Images within community guidelines, removed
I thought Grindr was not only sex-positive but also kink-positive?
I’m into ABDL, and also pupplay. With the former, I can’t upload a padded photo of myself without it going through moderation and being refused.
The photos being refused are of me (well above legal age) in a cute diaper, because that’s my thing; that’s it. It’s also a thing for lots of others on your platform, whether they publish photos related to it or not. No nudity, no minors, no breaking laws or guidelines.
It would be helpful to apply a little common sense to moderation, rather than alienating…

Banned for life without reason.
Grindr should not permanently ban users after 1 community guideline offense and then tell them they cannot provide a reason. First off, as a brand, this makes app users very skeptical. Secondly, there should at least be a two strikes rules or different levels of severity. I’m seeing numerous complaints from users that they were banned for no reason (as is my situation).
As marginalized members of society, we already don’t have the same privileges as others. To take away one of the only tools available to find a romantic partner without reason is unfair, against the core values of…

2 step verification
I know it's probably been suggested but 2 step verification is the best way to stop bots posting spam links. Please listen to your users and get it done

Information Icon/Pop-Up for Tags
It’s not always clear the true/intended meaning or full word of a tag, an (i) icon beside the tag (especially for acronyms/abbreviations) allowing the user to click to reveal additional info.
E.g.
Is “ltr” for “long term relationship” or “later”?

Conservar las conversaciones de quién te bloquea para tener evidencia de agrecion o discriminación y poder hacer el debido reporte
Hay personas que te atacan y luego te bloquean.. y al perderse el chat también se pierde la evidencia de la agrecion

RE: Grindr Feedback page "VOTE" option should be YES or NO - this would help Grindr in decision making based on idea based on user votes
RE: Grindr Feedback page "VOTE" option should be YES (I agree) or NO (I do not agree)
This would/could help Grindr in decision making for a:
An absolute fix, new requirement or feature, bringing back functionalities, cost related complaints, current pain points, other issues, etc...All VOTES would count and be based on REAL votes taken from a user/users.
An expiry date with the YES or NO decision noted can display, upon expired idea timeframe/voting timeframe.
If VOTE is expired, then both YES or NO boxes are not available for users.
Also maybe Grindr can send an alert to all…

Tap flag. Shows if youve tapped someone in the past
Add a feature when you view a profile that shows you if you've tapped someone before and how long ago it was. Ex: a banner on the profile that says you tapped 6 days ago etc. Also add a tab where you can see who you've tapped similar to the current tap tab

spammer web sites
I get messages almost every day with a single Website from a spammer.. I hope Grindr would filter or stop messages with ONLY a single URL in the message part.. would be an easy filter to program

Remove sexual health information
Refrain from the practice of showing or allowing users to type in their HIV status when they create their profile or when they have created the profile, if you care about the health of the users keep the option of reminding them to get tested after certain intervals, this creates stigma against lgbt men who are infected with the virus, we have encountered people who have written phrases on the 'about me' section like 'NO HIV POSITIVE MEN' this is very stupid because you can have sex with someone and how will you know if they do not have the…

Do not allow users to add their ethnicity
Do not allow user to type in their ethnicity when creating an account, this will lead to more people sending their real pictures instead of some picture they got from the internet, it will also reduce the number of people without profile pictures in the wake of men being targeted on this application and attacked sometimes even killed by discreet users, I also support that all users be verified so that when a crime has been committed this will help the police with investigation.

Remove the wight or mass option
The weight or mass option causes more psychological damage to queer people of a certain body weight...it sends a message to them that they must be of a certain weight to fit in or that grindr is for people of a certain weight, we as the lgbt know exactly what discrimination feels like so it would be hypocrisy for us to do the same on others.

Remove the 'about me option' and replace it with a list of descriptions to choose from
please remove the about me option it is being abused by people who post HOMOPHOBIC, BODY SHAMING and RACIST things, we often bump into phrases like NO FAT PEOPLE,NO CHUBBY, NO GIRLY GUYS, NO BLACK/WHITE/INDIAN PEOPLE, NO FEMININE MEN, NO SISSY MEN BE MANLY, BE DISCREET, NO MEXICANS be this be that...this application is supposed to be a place inclusive of all people who are different but it serves an otherwise purpose. please vote to remove the about me option and rather replace it with a list of descriptions a person can choose from, these descriptions must leave no room…

A lot of robo profiles sending messages to other users suggesting other gay websites possibly phishing and users profiles that wont load.
Prevent robo profiles from send messages of paid services and phishing gat sites to other visible member profiles.

Avise a pessoa que foi banida o motivo e como pode ser redirecionado para um debate justo, porque muitas vezes eu fui banido sem saber
Muitas vezes banido sem ter ao menos conversado com alguém

Grindr user ratings
There are many people who don’t show their face on video call, and try to cheat the other person, and some also use foul language if you reject them on the basis of their looks. So I would like to suggest a rating button so that people can rate a particular profile on basis of their behaviour towards others. Using this rating other users can get a better idea weather to approach that particular profile or not. A poor rating means not trustworthy profile, a good rating means a trust worthy profile and can be approached.!
