Remove online & logged off profile quicker from grid 4 user privacy & less message disturbance once leaving app or silence till return featu
If the incognito feature can’t be made available free Members privacy and usage time rights should still considered. It’s increasingly disturbing the timing it’s showing a user is online after logging off with messages coming through hours after real time use of app. Often hours later messages arrive disturbing sleep social situations Understandably forever manually adjusting notifications etc will do this but if it’s to hard it’s a negative and like many starting to think it just getting harder to use App
How about a silence/hide till next log in feature. Free incognito or quicker Removal on your part of…

You need to check IDs before they’re signing up for the app
I think you guys should be able to stop fake profiles from being on Grindr and multiple profiles being open by solicitors for police encounters with small or youth or younger youth IDs need to be present it wow on this adult app page is very because of city and state, but it’s still needs to have some type of secure Zone so no one get injured hard L

HPV vaccination status
What about adding HPV vaccination status to the new vaccines section? Also resources and knowledge on the subject will really help the community.
Having recently contracted HPV through somebody on the app I don’t want to spread it and put someone through what I’m experiencing and it’s a turn off to bring up in conversation.
I wish I had been more aware and prepared before hand too.20 votes -

Block IP addresses
You should be able to block IP addresses to avoid them being able to creat new profiles. I literally rejected a guy & he created 4 new profiles just to troll me since I rejected him. HOW IS THIS FAIR OR SAFE. I reported the profiles & blocked them & nothing. Just for them to create a new one. If you block the IP address they won't be able to create a new profile no matter what no through cell phone or laptop at least not in that location or devices which would make me feel safer. also make it…

Ability to hide or disabled the “viewed you” counter at the top right of the app.
Imagine you are an 18 year old guy, new to the app. You can see 120 guys have viewed you but you’ve only received messages for 2 guys. Some people will internalise that as “wow, that means 118 guys don’t find me attractive. I must be so ugly”. I think it’s very dangerous for peoples mental health. Personally, I’d rather not know how many people have viewed me.

Font, Profile, and Thumbnail size options in Explore and Inbox pages
Can you please add a font and profile size options for Inbox and Explore pages, so people nearby won't have to see all those messages and NSFW pictures clearly 2 to 3 ft away? Using the app gives me so much anxiety and less safe space and privacy with all these huge thumbnails in inbox and explore pages.

Option to block faceless profiles from messaging
We’re already able to filter out profiles without profile pictures as is, so why not let us disallow faceless profiles from messaging us in the first place?

Put a button to block screenshots if you want
Please, it would be an excellent idea to put a button to block screenshots, considering that there have already been cases of sharing conversations and personal photos of participants, thank you

Please have a "verified profile" service in the future.
Dear Grindr,
This "verified profile" service reduces many of the cases of crime, murder, kidnapping, robbery, fake picture accounts, etc. Sincerely,Alexandru Serban

GPS
It would be a Great Idea if the GPS opens on google maps or any other that "takes you" to the destination in stead of guessing the direction.

Sexual safety
There should be a feature to allow you to anonymously tell someone to go for STI testing to allow people who have recently tested positive for something to alert others they hooked up with that they need to get treated as well.
If the feature is abused to harass others, this can be detected by identifying individuals who send these alerts with abnormal frequency to people they haven't had a reciprocal conversation with in the past or whose initial conversation was too recent and they couldn't possibly have had enough time to hook up with them and get tested. This…

Simultaneous photo sending/unlocking
Trading photos is a pain. There's always a debate about who is going to send theirs first. There should be an option to send another user your photo but that photo only gets shown or unlocked to them if they have sent one of their own to you. Both photos unlock simultaneously.
I could see the notification saying, "this user has chosen a photo to send to you through the fair photo trade option. If you wish to make a fair trade choose a photo to send them in return and we will unlock both simultaneously"
This would reduce the…

Blocking users and any accounts they may create
I think it is in the interest of the grindr community's safety to create a "Block user and any accounts they may create" feature. I've been harassed by several people who simply make a new blank account and then approach me in app. They make new accounts almost weekly and their undesired contact has persisted for going on two years. I block them every single time. Once he even catfished me with other people's pictures. I highly recommend a feature that links blocks accounts by registration information so that undesired contact is limited.
