Sex Tracker?
Can you add a feature that lets you track whom you sleep with? Like let you flag it on their profile and compile a list of whom and when for you. This would make it easy to contact them if you catch something, which makes everyone a whole lot safer.

Enable use of GPS (phone only) for location
Currently, Grindr stupidly insists you have you location settings on the battery draining "high" accuracy setting, which is GPS plus the Google data gathering machine of Wi-Fi. This needs to be changed to allow GPS only. GPS gives high accuracy anyway so there is no need for anything more which offers no improvement except for Google's finances. Having your location data from an app such as this move outside Grindr's or your phone's realm is a terrible risk, particularly in countries where homosexuality is illegal. We also have the right to determine how location is determined, this should not be…

Mock locations prohibited
Guys please allow the use of mock locations again. If this means we have to verify through a phone number like with scruff then that's fine. I can't date for almost 3 months now via grindr cause you guys are blocking the use of mock locations. I get the whole safety stuff but this is not the way to deal with that. Please guys 💔

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.

Verifying every user when they first sign up- too many profiles with NO pictures!
For verification purposes. Like tinder and MOST other dating/hookup apps have some sort of photo verification system to prove that it’s actually who you say you are. I am SO SICK OF ALL THESE USERS ON GRINDR WITH NO PHOTOS! in my opinion, I think it should be a requirement that if you want to be on Grindr then you need to have a clear, visible unaltered face picture of what you look like, so other members can see who all is in the room AND it’s especially annoying when those exact people with no pictures on their profile go…

Make this a safe space for male identifying bi and gay men. This is no longer a safe space with the curious straight men looking for women
Make this a safe space for male identifying bi and gay men. This is no longer a safe space with the curious straight men looking for women. In an effort to be “inclusive” you have ostracized the very people this was created for. When I get old enough, I’m totally going to change my name to powers.Please give gay and bi men (male or male identifying) the safe space it once was. I am now surrounded by “straight” men that are looking to experiment with women. Cool the straight men and women have been allowed to take something that was…

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.

Verification
You guys need to include a verification for new and already exisiting profile with someone's ID, there is to many underage people and people using fake profiles for either baiting or scams

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.

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.

Restore “Report a Recent Chat” feature
You list “Report a Recent Chat” as a security option, but your instructions are outdated or inaccurate because ”Report a Recent Chat” is not listed under Settings, as you claim it is. Someone is currently trying to extort me that I met through your app, and I should have the ability to report him. It was a recent chat. Also, in general: require a verification for everyone (even DL guys, which this app caters to too much in lieu of safety). Ban people who are known cat fishers from creating multiple accounts.

Mock location
Without the simulated location feature, grindr would really be a boring, useless application, even causing users to reveal personal information about their own location, endangering themselves. so i canceled grindr's xtra package and will use my money on another dating app, grindr admins are really stupid to ban the use of location simulator

Safety and privacy of gay men.
This isn’t to bash anyone or discriminate against any gender or gender identity, but this used to be an app where gays could come to meet, hookup, chat, etc. But now with trans and CD’s making profiles on a site that wasn’t created for them, they’re taking away from the grid space that gays would otherwise have to interact. I also don’t believe that straight guys should be allowed to make profiles on grindr because I honestly believe that half of those profiles are fake and used to extract personal information from the gays that attempt to interact with them.…

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…

Mass/Multiple Profile Blocking
Right now blocking is a one by one multiple step process. It’s really annoying when the same people delete and recreate accounts and keep messaging you and you have to go to each profile and individually block them. If you can at least bring the Mass/Multiple Profile Blocking ability to the Xtra/Unlimited users it would be really great!
