Every time someone logs in to Grindr they have something different in mind. This is why the static category of “looking for” is not useful. If you were to ask as soon as you open, you can better connect people looking for the same thing at that specific time. For example, today I may be looking just for a chat, but tomorrow I may be looking for hookups. And even further, I can be looking for hookup right now or hookup later. By using this feature people are more likely to find what they want to get out of each time.
