Grok Bot has expanded its integration with the Apple ecosystem significantly. The Mac app can now use the content of the Messages, Mail, Notes, Reminders, Calendar, and Contacts apps, in addition to accessing our location. Grok Bot announced this on X, as it continues to evolve to compete with OpenAI’s Dots or Meta’s Muse.
From checking messages to organizing our schedule
With these connections, the assistant can now work with the information from these six Apple apps and with our location, which opens the door to tasks that tie together emails, conversations, notes, and calendar appointments. We can, of course, turn access to each of those apps on or off individually as we see fit.
This expansion will let Grok, for example, find information from a conversation and use it to prepare a task or a reminder. It’s the same kind of interaction we’re also seeing in Dots, Muse, and the other agents from the main artificial intelligence companies.
Grok Bot came to the iPhone and Mac in August, and later on the iPad. In October it got its own email address and started using Claude‘s technology. Now it has reached version 1.0 and is no longer in beta.
Although exactly what each Grok Bot feature can do remains to be seen, it’s clear that the general intention is for us to give access to all our information. Useful? Absolutely. Something to consider very carefully? Yes, clearly.
