Distance Controls
Allow a user to be able to set distance parameter for whom they are seeing. Meaning that I only want to see users who are within a set distance from me. And likewise for users who see me so we don’t waste our time viewing people outside of our desired location radius.

Auto refresh
Ever since the last fuck-update every time I click on a profile then go back, the screen automatically refreshes and jumps back to the top of the list. It's infuriating to navigate the app now and makes me want to delete it which would cause me to lose money I've already paid for the ultimate package.

Dating
Please create a section geared for dating. I want a life partner and Grindr is the most popular and best LGBTQ+ app imo. Please have a free ad supported level among your paid levels. Also, Grindr’s costs are excessive. At minimum please make the dating section more cost effective than xtra/unlimited for the consumer. Maybe offer bundles for the guys that want to have their cake and cum on it too. I’m sincerely asking for help. Thank you for listening.
Side note. The glitching is excessive. Y’all need an update stat!!

Stop automatic refreshing
Sometimes when I return to the thumbnail feed after viewing a profile or using another app, I see a guy that I want to message, but then the feed automatically refreshes and the guy disappears :( Sometimes, if I am lucky I can find him again after searching carefully, but most of the time he is completely lost. This has caused me SO much frustration. PLEASE end this!
(A possible alternative to automatic refreshing would be to make a 'refresh' icon hover at the top of the feed/screen when it comes time to refresh, but allow us USERS to click…746 votes -
Please allow mock location on Grindr
Please allow us to use mock location on grindr ASAP. Recently i got to know that my partner is cheating on me and i really wanted to catch him red handed while using grindr, but being not able to use mock location he could trace that my profile is visible to my area using explore.. so he wouldn't reply to me.. by using mock location i could trace and catch him red handed.
As i stay in a rural area and isolated place and whenever i make a plan to visit another city i could use mock location to explore…

Block
The block function is broken currently having to block the same users every time I open the app it's become unusable and will have to delete soon as too many creepy people I can't block.
Please fix the block function it's a safety feature not a paid feature and it's illegal to not allow unlimited blocks on all accounts.

Delivery & read receipt reliability improvements
Fix the message delivery status and read receipt bugs. The message status should update to "Delivered" once it has been delivered, and to "Read" once it's been opened.
The status of a sent message is supposed to change from Sent to Delivered if the recipient has the app open, but many times I’ve seen people online even hours or days later, and my message still shows as Sent, leading me to assume they haven’t got it. So I send another message, which led to one guy telling me I’m impatient. This bug, combined with Grindr often losing messages altogether, keeps…599 votes -

Please make that option possible579 votes -
BRING BACK THE ETHNICITY FILTER
Bring back the ethnicity filter as I would like the choice to choose what I like. I don't think it's fair to leave people with absolutely no choice to decide on what they want. I think the ethnicity filter made life easier it made it easier to find what YOU wanted.
Please bring back the filter so I can finally get what I want again493 votes -

App full of glitches and bugs
App is full of glitches! It pings & indicates someone tapped me, shows a red dot 🔴 on taps, but when you go to see, there is nothing! Same for messages!
If you’re paying so much, the app must be flawless! Grindr is making big money on a poor quality product! 👎👎👎156 votes -

Swipe to go back
Seems in the latest update (iOS 8.14.0) you’ve removed the ability to swipe right to go back, it just goes to the next profile. I don’t swipe thru all profiles. I tap on one I like, read the profile and message them or not and then I swipe right to go back to the profile thumbnails, that’s what should happen. Now you have to tap on the X at the top left of a profile to close it and go back to everyone’s profile. That is not intuitive and makes it harder to use. Also, changing the ‘Fresh’ tab to…

Remove the Say Something... widget
The new addition of the Say Something ... widget on a profile leads to a terrible user experience. The app is already barely performant on a non flagship phone. With the addition of this feature once you open a profile it immediately opens the keyboard lagging the application. The keyboard takes up the majority of the screen and you can't view the profile without closing the keyboard. There was already a button for chatting. This feature does nothing but cause the user extra work and gets in the way. Did anyone even try using the app before publishing this feature?

Make the app actually work
Since the last update the app is worse than before. Extremely unresponsive. Messages being sent but not shown at all. Receiving 3 notifications for the same tap and no notifications for messages, or notifications after 3 minutes the message was sent. Taps appearing after 10 minutes. The current update on iphone has made it even less responsive than before with huge delays even when sending a simple message.
