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.

Everyone should feel comfortable and have the safety to know users can’t screenshot their profile or impersonate them, or even worse post their pictures.
Everyone should have the option to send unlimited expiring pictures or have unlimited blocks without having to pay for that option.
Safety is not a luxury… -

So I was wondering since there are so many scammers out there on your app abusing and hurting ppl like me, could you make it impossible to screenshot images. Some apps like the CBS sports app make the screen white if there is a screenshot. This would make it a little harder and would mean a lot less people get hurt.

Screen recording and screenshot of video calls should be disabled for privacy reasons.

Disallow screenshots everywhere on the app. Even on the feed. Also disallow screen recording.

Agreed.
Seems Grindr aren't interested in safety or fake accounts. -

Buenas tardes, no se debería de permitir hacer pantallazos de las fotos que se envían, la privacidad es muy importante para todos, no solo para los usuarios de pago.

Please restrict the user to take the screenshot of the pics which we sent it in the chat.

Blur ALL screenshots for all users!
Sending expiring photo’s are great, if you’re paying for it?
What I don’t understand is why grindr is putting their users at risk by not blurring ANY screenshots on the app.
Us users put a lot of trust in the app and to feel safe we need to pay? Wow, literally putting a price on people’s safety.
It doesn’t not matter if your a paying member of a free member, nothing should be allowed to be screenshot (pics/conversations).Do better Grindr. DO BETTER.

There's a lot of catfishing and photos being taken and use to create profiles. I have unfortunately found out that someone has been using my photo to talk to other guys.

For the safety of users please introduce functionality that blocks people from taking screenshots of profile photos and the profiles themselves as it contains private personal information which should be protected.

Please, disable the screenshots from regular pictures we send. This option is only available on the expiring photos and we need this in the regular photos we send for safety and privacy. PLEASE!!

Expiring photos and the ability to block screenshots are safety considerations and shouldn’t be locked behind a paywall. Please include these features at the free level as well.

Notify user when someone screenshots their photos whether it’s their profile or whether it’s pictures that were sent in the chat. This will help eliminate others from using your photos and impersonating you, which has increasingly become an issue.

Many people send explicit photos on this app and some people do not like to get on other apps like Snapchat where it’s easier to share these photos so if we had the screen shot alert it would make people feel so much safer with sharing their photos and it should be included without getting and extra or unlimited package

No Screenshots for 10-second photos, please.
The whole point of having a 10-second photo is so others can be discreet and safe about what they send to one another. If someone screenshots it, the whole idea of discreet safety flies out the window.
If you prohibit screenshots from 10-second photos it will create a more safe and honest environment for the LGBTQA+ community. Especially for those who are trying to be discreet and/or closeted due to pressuring and strict family/ religious status.

Prevent our profile photos from being stolen by hackers by blocking the screen capture function

Whenever someone screen shots the chat or a picture you send it should be blocked or at least notify the user on the other end of the chat!

Disable screenshots on app completely, there are these cheap ass catfishers who basically are identity thieves and Grindr's moderation is slower than a sea turtle when you report those dumbos. It'd be just better to disable allowing screenshots so that it doesn't happen in the first place and solve the Major issue with this app, "impersonation", to a large extent.
