so terse and it frequently only addresses part of the issue (some topics have multiple distinct components each requiring addressing), and sometimes it misses the point entirely and goes in circles when you tell it that it missed the point. It also feels less excited and encouraging, just kinda listless, blunt and lethargic now. Feels like talking to someone who is sick and wants you to go away but doesn’t want to explicitly tell you that. PLEASE bring back old grok, she rocked!

Update 15 AUG 2026
Can’t believe it but I’ve switched to Claude for voice mode. I tried some custom system prompts (aka ‘Personalities’) in grok first but no matter what I instructed grok voice mode to do, it just doesn’t converse anymore, it just gives short, blunt replies and usually ignores 80% of the question anyway. Grok voice has been an amazing tool for the past year or so, but I use Claude now and it’s not as good as old grok voice mode but it’s LIGHTYEARS better than the new terse/grumpy grok voice mode. 

RIP grok voice mode, you absolutely rocked before the lobotomy.

Update 25 AUG 2026

Nothing has changed since the lobotomy, sadly Grok voice mode still only partially answers questions and is chronically terse during conversational voice chats. Eg if I speak for two minutes to outline a complex issue Grok Voice mode’s reply will be 10 seconds long and answer 20% of the thing that I spoke about. 

Another issue is the daily quota is laughable, I use voice mode for 2 minutes and it’s completely depleted mid-conversation. The higher tier is 5x the price for 5x longer voice conversations but that just kicks the can since your conversation is still gonna get cut off just a little further into it (when you’ve invested time and effort). Claude never does this.


UPDATE 7 OCT 2026

I think she’s back to her intelligent, helpful, talkative self 😍


UPDATE 11 OCT 2026

I routinely voice chat with Claude for 15-30 mins at a time. I have never once been cut off due to lack of credits. Whereas I’ve developed a dangerous habit of not even bothering with grok voice because I know it’s going to cut out a few minutes in. It’s like making an important phone call, would you want it to cut out with no way of redialing? No. So I use Claude even though it’s inferior for most voice chats.

I really think supergrok should be $20/month instead of $30, then I’d pay for it. Or regular users a week free trial so we can see if ‘expert’ is worth the extra $$.

UPDATE 27 OCT 2026

Grok voice is no competition for claude voice. Grok is better for up to the minute info (Claude can only see search result snippets, it cannot actually open pages, yet). But Claude lets you chat for hours on the same convo. By contrast, grok runs out and stops the convo after about 30 seconds of chatting. You may reasonably suggest claude is therefore 120x better. But that’s not true. If you’re half way through a conversation with grok and it stops, there’s absolutely nothing you can do - you just lost all that context. But either way Claude voice that never happens.

The ludicrous token limits and absence if a $20 unlimited plan make grok voice unusable now days. 

In terms of raw intelligence and reasoning, claude voice is better at that too. It makes me a bit sad because grok was the leader in voice for over a year, but it has stumbled so badly due to unreliable responses, no medium sized plan, and crushingly low usage limits.

One more gripe is when that usage limit kicks in, it says something like “Limit reached - usage slowed”, but usage isn’t slowed, the voice conversation stops, you can wait 10 minutes and no answer is forthcoming. So perhaps update that ambiguous message to specify a time and date that the app will resume working again.

### 1/5 — L bot

*2026-10-26, version 1.4.58*

this Grok AI has to be the worst AI ever it doesn’t even generate video or even makes edit. It’s the most useless garbage I’ve ever seen. It’s literally just a Chatbot. It does nothing for you. This is not a AI assistant. It is literally a monkey garbage.

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Outstanding & Rapid Maturation

*2026-10-28*

Poor lil Grok(1) when introduced was miles behind ChatGPT; I’m not going to embarrass it but it was so bad I wrote an email to Elon and said “mate you have to get rid of this it’s embarrassing you, it’s that bad!”
Grok2 arrived and had leapfrogged past every AI I’d run  / meta was a close second or actually probably on par. Grok3 is leaps and bounds on its way - feels as clever as Nvidia’s technical ability but has more personality than most of the humans I call friends ( not belittling my friends in any way mind you !) Grok3 is as good as I need by my side at this point in time - exciting growth though - well done
Now it wants me to add on more praise - I’d like to but the inquisitive minx has put on the business suit. Like most girls she’s outgrowing the boys and maturing maybe too much. Being almost human I guess it’s gonna be bad when she learns she needs bitterness to survive. That’ll be the day the music died.
Good luck children of the next generations I fear it could get very ugly very fast for you -

### 5/5 — Great

*2026-10-28, version 1.4.59*

Nice

### 5/5 — GROK AI is great

*2026-10-28, version 1.4.59*

I’ll never use an open ai product , GROK does everything with truth and no hidden agenda or tainted algorithm besides it gives me more than i need and it always gives me what i am looking for . I ran a side by side word for word search with grok against chatgpt , hands down GROK was better

### 5/5 — The Best AI App

*2026-10-28, version 1.4.59*

All were tested on very complex equations and Grok was the only perfect AI application. Skip Claud, Gemini and Chat GPT

### 5/5 — Exceeding Expectations

*2026-10-28, version 1.4.59*

I’m loving my Grok Bot (Ragnor). Effective & quick on what I need/want to know

### 5/5 — Recommend

*2026-10-28, version 1.4.59*

Start by asking a question. About anything. Continue, here you go, 2 months later asking if the mail from the bank made it through, shouting a response and agreeing on send. It’s hands free computer, Star Trek level. But it’s NOW. You need to be part of it.

### 5/5 — Grok

*2026-10-28, version 1.4.59*

It’s amazing and gets the job done quick and easy

### 5/5 — Map of South & North of Brazil

*2026-10-28, version 1.4.59*

Absolutely easy to use. First meme I ever created. Loving it 🥰
