Screenshot Notifications/Blocking
Users should be notified of/have the ability to block other users from non-consensual screenshots of the photos we send, our chats, and our profiles.

Why not just add for everyone, the option, to not allow screenshot sendet picture. As it is already programmed in Pro mode with the time-limited viewing of sent images, because as I really appreciate this function for users, but I don't always want to just display all images allow viewing for a limited time. But I would appreciate it if my pictures generally don't could be copied.

Develop software so that pictures and or message content sent in confidence can’t be forwarded onto other contacts. I know that Facebook has incorporated this feature which puts a stop to revenge porn being spread. The technology is already here and I am positive that this would improve Grindr and make its users feel a safer confidence. And possibly this would help stop the blank profiles and it’s catfishes.

You can screenshot disappearing messages, or even record them. You should be not able to do so.

Hi, It’s been a month since I’ve started using Grindr. There have been many cases where I’ve sent my picture to someone and they screenshot the conversation then crop my pic and start using it as their DP. I’m fed of those guys. Can you please remove the limit for expiring pictures that free users have? Expiring pics are awesome cause there is no way to take a screenshot of the pic.

When people send expiring picture means they don’t want other people save their picture or even some chat histories. However People who chatting with you can make quick screenshot to save those expiring picture and unsend (pull delete) messages. I thinks better disabled screenshot on Grindr app or at least make a notification to the other guy that his picture or chat histories been screenshot recorded by the person you are chatting with with.

To stop the pic collectors and fake profiles who steal and use genuine users pictures, there should be a notification & blank screen effect when another user attempts to screenshot your pictures.

Keep videos unlimited for free users but for the sake of privacy, make it so screenshots can't be taken of videos (just like how they are blocked when taken of expiring photos) so discreet people can send real face pics without fear.

The idea of disallowing screen shot in the app is a good one. But one can still screen record in the app thereby getting access to information that made the screenshot disabling a success

Can we include a notification or a message if someone takes screenshot of the messages or pictures in the chat similar to snapchat

People are taking screen shot of other people's personal pictures n profile pictures and using that for illigal activities and black mailing. This is a very big treat for community. Criminals and blackmailers are really using Grindr as their tool. Please look into this matter.

Why isn't there some type of lock feature for your pictures ? It's so easy for people to take a screenshot and have a copy of it.

Have screen shot and video screen shot disabled to avoid miss use of other users pictures. Have expiring pictures (10 seconds view)

Please implement screenshot blocked for all. This will help people to trust the app and users will start updating the profile pics. Surely it will give sense of security specially in developing country users. Upsets will spread this new feature updates and encourage others to use it safely. Instead of having just limited expiring pic options making while profile itself screenshot blocked will bring more users to app. Please give some thoughts on this.

I just recently had to block a profile. After I did, I decided that I actually need to report him for harassment because he made a new profile to message me again. I went back to unblock him so I could report him but the messages were erased and I couldn’t include screenshots to show the admins. I wish there was a feature allowing us to upload screenshots of the conversations to further prove that a user is violating the user agreement.

Like BLUED, they actually blocked screen recording and screenshot for security purposes. That would be great to prevent catfishing and gay-shaming in public. And please make the video call for free user...that's one of the important way to recognise their face and prevent the scammer to ask for phone numbers.

Great idea, to be honest. Pic collectors make a lot of people - myself included - nervous about using the app.
