Block those who have blocked you
Now that individual unblock is active it's possible for people who you've chatted with to temporarily block you, and then quietly much later unblock and have all your chats and photos back without you knowing. There should be an option that if someone who you've chatted to blocks you then you can double block to prevent them secretly getting all this back.

Locked Photos Folder
Add an option for a folder with private photos that we can share with other profiles we choose with the ability to also unshare. It gets tiring sending multiple photos to every other person you talk to.

Let us refresh the main screen by ourselves
Let us refresh the screen by ourselves. Don't have the refresh occurring automatically. It is really annoying when you are looking at profiles and suddenly the screen refreshes and bounces back to the top again.

A better..... way for people who are HIV+/undetectable to match with others who are accepting of it and or are HIV+/undetected as well
Making something more inclusive for people who have HIV and are looking to meet people or someone that either accepts it and do not mind dating someone with HIV, or they can opt out and not show up on profiles if they do not accept it.
I always meet awesome guys but once they see that I am HIV+ they block me. It’s just a waste of my time and theirs as well.38 votes -
Have the location be more accurate and show the location along with the miles
Whenever I drag or go to a different location, it shows the same person in the different area than they originally were so I'm believing that the location isn't accurate
And when I scroll down in unlimited, it shows me the miles away but not the location or the area I'm scrolling in. I would like to see the name of area and location next to the miles shown36 votes -
Age Filter
Once you set the age filter, other than the filtered aged users should not view the profile.
Example: i set my profile age filter 25 to 35 i can view profiles in that range
I want my profile to appear only those falls under the criteria.
It should work two ways not just in my profile34 votes -

Verify identity feature
Can we add a feature to verify our identity or at least have a check mark to say you verified your identity? I’m tired of the cat fishing and multiple people have stole my pictures and posed as me too. Can we do something about this?

location/distance with message
If someone messages you, be able to see distance even if they have location setting off, but perhaps system will not allow over-ride of settings. I think some people are not even aware that location setting us off.
Also, as one person suggested, show direction of distance, whether short or long.27 votes -

Please find away to get rid of those bots! It’s annoying to have 80 messasges from these things.
These bots are definitely getting on everyone’s nerves. They send a bunch of annoying messages and have sooo many different accounts. It’s starting to ruin the whole Grindr experience.

Save guys profile with comment box and the pictures they send
Most common problem is that people lose their chat history and you don’t remember anything after a while. It would be great to be able save profiles and be able to write your comments and maybe save the pictures

Implement a verification feature to STOP spam accounts
Please implement a feature for new users to VERIFY their email address to prevent these bots and spammers from new accounts. All I get is spam from fake profiles asking me to go to a link. Its annoying, and this issue has been going on for YEARS.
Please implement that, or implement a feature like googles, where they have to select the corresponding photo that they choose for you. The spam accounts on grindr is RIDICULOUS. Please rid of them. This issue has been going on for way too long.

Allow nude profile pics with paid subscription
The free app has to be G rated, but when you pay a monthly fee it should be M rated w/nude profile pics. BC in reality this is a GAY HOOKUP SEX SITE! Everyone usually shares the same X pics anyway

Prevent multiple accounts per device
There’s a pretty consistent horror of blocking somebody and having them create a new account to come and berate you all over again.
I believe Grindr should be a safe space, and creating a one-to-one relationship between the device and the user profile should help minimise bullying on the platform by better enforcing blocks.
Other considerations: email address verification, or a minimum phone number sign up verification step. I’d also argue that members can only have 1 Grindr account per identity provider and that deleting an account creates a 30 day delay until they can re-create it.
