“Not interested” tap option
Taps. Currently we have the flame, devil and friendly hello tap option. Why don’t we have a “not interested” tap option too? A lot of people have problems with being ignored by others when someone isn’t interested in them. However, people also cannot be bothered to reject others with words - it’s too much effort. This update to the tap mechanism could kill two birds with one stone. It makes it less time/energy consuming to reject people with just a click of a button. AND the guys who feel invalidated when being ignored, can get an answer - instead of…

Side position
I, along with thousands of other gays, am a side. Unlike tops or bottoms, we don’t enjoy partaking in anal sex. Unfortunately the only options available under “position” all refer to anal sex. It’d be very helpful to include an “oral only” or “side” or anything really, so that we don’t have to explain ourselves to everyone who messages us.

Incluir "Neutro" en los roles o posiciones como la opción de "sin penetración"
Neutro es el rol de los hombres homosexuales y bisexuales que no practicamos penetración anal. En regiones anglo han incluido a "side" como el rol sin penetración, pero en regiones hispanoablantes solo hay la opción de "sin penetración", habria que cambiar esta opción por "Neutro" que es el equivalente en español para SIDE. Anexo infografias ilustrativas y recomiendo visitar la cuenta de twitter @club_neutro para consultar más información.

Sexual activity options
Would be nice to have a section to choose our sexual activities likes, similar to the "Looking for" section.
Include multiple choice options such as: anal, oral, light fun, rimming, no sex, no anal, bareback, etc.
I think that would guide guys in finding like minded guys.
Also it will free up space in typing in the 255 character box.168 votes -
Reverse age filter update
So apparently in the new version update (31 January 2022) it’s no longer possible to filter on one age (min. 18 and max. 18). Now it’s only possible to search for ages with a 3/4 year range (min. 18 and max. 21).
Since this drastically reduces the amount of people you can find from a specific age, I’d like to recommend Grindr to reverse this decision!
Hope to count on your vote!

Notifications that are grouped, detailed, and replyable
Please bundle our new unread messages under one main notification, which can be pulled down (expanded) to view the individual messages grouped under it. Include each sender’s profile picture and display name, and allow us to reply to each sender individually, within the notification.
(Currently, unpaid users just get a single, generic notification containing a count of their unread messages, while paid users only see their single most recent unread message. Non-grouped, non-detailed, non-replyable notifications like these are extremely outdated, especially for a messaging app.)

Separate section for trans people and their admirers
I think trans men and trans women along with people who are trans-attracted deserve to have their own separate posting section. That way, trans community members and their admirers can better easily connect with one another. It would be beneficial and make sense to give trans people and their seekers their own platform, connected to the rest of Grindr but as a section within the existing app. You could call it GrindrTrans or something.

Add 'kink' to tribes!
There is the leather option but that is just 1 kind of kink so it's a very narrow field. A few people use that tribe for kink but alot of people are intimidated by this because they aren't into leather and see it as "too extreme" for them. I'm surprised it hasn't already been made into a tribe if im honest!

It's time for a sister app
Grindr used to be gay but is increasing everything I don't want...girls, trans, spam, pronouns, genders. Gay men like men. Straight people already have tinder. Make a separate app for trans. The only gender option Grindr needs is male. Allowing nude pics would be nice but supposedly they aren't allowed even though most new profiles are using them. I tried posting a face picture with a collar and another with a blindfold and was told they were sexually explicit even though it only showed from the neck up...meanwhile there's girls and trannys with their tits out and is the last…

gender filter
I understand that Grindr is trying to be more inclusive but you should include a gender filter because my gallery is full of people I'm not interested in

Filter Out Trans From Listing
There seriously needs to be an optional means of filtering out the Transgendered, the female and the non-gays.
This is primarily a gay dating site but that is not the point. The majority of use are males who are looking for males but that too is not the point.
The point is not quite that in bygone years virtually all of those using Grindr were gay male but now a very high percentage are in either varying degrees of non-gay or non-male mode, but that we are limited to only being able to view the nearest 100 or 600 profiles…

Make this a male gay app for men
Back in 2009, one of the original Grindr rules was that you had to be of age (usually 18) and male. MALE! What’s a male? Ohhh my goodness how could Grindr be so exclusive! Isn’t it ironic how a woke ignorant culture of insanely evolving political correctness is eroding even the most basic, common sense thoughts about what a dick for dick means. I’m beyond fed up with trying to pacify everyone’s ever changing rules. Cos, sis, tranny intersect purple blue and hamsters. Oh and while we are are it, where are the lesbians and men seeking women, (penis for…

Change notification ringtone
Please give us the option to change the notification sound. It becomes awkward at times when we receive a notification in public.

Bring back the erhnicity filter!
The stupidest thing Grindr ever did was get rid of one of its most basic and most used filters: ethnicity. In a bow to political correctness, Grindr likely lost thousands of paying subscribers. Why would I pay for the app if I can't even filter for what I want even with a paid subscription? I'm an adult. If I have a flavor for a certain ethnicity or they for me, nothing is wrong with that. Indeed, the lack of functionality now makes it difficult to find ethnic minorities in a sea of white suburbia where I live. I will not…

Please add polyamorous
Please add Polyamorous to the available relationship statuses. It's quite different than "open relationship" and those of us who are in poly relationships really have no suitable option in the drop down list as none of the ones you offer accurately include the polyamorous lifestyle.

More Body Type Options!
The current body type options aren’t exactly what a lot of us would prefer to use. I’ve seen a lot of Bios that say “if there was a thick body type option id choose it” so I know I’m not the only one who thinks the options need some updating! My personal suggestion for either swapping some of the ones currently available or just to be added would be
1- Thicc
2- Slim thicc
3- dad bod
4- Chub
5- tall / lengthy65 votes -
I only want to see men!!!
As a gay man, I'd like to see men only. However, I don't see a way to filter out those identifying or dressing as women?

Filter by sex & gender identity.
I often find myself having a hard time filtering through profiles that are by not only men with feminine gender expressions, which I have no issue with, but actual cis gendered women. I support the use of Grindr by anyone who is looking for whatever reason.
But we want what we want. For those looking for a good match it would be best to include all possible identity factors, assuming those are legitimate deal breakers that have no malice intended for the person not selected.
I’m not a misogynist for not being attracted to women anymore than I’m transphobic for…

The TS/CD community needs a separate section
I fully support the trans community but I have no sexual interest in them. There really should be a separate area where they and those attracted to them can connect. I joined Grindr because I am a man who is interested in other men and lately it seems all I am doing is blocking members who present as female and those who are searching for them…I love our trans community members, but I don’t want to be intimate with them…
