Block failure
Once again I find myself re-blocking the same profiles. Day after day they mysteriously have reappeared. Sometimes they magically unblock themselves minutes after being blocked, sometimes it’s longer than that. But it never fails to be the same profiles over and over again that I have to reblock.
My issue with this?
1. Unsafe in some situations. IE: stalker, threats, harassment that people have come across. Blocking might be their only alternative to eliminate these situations.
2. Terms of service. Blocking is listed as a feature to the app where only the member can unblock a user.
3. One remaining feature which allows some sort of pleasurable use of the app due to the lack of filters or working filters.
4. Failure to provide services promised. Paid users owed refunds?
This isn’t a new or odd problem. More users are posting about this failure. There are plenty of problems posted about this app yet “new features” seem to be higher in the list (Boost!?)
Listen Grindr. Time to take action as your app needs constant maintenance. More so before you try to “enhance” it with new features.

Blocking was listed as unlimited. Seeing as I WAS paying $50 a month at the time, there is no excuse for Grindr limiting blocks. If they did limit them no one was told. The number of posts about this seem to confirm that no one was told there was now a limit on blocks.
Another example of shrinkflation. Raise prices and take away some thing.

I had the same issue and support told me that if you exceed the allowed number of blocks, any new block will come back right away.
