Blocked Chat Retention
Recently was assaulted by someone met of Grindr. After the incident I was blocked by the assailant and I no longer had the chats as evidence. If someone blocks you it shouldn't delete the chat stream. Delete media and pics maybe, but leave the chats.

Enhancing User Safety: A Proposal for Trust Features on Grindr
En Français plus bas.
Context: Recently, there have been several serious incidents reported in Belgium and France where people have used the Grindr app to lure victims into homophobic traps, leading to tragic outcomes, including scams, theft, severe violence, and even, in some cases, death. While it’s impossible to completely eliminate risks, it is crucial to enhance the safety of all users.
Proposal: It is urgent to implement features that allow users to assess the reliability of the profiles they interact with, to better protect themselves. This could include a trust score, based on various criteria such as account age,…

Verify account to reduce Ghosting and fake profiles
It appears Hosting and fake profile to solicit pictures and to raise user emotions before ghosting them is becoming more common than not.
Not only does this impact the mental health of users who are being ghosted, but it seriously impacts the user and makes them question their existence without our community.
Fake users are getting off on getting attention but never following through, nor ever going to meet, but lead the user on before blocking them 2 mins before meeting.There needs to be some facility within the app to verify the user, or a 'commit to meet' option…

Turn Off Grunt as default!
Keep grunt off as default. There were several times this went off & I thought my phone was hacked. It was alarming. Keep usual tap sound not grunt. This grunt will definitely cause issues with privacy & anyone trying to be discrete. Not ideal for ppl in the closet.

The new "grunt" sound overrides custom sounds - fix this
Please make all sounds customizable.
I used to be able to customize notification sounds in Android. Now the "grunt" sound won't allow itself to be overridden.
It's creepy for a human-like sound to come out of my phone randomly, and it'd be even creepier to hear it coming out of someone else's phone.
Fix your shit plz. I dislike having to turn off all notifications but it's not a realistic option to keep this sound on.
The divide between grindr not working well and sniffies just working is growing and growing...even reddit is better for hookups at this point.

Camouflage Features for Safety & Privacy
Give us the option to change app name from “Grindr” to something else like Calculator or Browser (to safeguard users in anti-LGBTQ environments). And also if possible an option to change the app’s default yellow and black theme which almost everyone can recognize from a distance. This will increase safety and privacy for users

The Membership fee is too high and the free version offers too little: Not safe or fair Privacy=Money.
It's a fact other apps have been sued for overlooking the safety of their clients. It is not reasonable that a paying member gets incognito privileges to lurk & troll all, yet a free account suffers this secret observation by those with money. Having money does not guarantee your patron isn't some psycho, it leaves the unsuspecting others at theer y if those affording the ability to cloak themselves. Need I sight a case where several kidnappings, rapes and eventually murder happened with Adam4Adam and their GPS systems? If you are about the customer experience and most importantly, safety, it…

You need to check ID on people. There are teenagers on here all the time. All the time. Start asking for picture ID like twitter.
There are teenagers on here all the time . We need to feel safe and not caught up in some scandle bullshit because kids lie about age. Ask to verify picture ID

Remove Women
Remove women from the app...the gender option. It's insulting AF. Straight people invading gay spaces is not cool; you are taking diversity a bit too far.

Allow to block back
There should be allowance for users who have been blocked by someone the same privilege to block them back. As it is if someone blocks you they completely dissapear. It happens occasionally that I tee up a meeting, After agreeing on a time and place I then take about 1.5 hours getting dressed up and ready, the meeting time has come and gone, I log back in to find the user has blocked me, and I'm unable to block him back, which leaves the person who got blocked vunerable to this kind of behaviour from the same person again and…

Blocked Users
Stop allowing blocked users to still have access to our profile. That’s completely stupid. That’s why they block so they can’t see us. A boy I blocked yesterday and on the blocklist STILL messaged me. That makes Grindr a dangerous creepy app.

Drug monitoring
The app is full of drug addicts, sellers and people that put at risk others with their substances.
I see so many people here in Mexico selling cristal or slam and a lot of users of it, using emojis to hide their substance usage.
I believes both a feature that monitors this emojis they use to talk about said substances is much needed, even it making a report to the police.
For other substances such as Alcohol, tabaco, marihuana and poppers there should be a block for people that do not want to match with others that do.1,342 votes -
Free users should have access to web page
Free users should also have access to grindr.com on the web because some instructions for how to do things on the free app are incorrect. my personal issue was the how to report a person who has blocked you feature/instructions are incorrect for a free app user such as myself. someone messaged me and information exchanged in our chat, leads me to believe this person is number one, possibly breaking the law number two possibly harming underage minors (which is illegal/disgusting) I am trying to get his profile reported but when I went online to the help center to get…

No taps
Do away with the Tap feature, I have seen countless profiles mention “no taps” “Tap=block” I think that if so many people hate this feature then do away with it. (2) change the notification sound it’s irritating too loud. I turn it off in settings but if you get a message you still have that high irritating sound that can be heard 2 doors down.
