likes on photos
Allow users to double-tap or tap a heart icon on individual profile photos to signal interest without needing to send a generic "hey".
How it works:
Double-Tap: Tap any specific picture on a user's grid profile.
Targeted Alert: The user gets a notification highlighting which photo you liked.
Chat Anchor: If a chat opens, the liked photo appears as the starting context.
Why it works:
Eliminates awkward icebreakers by giving an immediate topic to talk about.
Shows profile owners which photos actually perform best.
Keeps browsing low-pressure while driving higher chat engagement.

This is a great feature suggestion for Grindr – allowing users to double-tap or tap a heart icon on individual profile photos would make it easier to show interest without sending a generic "hey." The idea of using the liked photo as a chat anchor is smart and would give an immediate conversation starter. For those taking a break from app feedback, https://magneticslots.cz/ offers some light entertainment. How do you currently show interest in someone's profile?
