All the fake / scam profiles
Take all of your algorithms and AI and instead of stalking and targeting those of us trying to use the app as intended....how about you actively focus on eliminating the BS, the FO requests, the solicitations and links to other sites...instead of just saying you are trying. YOU ARE NOT MAKING ANY EFFORT....it is worse than ever! And while you are at it...YES, advertising may be necessary...but the sneaky ads that are impossible to close are engineered that way....there is no accident here. All this tech you make us sign off that we accept and instead of making the platform…

Easier to report bots
Please make it easier to report bots, rather than multiple click-through pages to hide a bot from my grid. And better yet, actually investigate reported bots and take down profiles that use the same profile picture.

Can’t filter by exact age, the filter defaults to five years.
I pay for XTRA, I was previously able to filter by exact age, now the filter spans a range of five years and will not allow me to filter by exact age. What am I paying for if you keep charging more for less features?

Mandatory profile verification to prevent fake accounts.
I understand that users want secrecy and discretion, which leads them to not have a photo of their face on their profile, but in the account creation process verification should be mandatory to avoid fake accounts.

As a paying subscriber I want nons subscribers to be able to see chats and albums from people who subscribe similar to how Scruff does it.
It’s ridiculous that I’m paying for a service and the people Message on the other end can’t see chat history or albums that are unlocked

Email verification should be required!!!
Grindr is like one of the few platforms that do not require email verification to be a registered user.
This is definitely what attributes people to remain completely anonymous and act like fraudent criminals. It has allowed the level of spam and in my personal experience it has helped drive a campaign of mass community harassment and stalking fed by rumors. It should also be required for your phone number to get associated with your account. And no VoIP numbers. Legitimate numbers.
Because if people do not want to use their number and emails associated with them then they do…1 vote -
"For you" Totally useless
Option to hide "for you" as it is relevant, people are far away. Totally useless

Allow for in-app purchases without Apple App Store
I occasionally pay for Xtra. Unfortunately, as someone on an iCloud family plan- I quickly learned that my “plan organizer” gets emailed receipts from all members (regardless of me paying with Apple gift cards). This means my mom has been getting my Grindr receipts, which is a huge privacy concern.
As such, I’ve had to leave my family plan and request to rejoin any time I want to pay for a boost or membership. However, even that doesn’t feel secure since the receipt doesn’t seem to be sent out until the membership ends, which means I sometimes have to leave…

Only fully completed profiles should be allow to chat with other completed profiles
Only allow completed users profiles (basic demographic data and a real picture, we can identify fakes with AI in no time so there's no excuse for profiles pictures getting approved with landscapes) profiles that are not completed can not communicate with profiles that have the data on their profile. Its very annoying to being increpated with a blank profile asking several questions about myself when I don't even know what kind of potential creep is looking at my profile.

Get rid of all the fake trans profiles to make this app usable.
Hard to find anyone when 5/11 profiles are obviously fake and not removed after they have been reported. I would volunteer to work for free to remove them. When the same girl’s pic is used on 10+ profiles within a matter of days, you have a problem.

Ads! Too many ads! Hundreds of complaints and you've done nothing but make it worse!
How about just shorter ads. Do you want to go the way of MySpace? Get rid of these long loud ads! Boycotting until this has changed.

solo setup for big tents
Is it possible for one person to set up a large 6-8 person tent alone? My partner has a bad back so I end up doing all the work. I want a big tent for comfort but I am worried I won't be able to pitch it by myself. Are there any systems that make this easier for a solo camper?

right now
How many threads need to be made about this befote you do something about it? How many complaints via email? Is it intentional to waste our remaining uses of Right Now? Or do you think it "promotes" the feature by forcing us to try it? If so, how many accidental uses are enough before it no longer makes sense as a forced trial/promotion?
Just looking at the first two pages of results (out of hundreds when searching for threads regarding "Right Now") I got 11 posts asking for the same thing.

Reinstate unlimited photos
I can only send a max of 8 pictures to anyone in a single day. Which means 8 dudes, 1 picture each.
I hate this app because of how many catfish profiles, and some of them aren’t even hot so it’s a waste of time. We use to be able to send however many pics as we wanted, but now they’re proce gouging our community, and for some of us our only way for connecting. Who ever’s idea this was, u hope you know you failed the gay community and made it even harder to find the right love.

If you guys don’t do something about the volume of bot accounts and scammers on this app, I’m going to cancel my subscription.
If you guys don’t do something about the volume of bot accounts and scammers on this app, I’m going to cancel my subscription. I block ten or more a day, usually.
This is totally unfair to us and it only seems to be getting worse over time, so get it together or I can’t justify continuing to use this app.

Spam auto-blocking
It’s really not that hard to detect a conversation where the first message is a web link and suspend the related account, is it?!
It would be great if the Grindr product managers pulled their heads out of their asses and did the bare minimum to stop spammers before they annoy everyone. Users aren't (only) cash cows, respect their time and experience.
