Hide my profile from accounts without photos
It’s unfair that guys can browse my photos without posting any of their own. Give us the option to hide our profiles from accounts without photos.

Can't block anybody anymore, and people 15+ miles away show up on the grid for the non paying user
Removing the "block" feature and instead making users jump through hoops to "hide" someone is fucking ridiculous and dangerous. I've had a stalker try multiple times to find/connect with me through the app, and having to hit so many buttons after long, scam adds that auto download bloatware and malware on your phone when you try and hit the miniscule "x" in the corner 4 fucking times first is downright dangerous. On top of that, filling the grid for unpaid users with people 15+ miles away next to people actually close enough to chat with is ridiculous. Useless moderation for…

Proposal to enhance engagement and safety
I am writing to propose a set of enhancements that could significantly improve user safety, engagement, and overall experience on Grindr. Given the platform’s role in fostering meaningful connections, implementing transparency and accountability features can help create a safer and more enjoyable environment for all users.
Profile Engagement & Reliability Score:
Many dating and social networking apps, such as Scruff and OkCupid, provide users with insights into engagement patterns. Grindr could benefit from:
• A Responsiveness Score, indicating how often a user replies to messages within 24 hours. This feature would reduce frustration and improve matching efficiency.Verified & Trusted…

Unsend Location To All
Someone knocked on my door. Apparently I sent my location to him a while ago. I was terrified! Please, for our safety, give us users an easy way to unsend location from all chats. It's so easy to lock the Album. Location should likewise be easily lockable.

Block many profiles at once
An option to select all the profiles you dont like and block them at once. Instead of going one by one, that’s useless

Allow Reporting of Blocked User
Allowing reporting of users who have blocked you in all locations and areas. This is a feature in some locations but not all.
When someone blocks you faster than you can report them because they know what they are doing violates site rules is not helping to create a better and safer site. Being able to report a user for violating site rules only allows the community to be safer. Unfortunately if they beat me to it and block me before I can report them community safety isn’t being achieved and the user continues to violate rule with someone else,…

Add option to opt in for anonymous notification of positive stds results
Enable anonymous notifications of positive stds results.
It could work like this, for example. Introduce an option to request to be notified if a given person reports a positive std result. This could be reinforced by asking the other person to agree (otherwise it could be technically possible for a person to continously monitor the std status of another person without them knowing, by regularly requesting notifications from only one person) . This permission could have a limited duration - perhaps chosen by both. In case of a positive result, the person could choose report it to grindr which would…

Improve the hide feature
The idea of the "Hide" feature is interesting, in my opinion it prevents the possibility of blocking people without reason. However, it should be improved, in fact to get the "block" back it is sufficient to put the user in the favorites, or write a simple "hi". To make the hide truly effective there should be an interaction between people (e.g., at least 5 messages exchanged), so I would at least wait for the other person to respond, otherwise it is easy to get around the idea of the hide.

Move (useless) BOOST button or move the (unavoidable) RETRY button
Currently the RETRY network button is located over the BOOST button.
RETRY useful & need to use occasionally,, (doesn't accomplish anything 95% of time). RETRY also automatically disappears at any time.
BOOST is only used by one or two people. The button and associated paid 'feature' is extremely unpopular /hated (as evidenced in this forum).
When trying to touch the RETRY button, the button can simply vanish during the process leaving and accidental click on the BOOST button. It is possible for Grindr to measure the average time between the RETRY button appearing and your response time to effectively predict…

Verify
In other apps you can click on "I know this person in reality" To verify users after you meet them. If a certain amount of users have verified one account this account can be shown as safe, the profile corresponds to the person. By implementing this the app will gain security, transparency and accuracy facilitating a better people behavior and mitigate the fake profiles.

I Would Like You to Verify Profiles
There are many fake profiles with bad intentions in the area where I live. Additionally, there is a lot of identity theft. Just as some applications verify users through facial recognition with the camera, like certain social media platforms do, it would be beneficial to have a badge for verified profiles. This way, people could feel more confident when communicating with verified accounts.

Verification Badges
Please add the option to allow users to go through a Verification process and add a “Verified” badge to their profile to confirm we are communication with a real person and not someone that is attempting to catfish. Competitors like Tinder have had this feature for years, Grindr really needs this!

Stop link messages
I’m getting messages from people 1000’s of miles away with links. I never click them but block them. It’s getting very regular now.

Lots of random pictures to links, I block them straight away. I don’t know if they are scams or what?
Preview new messages and option to block. I’m not sure if when you actually open the persons message it does something or by clicking the link. They are obviously being paid if someone clicks the link.

People not showing up - Reliabilty Score
I would like the opportunity to sign up for an optional reliability score.
It could work as follows:
Create a button in chat by pressing + that says “agreed to meet”. It should then send a message to the other user that says “agree to meet?. To confirm they are both in agreement.
When Grindr detects both users within a few feet, a pop up could appear that says “it’s looks like you have connected?”
If both parties agree, it will give each a point for reliability.There could also be several additional options…from chat hitting the + button gives…
