Identifying scammers
Hey guys. Not sure if you guys have been told about this or not. This was an idea the members came up with and it’s been passed along from member to member. There’s been such a huge onslaught of scammers on the site as you undoubtedly know. It’s almost impossible to maneuver around it. So what people have been asked to do if they’re suspicious is to ask the guy to do a selfie and instruct them to for example hold one finger up. That way you can see if the actual person matches the picture. The first time it…

Reporting onlyfans/duplicate profiles
First of all I'm sick and tired of all the only fans accounts as well second whenever I report a profile that is within my area for being spam or a fake profile the account is still showing 3 sometimes 5 days later. Speed up the process to delete these accounts

Verify account to reduce Ghosting and fake profiles
It appears Hosting and fake profile to solicit pictures and to raise user emotions before ghosting them is becoming more common than not.
Not only does this impact the mental health of users who are being ghosted, but it seriously impacts the user and makes them question their existence without our community.
Fake users are getting off on getting attention but never following through, nor ever going to meet, but lead the user on before blocking them 2 mins before meeting.There needs to be some facility within the app to verify the user, or a 'commit to meet' option…

Allow us to block people without having to receive a message first
Literally forcing us to receive a message first before we can block someone is the worst idea they’ve ever had!!!

Turn Off Grunt as default!
Keep grunt off as default. There were several times this went off & I thought my phone was hacked. It was alarming. Keep usual tap sound not grunt. This grunt will definitely cause issues with privacy & anyone trying to be discrete. Not ideal for ppl in the closet.

Dating tools do not exist. Let's build an in app wallet. I already started. wallet@grindr.design
Hello Grindr leadership! Let's get Grindr into merchant services. Whether it's going out on a date or in need lube, it would be convenient to exchange money on the app in my chat. Dating gets chaotic when we have to launch so many apps, call Lyft, and keep my hunny interested all the while. I want to offer rideshare in app as well.
These tools would promote a safer LGBTQ plus community and reduce the need to share more than necessary personal information when it's still not that serious in the relationship. So let's experiment and give each other a…

Identity Verification
Grindr should implement a comprehensive identity verification process to significantly reduce bots, fake profiles, and scam accounts. The verification system should operate similarly to identity checks used by government agencies and airport security, ensuring that every active profile belongs to a real individual.
Live Government ID Capture
The app should require users to take a real-time photo of their government-issued ID using the in-app camera. Uploading files, images, or documents should not be allowed, as this prevents altered or fraudulent materials from being submitted.Live Face Verification
Immediately following the ID scan, users should complete a live selfie capture. AI…

Fake profiles
Get your IT department to get rid of all the fake profiles currently plaguing Grindr. I have just blocked about 7 located nearby. It doesn't matter how many times I block these fake profiles they keep reappearing. Please do something about this.

Roll back roam
Are you fucking retarded? Your platform is already flooded with scammers and roam will just help facilitate that problem. Your management has already driven this platform into the ground, now you cater to scammers over real users. Typical corporate idiocy. Sorry your investors want a bigger pay day. Maybe if you provided a service that helped users rather than putting everything behind 15 layers of subscription you wouldn’t be circling the drain

When reporting someone put a place for scammers. And when a scammer is reported enough times shut their account down
You don't have any place to report scammers. And we users are tired of see all the scammers trying to get gift cards or cashapp. Or only fans or Snapchat or WhatsApp. Give us users a option to report scammers and take it seriously and if reports show scammers remove them and prevent them from making a new account to scam people we all are tiered of it and we are starting to go to different apps as we can nolonger find companionship on here with out fitting though hundreds of scammers filling up the screen

Make blocking and reporting spam easier
We can usually see pretty quickly from viewing a profile or message if it’s spam, or maybe someone we know and need to block urgently. Current state, we need to click on the profile or chat and are forced to watch a video before we can even block or report. This could be a safety issue if we’re blocking someone for a reason. We really should be able to block and report faster and easier. My suggestion would be for the add to have a delay which lets us hit the block or report button, and stops the add from…

Picture verification
While most of the profiles dont use their face as a profile picture
However
Would appreciate a verification status of each face picture sent in the chat
This will help avoid many spammers/scammers/ in some countries the authorities
As well as avoid multiple account creators1 vote -
Quickly report & block spam
This is similar to another submission, but goes a bit further, so I thought I should add it.
It takes 7 clicks to report and block a spam profile. Some steps are slow.
Sometimes it is necessary to report a number of identical or very similar spam profiles to make the Grindr grid even usable again!
The normal Grindr Hiding doesn't seem to work for travelling, roaming or boosted profiles. It only works for profiles that are indeed actually nearby. Spam profiles are not actually nearby, just appear so, so therefore normal Hiding doesn't work. The only option that works…3 votes -

Thanks for arming stalkers with the perfect tool! My stalker found me today because of you fukin twts. I know this because I have to have a blank fake just to protect myself on here!
