The Grok android app is terrible in that sense. Just writing a question with a normal speed will make half of the characters not appear due to whatever unoptimized shit the app does after each keystroke.

Sounds quite overengineered. CEOs have basically no idea what they're doing these days. If this were my company, I'd start by cutting 80% of staff and 80% of the code bloat.
Don't know if this is satire, but I do wonder if Musk uses the Grok app himself.
As someone who knows xAI employees, he does use it a LOT and reports bugs very often afaik
The "very often" part is wild to me. You'd think being an engineer himself[0] he'd fix the root cause: the testing process, not work as an IC QA himself.

[0] He holds the title of Chief Engineer at SpaceX.

Holding the title of engineer does not make one a good or capable engineer.
Does he use Android?
Even if he does, he for sure doesn't use a cheap and slow phone ordinary people use.
