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

Make Screenshots of pictures not allowed
On other gay dating apps it is impossible to take screenshots of pictures (Scruff for example). While it’s already impossible to do in the albums feature why not make it impossible across the app. If anything it will protect the privacy of users. I’ve been the victim of a few guys catfishing using pictures they’ve stolen from other real guys on Grindr. Why not make it harder for bots and scammers and give the gay community an extra feeling of safety.

Allow Mock location again
Allow mock location again
I'm using it for 2 reasons
1) to use Grindr at my job using my location of my home because I don't want anybody knowing I'm gay at my job
2) when I know I'll be in another city for one or two nights to make pre contact with gay there87 votes -
Discreet App Notification Sounds.
Have discreet app notification sounds for when you want notifications on. Similar to the discreet app icons. The Grindr notification sound has become a staple sound so it would be good to have options.

Identity Verification
Some form of identity verification feature should be available for those of us who use photos. By performing this verification you would get a badge on your profile that you are who you say you are.

Help identify potential fake accounts and scammers by showing how old an account is
We should be able to see how long an account has existed to be able to help in weeding out fake accounts and criminals that create accounts for a day.

Disable distance displayed if user hides his distance
If users choose to hide their distance then they should nt be allowed to view the distance of others. What goes around comes around. It should be fair for what ever reason a user wants to hide his distance even though Grindr isn't acurate he should loose the option to view others distance.
Trust works both ways.
Allowing users to hide their distance but view others means they can see without showing their. This is Not equal.72 votes -
Verified profile option
Allow users optionally to verify their profile and show that on their profile. As tinder and other apps do. That will reduce catfishing and will create safer place for people to engage.
Thank you

MAJOR SECURITY RISK
Grindr Is a major security risk to the safeness of users and people within the community. Ever since I started using the app men have been using my images as their profile pictures to both sell drugs and suggest sexual activity. Sometimes catfishing young men and luring them to locations. I believe the only way the company can come together to solve this issue is to REQUIRE a MANDATORY security process for anyone using face picture images. I believe if you want to upload face pics to the app you must confirm your identity with a legal ID card. Men…

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…

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.

Block is no longer available
The block option is no longer available and was replaced by the hide option. Blocking a user is an essential safety tool in Grindr that can protect us from violence and harassment. Disabling it put in risk the safety and privacy of Grindr users.
