Along with a no screenshot policy on the app as whole rather than only for expiring pictures (which should be free and unlimited for all FYI), it would be even safer for everyone to have to send a verification picture before being able to use the app and connect to people.

This is for the app to confirm the person is legit, it doesn’t mean we all have to have a public profile picture up if we don’t want to. But verification should be non negotiable

Surge do it so not sure why Grindr can’t

Photo authentication. Have a “verified” photo tick on the profile so you can see they are who they say they are.. this has been an issue with this app ever since it was created!
Too manly fake profiles and trolls.

I decided to abandon the app, after recently a user decided to harass me from various users, blocking does not help because he is re-create users. the only way is to see the profile creation details.

I think we should have a means where we could identify if someone is for real or not ....if the account is very real the we tick verified ...
Also take not of those people that do say false things about others just to get them off because they are not comfortable with the person

The phone number register feature is useless, typing the phone number to find account never works, plus it makes people using grindr and able to send messages on grindr such a joke. It messes up everything.

Please add age verification! It really is creepy when meting guys who are 10+ years older then they claim😥!

Verification/registration by phone number should work

By allowing some of the “Xtra,” features that you charge a tremendous amount of money for just isn’t right. We should all have the right to show if we’re online or not as wel as have more blocks so we don’t get harassed constantly. There’s also so many scammers that seek to get our money and become more clever by the day. Those Xtra features could prevent someone from losing hundreds to even thousands of dokk

Olá e gostaria que sugerir a exclusão pra mim dos perfis que coloco para bloqueio, o app não bloqueia o contato definitivamente , no dia seguinte eu já consigo ver a outra pessoa inclusive mandar mensagem. E gerou constrangimento pra mim por que teve perfil que bloquiei e vieram dizer palavrões por eu ter feito o bloqueio. E também gostaria de colocar aqui uma reclamação, por que existe perfis que eu converso e que os mesmos estão pegando minhas fotos sem roupa e se passando por mim enviando pra outros contatos, como faço para reclamar isso e como podemos fazer para banir esse tipo de gente ? Também recebo mensagens de perfis falsos de SUGAR DAADY com números e textos em inglês sendo que são criminosos tentando extorquir as pessoas do app.

Came here to suggest the same thing. I have a particular user that seems to enjoy pretending to be different people and harassing me. It doesn't do any good to block him because he just creates a new profile (Grindr really should limit the number of profiles a user is able to make, like Scruff does). In addition, I use an iPhone, so it doesn't show the blue sparkle icon indicating that it is a new profile (this icon only shows on Android for some reason). Showing "member since" would help us greatly identify people like these, and fake profiles since Grindr doesn't seem to be addressing this other ways.

Sorry, but you cannot fix age at 21, as the legal age (or age of consent) varies according to State/Country local laws.

Just WHEN will Grindr ACT ???!!!... It's plain and easy. Just DO IT ! Thanks !

My pic and profile are not showing

There are tons of LGBTQ folks who struggle with poverty. That is nothing new. Therefore, many younger gays don’t have working cell phones. Stop excluding them and making things EVEN harder. Find a way to verify people WITHOUT phone numbers. Make it just a little bit easier on some of us. Please.

I'm 16 and I'd love to meet new people/teenagers from the LGBTQ+ community, but it's really hard to find someone irl. You can use some kind of verification to check if the user is 16+ / 18-. It would help A LOT of teenagers like me and reduce the fake 18+ accounts created by minors (18-). Thanks if you'll see this ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜.

Debido a los ataques homofóbos.actuales sugiero que el filtro de _solo con foto de perfil _no sea de pago .sobre todo porque está app tiene un asesino que no está identificado y le dicen el asesino de grindr .en los medios de comunicación .hagamos algo con esto por favor

Hi Grindr Team,
i found a bug on your app. i m use anybody person's email id or fake email id for create a grindr account.
when i create grindr account then grindr app not required email otp for veify email id. Thats why many people use fake information while using grindr app. Hope you take a action to solve this problem.
Thank You Grindr team

System to verify that the person is actually using photos of him / her
