Grok Bot upgrade lets xAI's agent send messages, manage calendars and control smart home on your phone
XFreeze · x · 2026-10-23
Grok Bot received a major mobile upgrade, letting it directly interact with apps on iOS and Android to handle everyday tasks: reading and sending messages, checking calendars and creating events, managing reminders and contacts, finding nearby places, and controlling smart home devices like lights and locks. Instead of app-switching, users can simply ask the agent to get things done — a step toward a true personal phone agent. Rolling out now.
