Group/Event meetup
If someone wants to plan a lgbtq event, or plan a group session there should be a way to spread the word amongst the community. Kind of like events in FB or something and you can display the event in your profile or post it in some new message board

Too many ads
Too many ads, too much. Less than a minute after you launch the app, ads are forced to appear. Or click one or two user information to display ads, and the ad time is still very long.
Now that there is a free version for people to use, the quality of the users should be maintained. Inserting ads is understandable, but not too many.
The paid price of the software has increased significantly compared to the past. When using the free version, the experience is already terrible, making people even less willing to pay.

Get rid of bots/create a verification system
There are times when 8/10 users are all the same ‚person‘ with the same picture, stats and profile. These obviously are bots.
Get rid of these profiles and introduce some kind of verification/scanning algorithm to filter out these bots before they can even enter101 votes -

Too Expensive
Even the one-week trial price is way too expensive. There are features that are great for protecting one's privacy being locked behind a paywall thats way too steep.

Allow filtering by hiv status to allow poz guys find other poz guys
It would make such a huge difference to poz guys if you could let us find other poz guys. This won’t get many upvotes because it doesn’t affect most users but for those of us who are poz it would be a huge improvement to our lives to be able to find other poz guys, so please please implement this 🙏. Perhaps the filter can only be visible to guys who have their hiv status as poz on their profile if you’re worried about prejudiced people abusing the filter. The filter could also be only for finding poz guys instead…

Say something bubble has to go
Get rid of say something bubble.Blocks the bottom part of a profile, and is repetitive-there's a chat bubble right next to it. It's useless and annoying. Why block the last lines of a profile???

Android/IOS price difference
I have a question that bothers me a lot... why is grindr for android lower priced than grindr for apple?
If I log into my grindr account IOS its a lot more expensive than when I log in from my android device?
Yes IOS is expensive and you pay for 90% of apps BUT when everyone pays for the same app I would think it would have the same price tag???
And why is grindr so expensive?, if I think of all the adds that drives me crazy, why do we have to pay such high subscription fees?

Ads
This latest spate of pop-up ads are beyond obnoxious. The fact that you can often not close an ad at ALL, or that the “X” box is so small you can hardly even find it is not just irritating but EXTREMELY intrusive.
Frankly I cannot imagine using the services of any advertiser who crams their ads down my throat this way. If anything, I will go out of my way to boycott an ad or a game that is being forced on me.
I realize Grinder relies on ad revenue, but running ad campaigns like these not only does a…

Ummm do a better job at banning the correct people
How come you can’t block out fake accounts or people who steal photos but ban random accounts and their ip addresses over nothing???? What is the whole point of being on this app if you can’t even use it anymore because they block you

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?

Too many Fake Bot Accounts
Using Grindr has become increasingly frustrating. Despite paying for an Unlimited membership at $40/month, the overwhelming number of fake bot profiles has made the app nearly unusable. At this point, it feels like 90% of the interactions I receive are from bots rather than real people.
Considering the premium cost, this makes the service feel extremely poor in value. It’s disheartening to pay for features that are overshadowed by fake accounts and spam interactions. What should be an enjoyable and social experience has instead become exhausting and disappointing.
I hope Grindr takes stronger action to reduce the prevalence of fake/bot…

Make Screenshots of pictures not allowed
On other gay dating apps it is impossible to take screenshots of pictures (Scruff for example). While it’s already impossible to do in the albums feature why not make it impossible across the app. If anything it will protect the privacy of users. I’ve been the victim of a few guys catfishing using pictures they’ve stolen from other real guys on Grindr. Why not make it harder for bots and scammers and give the gay community an extra feeling of safety.
