messages not going through
This is happening more and more and it's very frustrating I actually paid to use Grindr but this happens more than usual! Messages not going through 4 hours two fellow Grindr users as if mywifi is down and that's not true because I've actually tested it with other apps and other forms of communication and emails and messages go through fine but on Grindr they don't go through! Also your filter app part of Grindr is missing vital Parts like race? And other features that help locate an individual sometimes it's there sometimes it's not I'm really considering not paying…

Restore the original ethnicity filter option back.
I'm a white male and I live in a area that there's very little to none diversity. Before the ethnicity filter got removed, it made it a lot more easier to find different people of race and color but since it's removal, it's so hard to find them anymore. It would make it so much more better if the filter got restored back to it's former glory and I could meet different people

Verifying every user when they first sign up- too many profiles with NO pictures!
For verification purposes. Like tinder and MOST other dating/hookup apps have some sort of photo verification system to prove that it’s actually who you say you are. I am SO SICK OF ALL THESE USERS ON GRINDR WITH NO PHOTOS! in my opinion, I think it should be a requirement that if you want to be on Grindr then you need to have a clear, visible unaltered face picture of what you look like, so other members can see who all is in the room AND it’s especially annoying when those exact people with no pictures on their profile go…

All the girls. This is a gay app. Why are so many girls on Grindr? Can there not be a separate app or even a broad filter? pun intended.
Have a filter available to everyone which can actively keep girls from showing up near me. I don’t pay for unlimited or xtra and half of my available slots of filled up with girls or boys dressed like girls. This is a gay service. I don’t want to see all these girls on there. Most of them are scary looking and it’s very off putting. Either make a different site/app for t-girls and boys interested in them, provide some kind of filter to screen them from view, or something because I am so over it.

Make Grindr Free Again
We can only talk to 9 ppl on the fresh page & only about 15 on the normal page. Anyone else you have to pay to talk to them. This rolled out within the last week for me we use to able to have a huge range before you did have to pay. This is absurd and an attack on LGBTQ. As lonely as you can be in this community (speaking for closeted,DL,etc) grindr is suppose to be a space to come together and connect with your community, how DARE you try to monetize off that and making ppl feel…

More character spaces and more
Need more space on bio, not being able to put there what I need to leads to unwanted and unnecessary contact, 255 characters is nothing, I need about 800-1000 characters and same for display name.
We should be able to send mobile numbers via chat too, I've noticed I can't and we are all adults.

Location accuracy
So…we should be able to set a distance on how far we’re looking for hookups. I search in the “explore” section in an area 5 miles from my house and Grindr constantly insists that profiles 100-500 miles away is “nearby”. If I search for profiles in Austin, TX it doesn’t make sense to show me profiles from Dallas, TX. That’s NOT nearby. That’s a 3-4 hour difference. Location accuracy NEEDS to be updated.

Using "Right Now" by mistake.
The "Right Now" feature on Grindr is great for quick connections, but its instant activation from a single tap on the home screen has created a problem, specially for big bears with big fingers like me. Users often accidentally activate the 60-minute session, and since it's a paid feature, this results in unwanted charges and frustration.
To fix this, I suggest implementing a confirmation pop-up before the "Right Now" session actually starts. This would give users a chance to confirm their intent, preventing accidental spending.
Here's an example of what the pop-up text could look like:
Are you sure you…

Favorite
Please restore Favorites to how it worked before and restore the search function for Favorites. Since you shifted Favorites to the top, the function does not work as well and is not useful since you made the change.

Remove For You feature
Just remove it. I have filters set so I see what i want. There is no obvious learning tech put into it because it is suggesting men completely the opposite of how my filters are set. There is no reason to show me profiles I dont want to see unless the intention is simply to annoy someone

Trans bots/toggle for trans/gay
There should be separation between straight men who are after trans individuals strictly, and gay men after gay men. On top of that, you have a massive problem with trans women bots. They’re not real people, they are scattered all over the grid. It’s obnoxious. This app gets worse and worse as the days progress, unfortunately.

Blocked Users
Stop allowing blocked users to still have access to our profile. That’s completely stupid. That’s why they block so they can’t see us. A boy I blocked yesterday and on the blocklist STILL messaged me. That makes Grindr a dangerous creepy app.

Add BlueSky to social media options
With Twitter/X being garbage, many are migrating to BlueSky. It would be great to have the social media as an option so users interested in viewing the profile, just needs to click life it is currently for Instagram, Twitter, Facebook.
