Spammers
Block Spam by introducing spam control measures! Spam bots don't register a in the viewed you tab. Silently introduce an anti spam feature where you cannot tap, message or do anything until you've spent atleast 5 seconds viewing their profile, or enough time that you would have atleast registered as 'viewed me' in the event they are 'incognito'. Additionally, introduce a feature where you can't tap or message a new profile within 60 seconds of tapping or within 3 minutes of messaging someone.

Unlimited Explore Profiles! Bring back
The Explore feature used to let us view and chat with UNLIMITED PROFILES— now, even as PAYING USERS, we’re restricted to just 5 profiles a day. What used to be one of the best parts of Grindr now feels like a downgrade, and it kills the value of the subscription. Bring back unlimited Explore!

Bring back the favorites tab
Please bring back the favorites tab at the bottom of the screen. The new format sucks. I can’t search for notes that I had put on my favorites anymore

Get rid of the grunt sound when tapping
This is just foolish, and until you allow users to report violators who immediately block, this foolish addition deserves no time. Ridiculous.

Less intrusive ads
Currently, the ads are very intrusive, which hinders a good browsing experience. If I compare Grindr with Scruff, Scruff is definitely better because it has a better user experience since its ads are located in a specific section.

Grindr an app for Gay Men please.
Please either enable a filter to remove women and transgender people from the grid or just create a space for them. Can we gay men have something just for ourselves please? Is that too hard? Or we as gay men are obliged to give up our few safe spaces in order to be politically correct and be aligned with social justice?
Grindr is barely usable as it is right now with excessive ads, it’s fucking expensive and it’s also ridden with non gay men. This app is dying.

Give back the ability to filter favourites by notes
Filtering favourites by notes was really useful for finding the people you talk to commonly

Restore favorites feather as it was before the last update
This “favorites” feature should not be reserved for xtra users and was much more useful and appropriate with its own page and without separating those who post their location from those who don't. This reform of the favorites system is unnecessary and very annoying. Moreover, it does absolutely nothing to protect users confidentiality. Please take this in consideration and return the system to the way it was before the update.

Get rid of fake AI generated profiles
I've enjoyed Grindr for many years but in the last month or so it is becoming increasingly unusable for a gay man looking to meet other men.
The app is getting overrun with fake profiles, using AI generated photos purporting to be Transwomen. I've also seen some profiles purporting to be Cis women. The latter raises a serious question about what Grindr is - inclusivity is one thing, opening it up to all comers is quite another. Inclusivity taken to it ultimate conclusion just results in invisibility of those who Grindr started out trying to serve.

Bring back favorites tab
Switching Favorites to a filter means that every time I want to look at my favorites, I have to add the Favorite filter to my search screen. If I have other filters on, I have to reset them in order to see profiles I’ve favorited that meet those filters, forcing me to reset all my filters just to look at my favorites. This is so annoying!

Abnormally large amount of advertising messages and their aggressiveness.
Abnormally large amount of advertising messages and their aggressiveness. The Grindr application cannot be used normally because of this. You can avoid this by paying a membership fee, but the prices are too high. It has to stop.

Favorites starred tab
Please consider putting favorites/starred profiles back where it was, or at least separate it from the other search tabs (online, position, etc). It is not the same with favorites as looking at other profiles. Having to change 2-3 tabs just to see my whole fave list is irritating.

Please get rid of the AI
I understand the desire for AI functionality. I’m not even telling you to delete it altogether. However, the feature feeds off my private information that I would like to be kept in between me and users I message. Yet it’s going to use my data to sell whatever back to me. I don’t want it and I opted out clearly. However every single time I open the app it gives me the choice to accept or decline. Probably 30 times by now. I’m tired of having to decline every time when I know if I accept, it’ll never pop up…

Tone down the ads
The ads are outrageous. I dislike mid typing for an Ad to pop up when trying to message someone back. The app has gotten worse over the last few years. Tone down the ads at least not pop up during your mid typing message.

Using "Right Now" by mistake.
The "Right Now" feature on Grindr is great for quick connections, but its instant activation from a single tap on the home screen has created a problem, specially for big bears with big fingers like me. Users often accidentally activate the 60-minute session, and since it's a paid feature, this results in unwanted charges and frustration.
To fix this, I suggest implementing a confirmation pop-up before the "Right Now" session actually starts. This would give users a chance to confirm their intent, preventing accidental spending.
Here's an example of what the pop-up text could look like:
Are you sure you…

Age filter
Earlier I could filter any age group in the age like 18-18, 21-23, but now if I want to set an age it is fixed at at gap of 6 like 26-31 and it doesn't go any lower like just 1/2/3/4/5 age gap. That's ridiculous. I am forced to see people of age I don't want to.
