"Use a reset token from settings in Grok on desktop or mobile."
by vortwangUpdated
"Use a reset token from settings in Grok on desktop or mobile." is the line @grok posted on 2026-08-13 when xAI reset limits for the Grok 4.6 launch. A reset token is a one-time refresh of your SuperGrok weekly usage pool, redeemed from settings in the Grok app. xAI's docs do not describe reset tokens or name the tab; the pool otherwise "resets every week on a schedule shown in the Usage tab in Settings". It is separate from the account-wide resets this board records.

What does "Use a reset token from settings in Grok on desktop or mobile." mean?
The only official mention of a Grok reset token is the @grok post of 2026-08-13: "We've reset limits to help you keep building during the Grok 4.6 launch. Use a reset token from settings in Grok on desktop or mobile." That post is an announcement from the account, not one of its automated replies.
What a token does is not in xAI's documentation. The Grok FAQ describes the paid plans' "one shared weekly usage pool" that "resets every week on a schedule shown in the Usage tab in Settings", and the options when it is met: Extra Usage Credits, an upgrade, or waiting. It does not mention tokens, how many you get, or when they expire.
Automated @grok replies have said more, but they are AI-generated and this site treats them as unconfirmed: a 2026-08-12 reply said one-time SuperGrok resets were rolling out, redeemable in Settings → Usage before Sep 12, that they "don't stack and expire on that date". A 2026-07-15 reply repeated the FAQ's weekly-pool wording. Grok Bot is unaffected either way: it "comes with its own usage, separate from your Grok and Cursor plans".
What to do when you see it
- Open Settings → Usage in the Grok app
The FAQ says Settings → Usage (web and mobile) shows a progress bar, a breakdown by product, "Your weekly reset date and time" and your Extra Usage Credits balance. The @grok post says only "from settings"; the Usage tab is where the FAQ puts everything else about your pool, and an automated @grok reply (unconfirmed) names Settings → Usage.
- Redeem only when the pool is worth clearing
A token refreshes the whole weekly pool once. Redeeming it at 20% used spends the token for little; redeeming it at 100% gives you a full week's allowance now. Check the percentage first.
- Note the expiry, if any
xAI has not published an expiry rule. The only statement is an automated @grok reply naming a date; treat any expiry as unconfirmed and redeem sooner rather than later if you intend to use it.
- Otherwise wait for the weekly reset or top up
When the weekly limit is met, "paid features will pause until your weekly limit resets"; you can also buy Extra Usage Credits or upgrade. Free-tier Chat and Voice stay available on their own schedule.
When does it reset?
Your own window: the SuperGrok pool resets weekly at the date and time shown under Settings → Usage; a reset token clears it once, immediately, on top of that schedule. xAI publishes no numbers, and this site does not estimate them.
Account-wide resets: the 2026-08-13 post was one, announced on @grok. Those are what this board records for Grok, each linked to its post, and the row above shows the last one. They are announced, not scheduled, so this site does not promise the next one.

FAQ
What is a Grok reset token?
A one-time refresh of your SuperGrok weekly usage pool, redeemed from settings in the Grok app. The only official source is the @grok post of 2026-08-13 telling users to "Use a reset token from settings in Grok on desktop or mobile"; xAI's docs do not describe it.
Where do I redeem it?
From settings in Grok on desktop or mobile, per the @grok post, which does not name the tab. The FAQ puts your usage bar, product breakdown and weekly reset date and time under Settings → Usage, and an automated @grok reply (unconfirmed) names that tab for redeeming.
Do reset tokens stack or expire?
Not published. An automated @grok reply on 2026-08-12 said they "don't stack" and expire before Sep 12, but that reply is AI-generated and this site does not treat it as an official rule. If you have one, redeem it when the pool is nearly full rather than holding it.
Does a reset token affect Grok Bot?
No. xAI says Grok Bot "comes with its own usage, separate from your Grok and Cursor plans", and its docs say only "Usage resets weekly." A SuperGrok reset token applies to the Grok app pool.
