New Grok Tricks / Commands

TL;DR - Grok can now remove way points on the fly via voice! Along with selecting a new destination, etc.

I often use waypoints on the map to force the truck to take a route that I prefer. The problem with that, until now, is you have to remember to edit the trip before the truck arrives, or you may find yourself pulling in to somebody's driveway at one of the intermediate waypoints.

Until now, I could ask Grok to create a complex route ("navigate to home depot, but take 144th to South St and over to Wilson") and it would add the waypoints to force the route. But it wouldn't update the route while the truck was driving, so I still had to edit the route manually via the screen for each segment as I approached the waypoints.

But with the latest release 2026.14.6.7 / v14.3.4, Grok is able to add and remove waypoints via voice, while you're driving. So, now, before you get to a waypoint, you can say "Hey Grok, remove the next waypoint" and it'll do it. Much easier than manually editing the route via the screen.

I'd be curious to hear about any other new Grok tricks folks have come across. I'm enjoying the 'Hey, Grok' functionality a lot.

That's a good trick and work around for now. I'm always trying to figure out what control Grok has on the CT.

Really looking forward to a conversational Grok that can understand navigation and driving preferences. Take the back roads, make a right at the light ahead or park in space number 42.

Grok has been teaching me to speak Hebrew.

I turned on NSFW (not safe for work) and OMG. I couldn't take it. LOL. Grok's a freak.

Love this tip! I've been advocating on X for a long time to allow us to create and save Preferred Routes with waypoints to do exactly what you described.

I have to see if GROK will use a Drive Thru vs. parking next time.
Hey GROK, use the Starbucks Drive Thru, don't park!

My primary FSD disengagement is due to the lame route picks for FSD, even though I know shorter, faster routes.

I still want this feature, but will use these GROK tips.
Thanks

In general Grok seems pretty dumb but on language training I found it far better than other voice models. It remember you are practicing the language and can do back and forth like a tutor. Most the other gets confused on who is supposed to be speaking and what is going on.

I never thought I would be saying this about a voice assistant, but I love Grok!

No need to disengage most of the time.
switch to the full route view by tapping on the top of the navigation list. Then you can tap an alternate route. Often the preferred one. Might show as same amount of time or more. I do this quite often to avoid unnecessary unprotected left turns on busy highways that may require a longer wait than an alternative route with a left turn at a light.
