hide instead of block
I want to ‘hide’ profiles. Not every profile is a binary decision of block entirely. A lot of times, the same profiles are nearest to me and they take up real estate in my grid. They might be friend material, or I might be interested at some point but not now. So if I could hide profiles and then toggle hidden profiles on and off with a filter that would be ideal.

Being able to send videos through chat
It would be nice to be able to send videos through chat. Most of the videos that many people would like to share are probably traveling, cooking, hiking, nature, vacation, pet, sports videos. The list goes on, it doesn’t have to be inappropriate videos that we share.

Lack of answers to specific questions
Find a way to answer specific questions and not give people a Bunch of irrevelant BS that has nothing to do with what they're trying to find out. It's like we are getting the runaround on purpose.

Video Profile Icon/Media
Would be nice if a short video could be substituted for a profile picture at least for Xtra users if not for all profiles. The option is available in virtually every other social media platform who's name rings a bell. A section to upload videos into a gallery would be acceptable also. Grindr has come a long way and I know this feature would increase user satisfaction and overall appeal of the app to new comers and old timers alike. Please consider this proposal with the others requesting the same feature.

The latest update
Usually your updates enhance the user experience incrementally, the latest update took features away. The Grindr icon at the center bottom no longer returns you to the top of the feed and the search bar at top is gone along with the distance away from where you are in the feed.

Allow Cross Platform Logins and Backup
I have 2 devices, 2 subscriptions, 1 Apple, 1 Android. I cannot restore the subscriptions if I switch them unless I'm on the device I used to register the subscription.
Additionally I cannot backup/restore the chat across platforms, they have to stay Android/Apple focused.
In essence when you buy a subscription, it's not YOU that's subscribed, it's the DEVICE you're using.
Fix it by allowing a login to your XTRA account on any device regardless of platform, and allow chat BACKUP to one solitary solution, e.g Google Drive, OneDrive, iCloud - but don't make it a mandatory selection based on…

Share cruising areas info
If you add section where people can share cruising areas in the world would be great. For people XTRA/Unlimited should be for free this info. People who are exhibitionists like me we need info about places where we can have safe fun and we can be more free. Other gay apps have same section and it's really cool. I don't want to pay double for Grindr and for other app as well...

Profile videos
Just like private pictures you are able to share with others, you should be able to have a few private personal videos that you can share with another chatter if you want to, of course private pictures and videos by permission only.

Inbetween friends, and ***.
Add a FWB (Friends With Benefits) tag to the "looking for" section. Not all of us want simple one night flings, OR a serious relationship. It would be nice to be able to find people who want to be friends and hang out, but without the immediate requirement of **, but to know that it's an option without having to wade through hundreds/thousands of users who are only interested in ** only or PG-13 only. FWB would be a great middle ground for users like us.

High resolution pictures
High resolution pictures please. We have phones capable of taking pictures in 8K now and Grindr still violently compresses pictures. They look so muddled. Thanks 👍🏻

Distance Reciprocity - users should only get to see other users’ distance if they are showing their own
Unless located in a country with anti-gay legislation, users hiding their distance should not get to see distance on other profiles. This would inspire a much-needed culture of fair play and reciprocity on the app, while also incentivizing members to stop hiding and stop wasting people’s time. (Not to mention that with distance shown on more profiles, browsing would be easier and the overall user experience would improve.)
