Updated 23 Oct 2026, 11:09 Amsterdam · US iPhone App Store · tracked daily since 18 Sep
Grok Bot is flat: #10 in Productivity, from #11 a week ago and #20 on 18 Sep. Grok is flat: about #41 overall on the weekly average, #35 today; it holds #7 in Productivity. X is flat at about #36 overall and #1 in News. New ratings are coming in faster for Grok and Grok Bot and X than the week before.
Apple doesn't share download numbers. So we track the next best public signals: chart position (Top Free means downloads, Top Grossing means money spent in the app) and how many people have left a rating.
“100+” means the app is outside that chart's top 100. It's not missing data.
We compare each app's average US rank over the last 7 days with the 7 days before. A move of 3 places or fewer counts as flat. A smaller number is better: #1 is the top, so ▲ means it climbed.

How the label is set: Grok uses overall downloads, Productivity downloads and overall revenue; Grok Bot uses Productivity downloads; X uses overall downloads and News downloads. More charts climbing than falling = Gaining; more falling = Cooling. Charts marked “context” are shown but don't count. Ratings speed compares the last 7 days with the 7 before (±10% = steady).
Today (23 Oct 2026) compared with 16 Oct 2026. ▲ = climbed, ▼ = fell. New ratings are counted over the same days.

Compared with 22 Oct 2026. ▲ = climbed, ▼ = fell. Apple updates rating counts every day or two, so a “+0” day followed by a double-sized day is normal.

These apps are free to download. Downloads (solid line) = Apple's Top Free chart. Revenue (dashed line) = Top Grossing, money spent in the app such as SuperGrok. That's not Apple's “Top Paid” list of apps that cost $0.99–$10 up front. A smaller number is better: #1 is the top, so a line rising on the chart is climbing. Hollow dots are third-party estimates (Appfigures, Similarweb, Ember and others); solid dots are our own daily Apple data.
Grok Bot is in the overall top 100 (#85 on 17 Oct, #97 on 18 Oct, #91 on 22 Oct, #69 on 23 Oct). Its main chart is still Productivity, below.
This is Grok Bot's real chart. Downloads #22 → #10 since 16 Sep. Revenue #33 → #25 since 18 Sep.
Hollow dots are third-party reports; our own daily News rank starts 11 Oct 2026 (an earlier bug checked the wrong Apple chart).
Each app has its own scale: X has 11.13M ratings and Grok Bot 13.6k, so one shared scale would flatten the small ones. Grok: 0 (Jan 2025) → 800k (Dec 2025) → 1.0M (Mar 2026) → 1.53M now. It's adding about 3.2k a day lately, faster than year one (about 2.3k a day).
Other free public signals, to check the App Store story. ▲ = rising, ▼ = falling, → = about the same (within 5%).

#2,646 ▲ grok.com, was #2,770 |
#47 ▲ x.com, was #50 |
#112 ▼ chatgpt.com, was #74 |
The scale is stretched (each step is 10× the one below) so a small page like Grok's and a big one like ChatGPT's both fit.
Grok Bot has no Wikipedia page and our Google Play check didn't find a listing for it, so it's not in this table. Tranco is a free research list of the world's top websites, averaged over 30 days, so it moves slowly. Cloudflare Radar's site ranking needs an API key, so it's not used.

Google Play's US top charts, checked once a day. Top Free means downloads, Top Grossing means money spent in the app. Google Play lists 200 apps per chart, so “200+” means outside the top 200. It's not missing data.
Google files X under News & Magazines, and Grok and Grok Bot under Productivity.
