Trackers need to be Abolished
Stop using 500 trackers when you pay large amounts of money for paid membership. It’s a huge invasion of privacy. Despicable. If people really understood what their data I was being used for not a single person would be on this platform.

Nsfw pics "ask first" option
So for NSFW pics options. They aren't specific enough. Like, I want to have an option that says "Ask First". Because people think that "not at first" just means "don't send a dick pic first thing". Like. I want explicit consent options.

Location and privacy
Last update with the prohibition of mocking locations doesn't seem to be very helpful, here is my proposition.The app should use exact locations but shouldn't be seen in a precise way in the profiles, this can be made quite easy just hiding this info setting a user in a broad area you can see a example of this in the location of the sellers in other app called wallapop. if someone wants to share his precise location it can be perfectly be done in the private message Window. I think with this most people Will be happy and safer and…

Guys asking for money
Make sure that Grindr double check profiles from guys asking for money. To many of them.
Look up for signs like: Only Gen, Gen, no free sex, etc.
Those guys shouldn't be allowed to be on Grindr asking for money.34 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…

block "For you" chats
I do not want Grindr to recommend chats, and I'm certainly not going to pay for the feature. In fact I would block most of the profiles that are listed (first two in list were crossdressers). If Grindr can keep all of its AI profiles in this area and off my grid then it's useful. Otherwise it's waste of space that I don't want to see.

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.

Verified Accounts against Scammers and AI Robots
For the safety of everyone, can we have each account verified. A lot of scammers and robots are sending me messages multiple times each day.

Verification
Grindr to introduce a verification badge. Much like other social media networks that have verified a users identity. This would help with identity fraud and also other people using your photos.

Roll back roam
Are you fucking retarded? Your platform is already flooded with scammers and roam will just help facilitate that problem. Your management has already driven this platform into the ground, now you cater to scammers over real users. Typical corporate idiocy. Sorry your investors want a bigger pay day. Maybe if you provided a service that helped users rather than putting everything behind 15 layers of subscription you wouldn’t be circling the drain

block
like other users had already stated: we have a problem with people creating new accounts in order to try once again their luck or even harassing those who blocked them.
I suggest the possibility to block users like in Tinder: ''block any new user with this phone''.

HPV Vaccine Status
Add HPV vaccine (eg., Gardasil) as an option under “Vaccinated for” in user profiles along with Mpox, Covid, and Meningitis. May consider adding Hepatitis A and B vaccines too (eg., Twinrix).

Fake profiles, escorts, etc.
Fake profiles are not being handled by Grindr. I get guys who I've reported creating new profiles EVERY DAY and contacting me again -- there needs to be verification like a government-issued ID. If a profile with that ID has been reported/blocked/banned, they obviously should NOT be able to just create a new profile with the same ID. Also all the escorts need a separate category - any "regular" guy who asks if we're "generous" is an escort. The word "generous" if used should generate a pop-up warning. These escorts waste everyone's time pretending they're looking to hookup and only…

Pre Ban
Hi.
I feel like users should receive a warning before they get permanently banned, something like a pre ban. Most users bypass the rules and everything else. I got banned because I used one of my half nude pictures as my profile picture. I also think the Grindr team should inform the users why they got banned, what the reason was, I had to figure why I got banned by myself.
Thank you.

Banned
When someone gets banned you should show them the content for which they were banned for and not just send a banned msg people report others all the time for dumb stuff

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.30 votes -

Ability to block phone contacts
There should be an option to block all contacts on your phone inside the app so things like family, coworkers or close friends wouldn’t be able to see you on the app

Ban Appeals
There needs to be a better way about appealing bans. You should tell the user why they have been banned.
I’ve just received a ban and I’ve been on gridnr for over 10 years on/off and I’ve never done anything. I’ve contacted Grindr regarding the only very small possibility (created another account) and I’ve received no response. That was two days ago. There needs to be a better way of contacting Grindr directly?
