Taps optional
The ability to disable the tap feature from your profile. This way if you do not wish to recieve taps, other users have no way of tapping you.

Can we just block the users that have "no taps" in their profile? It's a feature of this app, I like it. If you don't check your taps, don't get so butthurt about it, just ignore it.

Only if I can disable the “hey” messages.
A tap at least has a point behind it. Stop expecting people to start conversations and send you what you want and grow up. Ignore them if you don’t like their profile. Message them if you do. They already made the first step easy for you and you whine.
Profiles without anything in them shouldn’t be able to tap at most but again. Be realistic.

You guys are stupid... if your entire argument is "tap = I'm mildly interested" Well guess what, same can be said for "hi" in your inbox... also bots tapping... last time I checked they message too... so the problem isn't the tap feature, but the fact that bots exist.. removing taps won't make bots go away. Last but not least Tap usually means interest... it's just a quick way of saying hi... Because there is nothing worse than inbox full of unreplied openers... No it's much better to just tap and if the guy is interested he can tap back and then you message him.. that way it's much more likely to get actual replies.
Also the "Tap=block" profiles... I don't tap them because I didn't read their bio, I tap them because they are so annoyed and petty about this and IDGAF if he blocks me because sometimes the trash takes out itself. Fun fact: if it's a cute guy who tapped you, you don't give a fuck if he tapped or said hi, you will message him. -

I agree. Taps are just a way of saying "I'm mildly interested but overall not that interested." If there's no tap button, my time won't be wasted by someone who doesn't care. I'd be just as happy if taps were removed altogether.

Please get rid of the tsp function. It is full of spam and is annoying.

Taps are ridiculous and need to be done away with.

Taps are a fun idea, but they are used mostly by bots and scammers/spammers. I'm fine with taps, if Grindr can implement user verification to help eliminate bots and spammers.

Taps are a major tool used by spammers to establish contact, giving the possibility to users to opt-out of taps is also a way to reduce spam

I like taps, but so many people get annoyed at them (and even angry) that it makes the experience negative overall.

Grindr is enabling fake taps from fake profiles.
How else would you get taps from users who haven't even viewed your profile??? -

Taps should be able to be disabled, unless the bot taps can be stopped, Grindr needs a better way to filter out the bots!

Taps are unnecessary and a waste of time. The majority of taps are from bots and are frustrating. Disable this option and have people send a message, it more personal and will reduce the unwanted interruption that taps cause.

I would remove the taps completly. You have the chat to say 'HI' = equal to a tap but nicer.

|BOTS only uses the Tap option |
Disable it; it's a waste of time
Grinder unlimited is an insult to the users. I wonder what kind of moron would subscribe to a feature that should of been included with Grinder Xtra. Hope the company fixed it's act before it looses customers to a more competent company. -

I agree. Majority of taps are fakes and a waste of everyone's time. Give us the option to disable taps or get rid of that feature all together.

Maybe the option to receive taps can be enabled in the Grindr Unlimited class of membership.

Taps are very annoying and is pointless, people should just reach out with a message it's not that hard to do. Some profiles say "tap=block" but people still tap without reading the bio. Get rid of taps!!!
