Show us guys from more than just the past hour
Give us the option to see the past two hours, the past four hours, the past eight hours, the past day, the past two days, three days, etc. It would make the app a million times more amazing.

Stop automatic refreshing
Sometimes when I return to the thumbnail feed after viewing a profile or using another app, I see a guy that I want to message, but then the feed automatically refreshes and the guy disappears :( Sometimes, if I am lucky I can find him again after searching carefully, but most of the time he is completely lost. This has caused me SO much frustration. PLEASE end this!
(A possible alternative to automatic refreshing would be to make a 'refresh' icon hover at the top of the feed/screen when it comes time to refresh, but allow us USERS to click…413 votes -
Keyword search
In order to compete with services like meetup, tinder, OkCupid, etc., some added search functionality like by keywords could re-invigorate Grindr usage. One thing that comes to mind is keyword search in profiles. “Show me people in the general vicinity that have an interest in art” (or cars, or skydiving)

List of popular places and events
A list of places such as bars, coffee shops, clubs, etc. could be made available to the users for them to post on and review. The posts could also serve a place where people organize events. It could even be linked to an event page. This would encourage users to meet in real life, especially if the life of places are sorted by location, popularity, and activeness.
As a plus, users could also subscribe to places they like, and be notified when there is an event happening there, or when someone posts something on the page of the place.

Find ways to make it easier for people who are looking for an actual relationship.
NOT EVERYONE IS LOOKING FOR A HOOK-UP!
I feel like we should have some type of icon that assign us with different community on the website. For instance we could use a heart for relationship, and it’ll only show on our home screen the list of people who are looking for a relationship, an icon with a eggplant or a peach for people who are looking for ****** conquest. Including a glass with alcohol in it to symbolize a casual thing, you’re neutral, you can do either a hook up, date, or drink.. then lastly a plate of food to…206 votes -

Add a status and filter for “visiting”
Knowing if someone is local and you’re likely to see again or just visiting for a short time, and having the ability to filter as a function of this status, would be tremendously useful. Other apps partly support this feature and I’ve akways been surprised not to see it in Grindr.
