Self-authentication of profile pictures!
Create a feature where an icon appears on people profiles who have self-authenticated themselves. Far too many people catfishing or using other peoples photos.
If the idea of the icon displayed on profiles doesn’t work well, at least have to prove it to grindr themselves before the photos are public. It’s outrageous that other peoples photos from other platforms are being used!

Stop unwanted Photos
Be able to set a default that you don’t accept any photos, Unless you chat with them OR add a switch to the chat to allow someone to send photos. STOP THE FLASH, I get it’s a hook up app but like dang man. Sometimes you have a nice convo and open another chat in public and POOF there is a hole.

Never make face pics required
It seems a lot of people either never experienced or forgot what it’s like to be in a relatively small community and/or have bigots for family. I know a guy personally who will out people he knows who are down-low due to careers, family members, whatever because he thinks it’s funny. I’ve seen it done to people on fetlife too. We should be able to explore the community without being blatantly exposed the whole time. I’m closeted. I likely will be til most of the elder generation in my family is dead. Forcing me out is forcing me off the…

Nsfw Folder
Sometimes users request nudes, I would like to be able to have a second folder that requires a prompt to access so I don't have to wait to use the app till I'm in private. Right now sharing photos even if it's just something regular means having any downloaded nudes out for people to see from over shoulder.
It's the same for people's profiles, they should get nsfw rates and filtered out if they're being borderline.
Setting never to received lewd pics should auto ban/suspend those who report and gets proven

Make it better?
You just removed a feature that allowed you to block people from the “viewed me” page.
You should be making it easier to block and avoid people. I’m not sure if you’re aware but there are a hell of a lot of creeps and horrible people on your app. You would be shocked by the abuse harassment and assult I’ve endured on your platform. You should be making it easier to avoid those situations not harder.
Here’s an idea, when I set the age limit to who I see on the grid only shows me to those people aswell.

Monkey Pox Vaccine Status
📆 Similar to "Last Tested" give is an option for when we get our 1st & 2nd Monkey Pox vaccine.
- Began Vaccination in "month"
- Options: "Received 1st Shot" "Received Both Shots" or "Vaccination period complete"
💉 It takes a very long time for the vaccine to become effective.
This info would be helpful to understand personal risk, when we are "looking" 👀5 votes -

Ask to allow screenshots
Grindr shouldn't let people screenshot the pictures you send them right of the bat. If the reciever tries to screenshot, the sender should be notified and asked if he wants to allow this person to do so throughout the conversation or if he wants not to allow him. There should also be a button to reverse this decision.

admin censorship
I did not know until recently that the admins of these particular websites like Growler or grinder 10 be local to the area and local to the actual members that are online this could come against a member if it was that the admin knew who they were and was actually some type of stalker or use this information they could see into the accounts and what the person was username or who they were maybe talking with as well as close out there account as soon as they start it

Grind or Nah
Grind or Nah. To encourage people to use actual photos of themselves bring that feature kinda like some other apps. A lot of cat fishing smh or you meet up with some druggy that’s been up for a month still up and ready to be weird as shit lol meeting up with people on here can be unsettling as it is. We all are gay that use the app and if you DL or whatever don’t use the app. Right now it’s like playing Russianroulette

Discretion Feature
My friend (and no that’s not a euphemism for me) is still in the closet. Recently, we were discussing this, and he was talking about a situation where family members had outed other closeted people because they found the app or it popped up and so on. Whilst we should celebrate coming out in the community, people also have their reasons for being in the closet and this should be protected. I began thinking about the Deliveroo app, and how you can change the apps appearance if you subscribe to their premium feature. What if, in a similar vein, there…

Mental Health Research
What data does Grindr have on the impacts to mental health in the community? Have you done research on the impact sending read receipts with no reply has to users? Do you see an issue with a culture of ignoring people? Do have have any data on how this might effect suicidal rates in the community based on your lack of action or acknowledgment?

Explanation Blocking
If someone blocks you they should be made to tell the other user why they’re blocking them. Especially for something as trivial as not being “their type.”

Dump the new albums.
In theory, the new albums sound like a good idea. In practice, however, people have moved their once public photos to the private albums just because it's a new feature. Where I used to be able to look through profiles and see lots of pictures, now I look through profiles and see one picture with private albums.
It makes me not want to spend as much time on the app :-) that may be a good thing, I don't know.

Stalked by an anonymous guy
I am being stalked by a local guy constantly.
I have an open relationship with my guy. We are both allowed to browse the apps.
This guy favorities my profile and every time he sees me online he texts updates to my other half saying - oh he is back online looking and he can’t be that into you. Blah blah. My other half tells him it’s ok, but he persists in dripping poison.
It’s easy to say ignore. But it’s affecting my partner now. We are open in using the apps. But the constant jealous pressure is making us…

¿Acoso?
Me gustaría que me envíen las pruebas del acoso que supuestamente cometí, para tratar de mejorar, ¿entiendes?. Yo se que no hice tal cosa, pero pues, bueno. También deberían de verificar si no existen personas que utilizan a otros o algún grupo de bots para reportar sin sentido tratando de botarle la cuenta a alguien.
