Some Thoughts on the Current App Experience
One of the biggest pain points right now is message delivery and visibility. Sometimes messages don’t show as delivered or read, and it’s unclear whether the other person is active, offline, or has blocked you. Improving message status transparency would really enhance the user experience.
Also, ads have become more intrusive, especially full-screen ones with timers. I understand the need for monetization, but it affects the flow of usage, particularly during chats.
A better filter system for preferences (such as interests, serious vs casual, etc.) would also be helpful in finding more relevant matches.
Thanks for asking — looking forward…1 vote -
Spam
Grindr should block including links in messages until both users have messaged each other. This I think would cut down a lot on spam accounts who send messages trying to get users to open websites outside of Grindr.
I never send first messages that contain links, and from real users I never receive them as well. I would imagine it wouldn’t really inconvenience many people.

removing links / social media handles
REMOVING links/and other things like connecting social medias only leads to spam users abusing grindr as a way to promote there business or lead users away from the app and into other suspicious links. If a user wants to share that information it should only be done via messages if the connection between two users is genuine. Instead of spam accounts creating accounts that arent ment for what the app is intended for and just creating a stream of billboards

Manual spam filter, block messages with a specific phrase
So many of your spam bots have such simple patterns. Why not just let us handle that ourselves by allowing us to specify a blocked phrase, such that if a user introduces a new chat with said phrase, the chat request skips notifications? Perhaps add a separate chat list for spam too and add a little notification dot to it too, like how email works.

Adding new people if you have blocked the old ones
Once you have blocked someone off your free grid area, it should be replaced with new people rather than saying “X people blocked”.

only get notifications from accounts chats you’ve responded to
it would be nice to be able to limit the number of notifications you get. having a setting that would only notify you of activity on chats you’ve engaged with would cut out a lot of noise

Non disclosure
Instead of just accusing users of advertising and solicitation, maybe quote where such user has dine so. User may have unwillingly made this error yet get threatened with banning of account. Maybe you should just ban everyone with no proof. This app is losing momentum. Specially with all these unsolicited adverts which is a complete irritation. Grindr needs to get with the times and take that carrot out its backside

Allow us to turn off grid for new people and only stay with those in the chat.
It would be good if one is overwhelmed by the amount of new people or even if one is trying to stop hooking up but still have like 2 people that they wanna talk to through the app, if they could turn off grid for them and turn off their profile for others. Allowing them to use the chat feature but not new ones. Tinder and Hinge “pause” your profile for new ones and allow you to still chat with the ones you have, same could be done here.

AI and Facial Recognition for Spambot detection
These profiles often reuse the same formatting, social media links, pictures etc. Grindr should be using AI and Facial recognition to spot and remove Spambots before they even become active on the app.

Tag for sex workers
It would be very convenient and a huge time saver to have sex workers or people who want to profit from the app have a mandatory tag or label that makes it easier to identify and/or filter out. Sex work is work and it should not be stigmatized but there are plenty of people who are not transparent about their true intentions until much later in the conversation/interaction. If people want to advertise their services or work they should be able to do so but make it clear in their profile what their intention is from the app

These God damn Trans are over taking over the site. Implement a feature where you can filter out all trans from appearing on your profile

Simplify report reasons
What is spam? What is fake? What is asking for location and telegram in the first message? I don't know. Let me just report without bothering me with category. I can type why if you need. But now it's a puzzle. Do you even use the reason? Make reporting faster given the shitload of automatic messages!

Word filter
Dear GrindR,
I had been using your service since I was 18, and recently, in the world of AI more and more BOT accounts spreading spams on your platform. It is hard to tackle with it both as a moderator and user.
To tackle this issue I think a “word filtering system” could be adapted. Most unsolicited spams and ads are worded the same or most similar ways. If users could add those words or sentences to their Word Filter it could automatically improve user experience.
Word filter also could be used for people who are sensitive to cursing, or…1 vote -

Galley Tab with photos sent on messages
Create a tab where people can see a gallery of images sent on messages without having to scroll back the entire feed. The tab can be next to albuns. Also pleaaaase don’t make it limited because this is just an easier way to search for the images already sent to the user and xtra features are way too expensive!!
People can also go to someone profile from the photo, same way albuns allow.
Also if you could make albuns free of limit it would be great! People already have the incentive to subscribe to see more people nearby, other limited…1 vote
