Safety and privacy of gay men.
This isn’t to bash anyone or discriminate against any gender or gender identity, but this used to be an app where gays could come to meet, hookup, chat, etc. But now with trans and CD’s making profiles on a site that wasn’t created for them, they’re taking away from the grid space that gays would otherwise have to interact. I also don’t believe that straight guys should be allowed to make profiles on grindr because I honestly believe that half of those profiles are fake and used to extract personal information from the gays that attempt to interact with them.…

Mock location
Without the simulated location feature, grindr would really be a boring, useless application, even causing users to reveal personal information about their own location, endangering themselves. so i canceled grindr's xtra package and will use my money on another dating app, grindr admins are really stupid to ban the use of location simulator

Blocking
Right now, blocking is a four step process at its very least. Most people block more people than they speak to. And it’s a pain to go to each and every profile to do what needs being done. Many times, you may get viewed by a profile that’s not on your radar, and you may want to block it for privacy concerns. My idea is one step, multiple blocking. The same way one would select multiple pictures to delete in one go.

Trackers need to be Abolished
Stop using 500 trackers when you pay large amounts of money for paid membership. It’s a huge invasion of privacy. Despicable. If people really understood what their data I was being used for not a single person would be on this platform.

Mandatory Verified Age/Face
The fact that there are so many blank profiles or profiles held by much older men targeting younger men is unsafe. This leads to predatory behavior, and makes it easy for bots to invade the app. There should be some kind of way to make it mandatory to send a photo ID to verify the person is real.

Mass/Multiple Profile Blocking
Right now blocking is a one by one multiple step process. It’s really annoying when the same people delete and recreate accounts and keep messaging you and you have to go to each profile and individually block them. If you can at least bring the Mass/Multiple Profile Blocking ability to the Xtra/Unlimited users it would be really great!

Please have a "verified profile" service in the future.
Dear Grindr,
This "verified profile" service reduces many of the cases of crime, murder, kidnapping, robbery, fake picture accounts, etc. Sincerely,
Alexandru Serban

Location and privacy
Last update with the prohibition of mocking locations doesn't seem to be very helpful, here is my proposition.The app should use exact locations but shouldn't be seen in a precise way in the profiles, this can be made quite easy just hiding this info setting a user in a broad area you can see a example of this in the location of the sellers in other app called wallapop. if someone wants to share his precise location it can be perfectly be done in the private message Window. I think with this most people Will be happy and safer and…

Expiring photo spam
App should automatically Filter blank profiles that send only an expiring photo. I typically get a few a day. Blank profile messages nothing but an expiring photo and it's always advertising a porn site like NSAsex.net or something like that. Profile usually disappears after a few minutes as well

Photo Verification
So many scammers nowadays, they will started with a ‘hi’ and ask our preferences (boyfriend or friend), then they will tell that it’s not convenient to talk through this app. I don’t know what they are up to, but it’s getting annoying and very exhausting. I am trying to find the real ones here, not a scammers. Please do some kind of verification to prove that the owner of the account is the real person and not a scammer, maybe you can start with a ‘photo verification’, to check if the person is real or not. Or maybe any other…

Allow to block back
There should be allowance for users who have been blocked by someone the same privilege to block them back. As it is if someone blocks you they completely dissapear. It happens occasionally that I tee up a meeting, After agreeing on a time and place I then take about 1.5 hours getting dressed up and ready, the meeting time has come and gone, I log back in to find the user has blocked me, and I'm unable to block him back, which leaves the person who got blocked vunerable to this kind of behaviour from the same person again and…

Stop sharing album automatically after set time frame
I wish I could set my shared albums to automatically stop sharing after a certain timeframe. This should be customisable so the user can determine how long the album is shared for. Options should range from an hour to days or even indefinitely.

Guys asking for money
Make sure that Grindr double check profiles from guys asking for money. To many of them.
Look up for signs like: Only Gen, Gen, no free sex, etc.
Those guys shouldn't be allowed to be on Grindr asking for money.27 votes -
Promote awareness of monkeypox
Urgently post information to users helping people spot the early symptoms and rash characteristic monkeypox. This recent outbreak is in the early phases, appears to be heavily focussed on the MSM community, has potential to spread and harm, and may already involve people unaware of symptoms (Gay cis-man, Pandemic Scientist and Doctor). Email me an I will hook you up with relevant authorities.

Identity Verification
Some form of identity verification feature should be available for those of us who use photos. By performing this verification you would get a badge on your profile that you are who you say you are.

Verified users
Social media sites often offer verification to users to ensure authenticity and safety to other users when connecting.
Grindr is often used by people that are closeted, shy and discreet, therefore even a profile that is verified without a picture would increase the chances to users to connect.25 votes
