It's possible to integrate this idea by having users vote to validate other users

lots of junkies and drug dealer in grinder they need to be removed permanently.

Allow photo album to be unlockes or have preloaded groups of pics to send. Scruff is way easier to send pics

Use facebook or instagram to verify the profiles and use cloud server to prevent lag in sending messages

I agree

I really think the only way we can rid of all fake and spam profiles (which is a menace to all social networking apps) is to have a 'photo ID' verified feature where the user posts a copy of their government issued ID to Grindr and then posts a selfie with the user holding a piece of paper with a unique alphanumeric code (provided by administration) and another face picture (Which will be the profile ID picture) to grindr adminstration of which they will keep on a secure server database and then add that 2nd selfie as a hidden profile ID picture on the individuals profile. This can then be 'unlocked' to another user if the profile user releases it. That verified user should get a 'green tick' next to their profile title to show that they have been verified.
Ideally this should be a requirement for all new and existing profiles.
However, this would cost Grindr administration quite a bit of money but if this really was voted on and implemented then this would not only give Grindr a 'USP' that would set them apart from the competition but will certainly be good for the online community as a whole.
I would certainly be prepared to pay a fair amount of money as a charge Grindr can take if it's done properly and really does remove all those fake and scam profiles out there - well at least 95% as nothing might be foolproof but this is as foolproof as you can get.

You can already do this. The edit is in the upper right when the photos window is open

clear out the junk of money boys, solicitation, spammer, give more authenticity and protection to regulars

Hope there’s one important thing from Grindr that they should improve it,they can’t ban people so easy,that will turn me off and everyone who does use grindr

You CAN long press on them and there's an option to remove them from your photos .

Make it so we have to send grindr a picture of a valid photo ID to verify you are the person in the picture. And when done, show a tick or "verified" on the profiles which have done so, in turn weening out the pic collectors, catfishes and bots that I know we are all sick of...

I have old or unwanted photos in my profile album that I’d like to get rid of. There is no option for this. Instead more and more photos can be added but you can’t delete them. Some type of edit feature.

Ability to create a private album that I can unlock & send to other users as an easier way to share photos, instead of sending one by one.

Since Grindr is the #1 place for cat fishing, have a verification set to confirm face photo against profile pictures to combat this.

Any type of profile photo.

Make it to where people without pictures can't receive pictures. People without a profile picture should be incentivized to have a picture up by not getting pictures from anyone else until they do.

Maybe don’t allow profiles who don’t have profile pictures. No abs, no body parts, just the face.

Grindr should pair up with other companies (ie- Starbucks) to offer a 'date verify' service. You can input your credit card info ahead of time, and GUARANTEE someone a cup of coffee, or dinner, or drink. It also verifies the person is real & serious based on what type of date they wanted for that night... ;)

Get rid of spam bots

Add a verified icon saying others have met you and can vouch for your likeness and know it’s not a fake account or catfishing
