Fake profile option
There are an unreasonable number of fake accounts, asking you to give away your personal information, I encounter 5-10 of these a week and this truly reduces the experience of using the app. Some are clearly people with poor English, many are simple bots that cannot answer the questions

Option to change Location accuracy (exact and nearby)
When I share my location it shows the pin right on my house, which is way too accurate if someone in the city just wants to know if I’m nearby. There should be an exact location and nearby radius (block/0.5 mile) option.

Filter out the people we've messaged before
Filter out profiles we've chatted with in the past day, past week, past month, past two months, all time, etc. Or, give us a filter that shows us only profiles we've never chatted with. This will help us avoid those who never responded to us, so we can see/connect with only new people.

Country
Have country in basic search. I live in Canada 70 miles from the U.S. boarder and no idea where the search results are besides distance.

Filters selecting profiles for group chat
Right now, it's nearly impossible to find specific profiles when adding someone to group chat. Standard filter to select on age, type, tribe... Would make this feature usable. I have many favorites, so I often can't add someone to a group chat.
Oe better yet, allow one to select based on inbox messages.

More defined trans tribes
There needs to be a division of trans woman, trans man, and trans admirer. Lumping everyone together is just annoying. Trans men and trans women are two very different groups. There are well-defined tribes that separate otter from bear, twink from daddy, and so on. But men seeking trans women have no separate tribe; they are just listed with the transsexuals. So it all gets very confusing. We need clearer trans categories.

Make Grindr a better space for professional networking
Allow users to select their industry of employment from a list, and/or give users a field to write their occupation. Put professionals in some of your marketing campaigns. Highlight gay-friendly workplaces. Let's promote gainful employment in the gay community!

Add more profile categories (e.g., cut/uncut, kinks, etc.) and allow filtering by ALL profile categories
The profile section needs far more categories (cut/uncut, size, hairy/trimmed/shaved, kinks, etc. ) and we should be able to filter using ALL categories. And yes, this should include gender and status. It’s great that you’ve made the app more inclusive but that inclusiveness shouldn’t prevent us from searching for what we want.

Desktop/Web Access to Grindr
A way to log into/use your Grindr profile from PC would be nice. Some of the other apps have web versions and it would be especially handy to be able to use Grindr from web browser when your phone is charging or if you lose/break it

Allow bulk-delete chats
As of right now the only way to delete past chats is to swipe left one by one and hit Delete. However, doing it for hundreds or chats might get a bit time-consuming. I suggest adding a feature to delete all chats older than X days, say.

incognito mode several options, for example: incognito mode for specific people
The incognito mode should be able to apply not only to everyone but also to a specific user to be really useful. There could be in the menu to block a user another icon to be in incognito mode for this person

Instagram verification
There should be a way to have to verify that you are in fact the user of the Instagram that you link your account to. Someone is using my pics (which is another major problem), but they are also linking MY Instagram to make them seem even more credible.
