The iOS app is now listed on Apple’s App Store, and is currently available in beta in “Australia and a few countries” according to TechCrunch.
This confirms rumors that started circulating in November regarding X developing a standalone app for its Grok chatbot. There’s no word yet on when a version will be made available to Android users.

We didn’t all flock to a new platform or build on a thrilling new protocol. We went everywhere, and did everything, all at once.
The “Grok 2 + Aurora” option has vanished from Grok’s model selector menu only a day after it appeared, Engadget reports, replaced by “Grok 2 + FLUX beta” instead. The model still makes photorealistic images, but it was less willing to reproduce celebrities when I asked.
X owner Elon Musk wrote yesterday that the photorealistic and largely unrestricted model is a beta “internal image generator.”
Update: Added testing detail.
