If they don't want to put their face up then make a category for only the face not shown to be in that category that way they can all be together until they change their mind and put their face on there it's a good incentive

The option of not showing blank profiles should return as a free feature for the app.
Currently both options of only showing profiles with a face picture or with any picture are only allowed to XTRA members, though they were both introduced for all users during their testing. Having a way of hiding blank profiles provide a simple convenience and extra safety for using the app. Since recognizing face pictures requires a harder development effort it'd be acceptable to be allowed for XTRA members only. Nobody's obliged to fill any pictures in their profiles if they wish so just as much nobody should be obliged to keep having blanked profiles all around while checking the app.

Strongly suggest adding the ability to block messages from either faceless profiles or profiles without pictures. I spend more time deleting messages from profiles that are either closeted, liars, or scammers. Most of these (but not all) come from profiles without pictures. Most Grindr users state they won’t respond to these profiles so why not just add the ability (perhaps to extra subscribers) to block these.

The hole point of a profile is to let people know what u look like . Your body structure. Things about you and so forth. But people don't fill them out and it's annoying. Everyone should have to fill there profile out completely or they get flagged and can't use the site.

It should be mandatory that before you can join the community online you need to have a reasonable pic of yourself available

Block people with blank profiles from hitting up people with pictures on their profile. Please stop the madness. It is irritating as hell. Blank profiles should only be able to see and interact with other blank profiles.

I don't think so, because anyone like myself from a small town doesn't want to put their face on there for confidentiality. everyone here knows me, and I don't want my face on any profile for them to be bullying criticizing, or any other kind of of harassment. and that's exactly what it would be

It's absolutely respectable to not show anything in the profile, but it also absolutely abusive to take advantage of others not doing that, and probable stealing pictures.

If your going to have a complete blank profile then you should only be able to see other blank profiles.

Users should have an option not to be visible in search of blank profiles at all or should have the option to block all blank profiles within let’s say 5 miles ratio with a click of a single button. Blank profiles are most often REALLY DODGY and they should either not be allowed at all or should be limited to seeing only other blank profiles though.

I'm so tired of having to ask people for face pics. It's EXHAUSTING. It actually deters me from using the app. Right or wrong people make the decision of whether or not they want to talk to someone based on immediate appearance and the sea of faceless accounts that make up most of the app are honestly just not worth digging deeper into , especially when getting a face pic out of alot of them is like pulling teeth and ends up being a waste of time.

Main Profile Picture is taken via the camera on the smartphone, must be a head shot, this will unlock free albums and additional profile pictures and bio under existing free membership.
*If the user chooses not to upload a live photo and verify the profile,
A blank avatar picture and NO bio or details, all chats and photos shared are deleted automatically every 24 hours, - completely anonymous.
Profile public review's, this will put an immediate stop to bullying, abuse, transfobia and so on.
If a user can see comments from other users (comments deleted automatically every 30 days )on the persons genuine authenticity, humour or if they are homophobic and so on, it's will do two things,
1. Comments in a drop down box with fixed multiple options e.g looked like pictures, sense of humour, made eye contact when chatting.
These key things are very hard to fake and are very important abilities and emotions to show to make the guest comfortable around you .2. Gradually people will chat less with the known fake profiles or aggressive behaviour and harrassment towards anyone and are less likely to engage or tap the profile,
This way men can feel safer meeting someone, Trans can feel safe meeting a person knowing they are trans and not transphobic, and so on..
Removing gender, pronouns, age these are the cause of conflicts, by publicly having that information available, anyone with a different opinion are creating a unsafe platform for people to express how they feel without being judged.
It will also force people to engage in actually conversation.
I understand for filter and stats etc you need this information simply turn off it's visibility to viewers...

Can you make it where there is always at least a dummy profile picture? I don't want to start a chat with somebody that I can't see anything about. I would like to at least be able to see their profile text.

It’s irritating that blank profiles are able to see/contact people’s profiles without being required to fill in a thing. I understand being discreet, but blank profiles make up 50% of the profiles I see.

Profiles without any public pictures should not be able to send messages to members who do. These profiles are a pain.
It can be taken one step further by making verified public face photos only accessible for viewing as long as the viewing profile has a verified public face picture as well. No tug of war over who sends first.

Past previously uploaded photos seem to be pending approval forever. Like months

Require face pics or allow us to block those without face pics. If you look like Jason Voorhees, I don't care about your abs, which aren't supposed to be showing any way since we can't post nudity

Profiles with verified photos only. There are far too many profiles with no photos. If you have Grindr you have a phone that can take pictures. It'll get rid of fakes and under age
