I would love it if I could make myself appear offline for individual people but remain online for other people.

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.)

Incentivize members to fill out their entire profile
Give members incentives for completing each field on their profile. One option is to reward members with 10% more guys on their cascade per field completed. (First-time users who have not yet created a profile, for example, will unlock more and more profiles on their local grid the more they fill in their profile. Once all fields have been specified, all locked profiles on their cascade will be unlocked.) This is a standard feature enacted by numerous online social and dating services. Having mechanisms in place that encourage members to fill out their full profile will help put an end…

Notes on Non-favorites
There currently the feature to add notes to Favorite profiles, but sometimes I want to add a note to non-favorites. Either as a reminder of something we talked about, their name, or a warning that I didn’t enjoy talking to them.

Ability to disable account and reenable account rather then deleting account
When taking a break from Grindr all I can do is delete account. Would be great if I could just hide account for a while and just enable when I come back. I had a lot of drama restoring subscription last time I removed my account.

“Looking Now” and “Hosting Now” icons
It would be helpful to have a simple toggle that can be turned on or off if you're actively looking for “right now,” as well as an icon like a little house that indicates you can host and a walking character icon if you cannot. Turning the feature “on” could either highlight your profile in the cascade or add a symbol like a flame next to your display name.
(Some profiles say they are “Looking For: Right Now” in their profile but may not actually mean it, so this would help with that.)1,732 votes -
More sophisticated profile
Even if it’s a hookup, most times you are going to want something to talk about before you unzip. Profiles are always loaded with user’s ridiculously rules, qualifications and expectations. Having a place to connect with someone on the basis of sports, education, jobs, interest would be a plus
