Dirty move towards forcing users to a pricey subscription.

No debieron bloquear el GPS a mí me ayudaba a conocer a muchos antes de ir a conocer el lugar en persona.
Que vuelva esa función.

I agree but I don't. I can see the desire for but there is enough fakeness on here that allowing one more is not needed. Besides most phones now allow you to use fake locations.

true

fake gps is good for a people who want to find his lover in every city everywhere

Hello, as of the last update on December 20, you can not use applications for fake location, such as the fake gps application, the message “cannot be updated, retry” appears continuously, please correct the following update in the next update error so that applications of false location can be used, since in previous versions of grindr they could be used without problems.

.someone who knows my workplace and home is always near me and create a discreet account. Ever since i.used a fake one he think i work or live somewhere now he gave.up because he cant take no for an answer. He is back again and i have to hide all my information and just open blank profile which is not my style. Now he uses fake pictures to reveal my self

grindr shouldn't be showing exact location in the first place, should be approximate for obvious safety reasons

yes i commute half way to the other side of the city to meet people

And in many countries this has exposed genuine users to harsh punishments from their anti gay governments - without warning.
There must be better ways to stop fake profiles?

Disable Google location services as this prevents users with fake gps app from changing location. Fake gps app is used for security purpose.

Why u stopped use of fake locations? Are u trying to get gays to be targeted? Or selling the data of location for political use? Should be an option for the user to select this.

I agree

I travel.the uk regularly with work, and used fake gps to decide where to book a hotel. .based on the guys in a particular area. Please an this be allowed again..as it really helped me to decide where to stay.

Hi!
I know using fake GPS does not comply with your privacy rules. However, blocking fake GPS is not ok with many guys. Many guys including me have been using it to track their partners. It's one of the ways we use to find out if we are being cheated or not. Some reasons to unblock it is listed below:
1. If we are able to find that out partner is cheating on us then we can actually decide to be or not to be in a relationship. This helps us to choose a good partner. Mentally, not trying to track my partner currently has affected me a lot. And many other guys have been affected by it. The explore search option is a good thing in your app but still it doesn't give exact location. Infact, today I feel like I am being cheated by my partner. How do I manage this situation? Fake gps was the only way to catch him.

2. Sometimes, our partners sleep with other guys and then never tell us. What if they get some infection afraid HIV and transfer it to us? Also, not all guys are on prep (not affordable) and so, it's easy that they will get hiv. Fake GPS was the only way to feel safe and be sure that I am not being cheated and I am safe from STDs.

Hope Grindr will listen to this problem. Please, unblock fake GPS as soon as possible.

I agree with all the comments, allow mock/fake locations!

Bloquear fake GPS es la peor decisión que han tomado. De haberlo sabido no hubiera actualizado grindr
