Drug monitoring
The app is full of drug addicts, sellers and people that put at risk others with their substances.
I see so many people here in Mexico selling cristal or slam and a lot of users of it, using emojis to hide their substance usage.
I believes both a feature that monitors this emojis they use to talk about said substances is much needed, even it making a report to the police.
For other substances such as Alcohol, tabaco, marihuana and poppers there should be a block for people that do not want to match with others that do.

I think as you have banned the use of words like ‘cum’ you should ban the term HNH in all its forms. I’m so disheartened and worried about the guys around me who are using drugs and having sex. I’m particular meth use, it’s a situation which has been exacerbated by the pandemic. Even one slide offer help and support for meth use could make a difference ✌🏽✌🏽✌🏽✌🏽

There should be a greater verification of profiles, at present, you can not meet people in the application, at least here in Chile, it is full of drug sellers and although we reports and blocks, more continue to arrive. Please do something about it.

I'm 11 years sober and drug free. In looking to protect my sobriety, I seek to avoid meeting guys on Grindr who use drugs, nor do I want to be around them.
My profile used to say "drug free" but Grindr has since blocked the word "drug" from profile text.
AS IF anyone is saying "let's get together and use drugs!" in their profile!!!
Grindr:
Immediately remove the word "drug" from your filters
ADDITIONALLY: Create some way that we can clearly indicate "drug free" in our profiles that is UNMISSABLE and unmistakable.
Let's not pretend you really care all that much about censoring drug use. As it is people will use capiTal leTTers and various emojis to indicate drug use, and this is just fine with Grindr.
