Pop up ads
Stop letting ads come up every few minutes now. And you have to buy Grindr plus if you want it to go away. Bring the old version back when ads wasn't allowed.

Bots
This app is full of bots taking up spaces on my timeline then there are the messages from fake profiles promoting porn sites My view is these are from Grindr to push users having to see the adverts for crap apps It really is making Grindr unusable

Bring back the favorites tab
Please bring back the favorites tab at the bottom of the screen. The new format sucks. I can’t search for notes that I had put on my favorites anymore

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

Search
Please return the search bar in the messages. That is very useful for finding conversations. This was removed in the last update.

Gender Filter
I get that Grindr wants to be inclusive and what not but alright it’s easy to ween out the females but there’s LITERALLY heterosexual males on the app blantly being rude and disrespectful about not being interested in men and only wants Trans/mtf/crossdressers on their profile. Cool you guys added gender filters to “help” us find the people we’re interested in but the way the filter is set up is a one way deadend change. Let’s say I’m a heterosexual male looking for trans females on a “gay” homosexual advertised app and I put my gender identity as Male/Men I’m…

Receiving profiles for men HUNDREDS of MILES away
Two things. First, allow us to enter a "distance away" number in miles the same as other filters.
Second, automatically limit the grid entries to no more than 30 miles away unless we ask to see profiles more than 30 miles away (using the above filter).94 votes -
Please reinstate the race filter...!
Its silly to force certain ethnic groups down our throats..and time consuming as you have to delete profiles one by one to eventually see the guys you prefer. Please reinstate the race filter..you will eliminate a lot of frustration.

Give trans people their own tab.
Sure they are part of our community but I can't even find gay cis men anymore because of the pages of trans people on my grid. I shouldn't lose more than half of my grid space to a gender I'm not attracted to. I'm sure they feel the same way about us. Please seperate them into a different tab so they can have their space and we have ours.

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.

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?

Eliminate fake profiles
You need to do something to eliminate fake profiles on this site. I have literally had four messages in a row from clearly fake profiles in the past couple hours. It is making your site unusable.

Less intrusive ads
Currently, the ads are very intrusive, which hinders a good browsing experience. If I compare Grindr with Scruff, Scruff is definitely better because it has a better user experience since its ads are located in a specific section.
