“Looking Now” and “Hosting Now” icons
It would be helpful to have a simple toggle that can be turned on or off if you're actively looking for “right now,” as well as an icon like a little house that indicates you can host and a walking character icon if you cannot. Turning the feature “on” could either highlight your profile in the cascade or add a symbol like a flame next to your display name.
(Some profiles say they are “Looking For: Right Now” in their profile but may not actually mean it, so this would help with that.)

I love this idea. I know i have my "right now" selected on my profile but I never remember to change it when I just randomly open the app when I'm at work or something

Offer an easy to toggle setting that indicates that the user is looking and available. The "Looking For: Right Now" category in the profile is used to signal that a user is generally willing to hook up, but that may change under whatever specific circumstances, so it can get tedious to shift through profiles and see who is actually looking right then. So, a "Looking Now" flag would cut down on unwanted messages on two fronts: people don't have to send endless "Looking?" messages, and people don't have to field endless "Looking?" messages.

There should be a filter to search for people who are ready to hook up right away or in the next few hours/minutes.

It would be great knowing why other users are online. "looking for now" "looking for later" "looking for love" "not looking now"

100% agree this is totally needed. Having the “Right Now” in the looking for section on your main profile isn’t a true reflection of if your are looking for a hook up right that second.

Yes an option that will put a little emoji sign by the person pic to see who is looking who is chating not looking. Then you can filter people out based on preferences

Please consider adding a “HOSTING” Icon that would be bisable on the Members photo while browsing. The members could activate the I on in Grindr Xtra

It would be helpful to simply have a toggle feature that either highlights the profile or ads a symbol when you are looking to mess around.

It would be cool if you could have a green, yellow, or red icon on your profile to identify if you can host at the time or not. Green meaning you can host, yellow meaning you can host but have to be very quiet or discreet, and red meaning that you can’t host.

Create status "Looking for later" - Makes the difference between "right now" (now means now) and "looking for later" (means later today or in next few days)

This feature would be a game changer. There is a disconnect relating to how immediate the demand for a hookup is. Sometimes I’m not at all ***** and sometimes I want someone immediately. Every day/moment is different. My suggestion is to allow us the option to choose a mood ‘ring’ around our profile pics. So just like the existing app creates a yellow border around an incoming messenger, there should be an option to select your mood ‘ring’ color. I like the idea of a blue to red color gradient. Blue being a cool, just chillin aka zero chance of meeting up. White would be default—not one way or the other. And dark Red would be like red hot im ready at this moment. Would be nice to have a slider to select mood. I get a lot of guys clearly ***** (red hot) messaging me excessively and I feel like they’re wasting their time. And perhaps when I’m super ***** I’m sending out messages to guys who are at brunch with their grandparents. Whereas If his ‘ring’ was blue blue I would have saved us both the headache. Please help us match based on our moods! Please reach out for further discussion.

Right Now Radar Detector - have your phone ping whenever someone who has Right Now in their profile is less than so many feet away.

You should have people set daily if they are hosting, traveling or both.
