There should be an option to add your COVID vaccination status for the safety of all of the community, especially essential workers and personnel. A resource page could be added to help direct people to a page where they can find info on vaccination availability in their area and time frame. Options could be "Vaccinated", "Partially Vaccinated", "Plan to vaccinate", and "No plan to vaccinate".

The amount of spammers/scammers has EXPLODED and become unbearable.

It would be great if Grindr engineers used some ML (machine learning) models to preemptively flag potential spammers/scammers and then ban/remove accounts when only 1-2 users report them as spam, instead of the current system of what seems like "manual verification" and probably wait for "enough" users to report a profile.

It would be important from a security perspective that any user has the option to have all the content erased from all conversations (especially pictures). That way privacy can be maintained for discreet people and if you decide to log out for a while then no one has access to the photos you sent while you're away from the app.

Users should be notified of/have the ability to block other users from non-consensual screenshots of the photos we send, our chats, and our profiles.

If someone blocks me, I also lose all the chat I had with that person. But what if the person has been threatening me and I got proof in the chat about a crime or anything like that... if they block me, I lose it all. It shouldn’t be like that!!!

Some how stop the scammers wanting me to go a 3rd party site for sex. I continue to block them but more keep coming rhrough

Much like how tinder verifies the users by submitting a photo to be approved by Grindr employees to verify that the person that is on the account profile is the person behind the account itself. No one likes a catfish and it would greatly improve the safety of being on this app.

Have you ever considered that it is normal to verify a person with some kind of document and to limit the misuse of accounts and new accounts constantly? Vote to stop all crazy people who are constantly creating new accounts and harassing other users by insulting and manipulating, let's stop anonymity and madness in some way by banning IP address, email, phone number or personal data from documents! Thanks

I’d like to know what users have blocked me

By allowing some of the “Xtra,” features that you charge a tremendous amount of money for just isn’t right. We should all have the right to show if we’re online or not as wel as have more blocks so we don’t get harassed constantly. There’s also so many scammers that seek to get our money and become more clever by the day. Those Xtra features could prevent someone from losing hundreds to even thousands of dokk

Prevent our profile photos from being stolen by hackers by blocking the screen capture function

Expiring photos and the ability to block screenshots are safety considerations and shouldn’t be locked behind a paywall. Please include these features at the free level as well.

Verify accounts, one per phone number, black list abusers by phone number or IP address.
Also- when blocked by scammer first- we can’t see profile to report it. Leave a window to report a profile that is suspected scammer or pic/info miner. Reach out to your tech moguls about this kind of gig and how they vet this process?

When we block people, it's probably because we are not interested, they have been naughty, or sometimes while reporting them, sometimes fake profiles.

My idea is, since now on Grindr there is the phone number verification, I'd like to say if we block someone, Grindr should also not allow us to see accounts they might create again. Grindr should block automatically the account they would like to create so we csbt see them nomore

Blur ALL screenshots for all users!
Sending expiring photo’s are great, if you’re paying for it?
What I don’t understand is why grindr is putting their users at risk by not blurring ANY screenshots on the app.
Us users put a lot of trust in the app and to feel safe we need to pay? Wow, literally putting a price on people’s safety.
It doesn’t not matter if your a paying member of a free member, nothing should be allowed to be screenshot (pics/conversations).

Do better Grindr. DO BETTER.

Nothing is worse than being catphished on the app. I have used other dating platforms where I would have to verify the photo I’m using is actually me. It’s just nice to know I’m not putting in all that work just for someone to be fake.
