Use this interactive demo to learn how to disable the starry background in your Grok dashboard.

Quick summary

Grok's starry background can be turned off in just a few clicks through the Appearance settings. Navigating to your Profile, opening Settings, and toggling off Enable Starry Background removes the animated backdrop instantly.


Steps

  1. On Grok's main dashboard, go to the left-side panel and click the Profile icon.
  2. Choose Settings from the list of options.
  3. Click the Appearance tab to proceed.
  4. Find Enable Starry Background and switch off the toggle button next to it.
  5. The starry background in your Grok dashboard will be turned off immediately.

📌 Why this matters

Grok's animated starry background can be visually distracting for users who prefer a cleaner, distraction-free interface during long AI chat sessions. Being able to disable the starry background through the Appearance settings gives users direct control over their Grok dashboard experience. This customization option is especially useful for users with visual sensitivity or those working in low-light environments who want a simpler, more comfortable UI.
