- As of
TL;DR: Similarweb estimates the Grok app for iPhone and Android had 93,386,567 monthly active users in October 2026, plus 12,731,752 downloads. Both figures rose a little over 3% from September, according to the Similarweb chart shared on X on November 9. These are third-party estimates, not numbers reported by xAI.
The numbers
The figures come from a Similarweb chart titled "Grok's App Performance: October 2026," which covers Android and iPhone worldwide. It was posted on X by @cb_doge on November 9 and picked up by TeslaNorth and FourWeekMBA.
| Measure (October 2026) | Similarweb estimate | Change vs. September | |---|---|---| | Monthly active users | 93,386,567 | +3.32% | | Store downloads | 12,731,752 | +3.57% |
How to read them
- Users and downloads are different things. Monthly active users counts activity during the month. Downloads counts installs. The two should not be added together.
- It's the standalone app only. Grok also runs inside X, on grok.com and in Tesla vehicles. This chart does not measure those.
- Devices stand in for people. As TeslaNorth notes, Similarweb treats each unique device as one user, so this is not a count of individual people or paying accounts.
- It's not Grok Bot. Grok Bot, the task-focused agent assistant, is a separate product, and these app numbers say nothing about its subscribers.
Why it matters
Steady month-over-month gains suggest the Grok app is holding onto its audience as features like Grok Imagine and voice chat keep landing. xAI has not published its own October app figures, so for now Similarweb's estimate is the best public read.
