Explain the block
Using the same system that most players use, the report, explain why the block was applied is not only more clear as well as doubtless for the one that was blocked.
Ex:
- block - inconvenient
- block - bulliyng
- block - not interesting
- block - annoyingIn addition, sending a message to the one that was blocked instead of just disapearing, is something that should be in the app

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

Distance Reciprocity - users should only get to see other users’ distance if they are showing their own
Unless located in a country with anti-gay legislation, users hiding their distance should not get to see distance on other profiles. This would inspire a much-needed culture of fair play and reciprocity on the app, while also incentivizing members to stop hiding and stop wasting people’s time. (Not to mention that with distance shown on more profiles, browsing would be easier and the overall user experience would improve.)

Incentivize members to fill out their entire profile
Give members incentives for completing each field on their profile. One option is to reward members with 10% more guys on their cascade per field completed. (First-time users who have not yet created a profile, for example, will unlock more and more profiles on their local grid the more they fill in their profile. Once all fields have been specified, all locked profiles on their cascade will be unlocked.) This is a standard feature enacted by numerous online social and dating services. Having mechanisms in place that encourage members to fill out their full profile will help put an end…

Do not leave an in-chat notification when an unread message is unsent
Only messages that were viewed by the recipient deserve an “unsent message” notification if they're retracted by the sender. Messages that were never opened by the recipient, however, should just disappear without a trace. This way, we subscribers can unsend typos and other unseen mistakes without causing any suspicion.

Pause subscription
For those of us XTRA/Unlimited subscribers who need to take a break from Grindr due to work-related, health-related, or relationship-related reasons, it would be helpful if we could freeze our subscription so we don’t lose the remaining time we’ve paid for. Since we can’t request refunds, at least don’t penalize us when conflicts arise in our personal life that demand us to step away from the app for a bit. You can still keep our money, just give us the option to freeze. This would be especially helpful for those of us on year-long subscriptions.
(To prevent users from freezing…1,069 votes -
Inbox filter: one-sided chats
Most people never respond for one reason or another, so it’d be nice to easily filter out those chats from our crowded inboxes.

screen rotation
automatically rotate the app when the phone is turned, so it's capable of displaying in "landscape" mode as well as "portrait"...like every other app under the sun is capable of doing (well, almost anyway).

Notes on Non-favorites
There currently the feature to add notes to Favorite profiles, but sometimes I want to add a note to non-favorites. Either as a reminder of something we talked about, their name, or a warning that I didn’t enjoy talking to them.

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.)

Allow us to delete all current message history for both parties in the message, sometimes you just want to restart w/out making new account.
Delete messages for both sides. Sometimes you just wanna clear all chats and restart, but you pay for subscription so you don’t want to make a new profile. I know we can delete the messages from us, but I wanna know it deletes on their side too. Sometimes you send the wrong message or something, or you need to send a picture to set things up, but you want to be able to delete your picture after. I get that you shouldn’t send if you don’t want it out there, but this is about more than just pictures. I just…

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.

Incognito mode options
1) incognito mode by age range: set an age range you wish to be visible to, but incognito otherwise
2) Current incognito mode but stay on the grid. Appear offline, but on the grid so guys can see your profile... some guys are too shy to even tap if you’re online... should be an option to stay on the grid in incognito mode
3) = 1) + 2): allow to set age range for appearing on the grid as ‘offline’156 votes
