Distance Controls
Allow a user to be able to set distance parameter for whom they are seeing. Meaning that I only want to see users who are within a set distance from me. And likewise for users who see me so we don’t waste our time viewing people outside of our desired location radius.

I wish you guys would fix the distance feature... since people are able to shut the feature off I wish you guys would still list what state they're in it should be mandatory that you show the state.... and if they're not in the US you should List It

In agree with this. I don't think users should be able to turn this feature off entirely because it allows for fake profiles, which I consider Grindr's biggest drawback. Because stalking can also be a problem, perhaps make 5 miles the least distance one can have on the low end of Distance settings... with a notation that 5 miles is an estimate/skewed Distance. The upper end can be set to whatever the user desires.

Totally agree! You have filters for everything else, we NEED one bad!!!!! For the distance. Nothing like getting along great with someone only to find out they’re 300 miles away! Waste of time for everyone

Buy Grindr stock then participate in the quarterly meetings! Despite not giving a crap about the users, the Grindr owners certainly care about their shareholders.. who they have made a LOT of money as of late.. likely in advance of selling to Match

Grindr takes your money and then does nothing to solve problems.

I totally agree with the idea and don't understand why it hasn't been implemented yet

لقد سئمت من رؤية الأشخاص الذين هم على بعد 500 ميل !! أريد فقط أن أرى الناس على بعد 20 ميلاً كحد أقصى.

I agree its extremely frustrating as a majority are investors "scammers" looking for your money

I know that I have been complaining about it for well over the past year or more. We need more control over distance and no profile picture.

We have been complaining about this for well over a year and nothing has been done.

C Absolutely agree! Especially when you can't delete them from you "Viewed Me" page. Totally ridiculous.

I am absolutely sick of getting messaged/tapped by people who are hundreds of miles away. If they're looking that far, they're either creeps or spammers. I've turned off "show me in Explore searches" yet I still get this junk from randos who are hours and hours away. I want to be able to set a maximum radius and then my entire Grindr universe BECOMES THAT SIZE. No one can see me, communicate with me, or show up in my grid if they are outside that radius.

This is a great idea and would help with people who are close by

I miss the nearby feature. However Grindr never seems to pay attention.

Ok, so I live 80 +km from the nearest reasonable sized town. I drive that far to shop yet I get told I'm to far away to play with without even discussing the situation. If you live in the country expect to come across blokes outside your narrow search area who aren't so hung up on the distance and are prepared to travel to meet and play with guys of interest. Stop being so pretentious and actually talk to blokes who take the time to message you. No reply is not a reply, it simply reveals how self important you think you are. U believe yourself to be to good to reply well one day nobody may message you at all.
