1. Having to weed out the scammers/impersonators. Have Verified Identity tags on profiles and video chat capability.

   As a PAYING member of this type of social app, it's my strongly held belief that it is that corporation's DUTY to ensure that the person I'm having a typed convo with, is VERIFIABLY the same person portrayed in the profile. You can do that proactively by providing an avenue for verifying identity like many other sites do, using 3rd party ID verification providers. Secondly, this and other sites aggressively warn users not to leave the app or site to talk because "that's a warning sign of scammers." Ok, then give me the tools to proactively verify identity without having to leave the app. You can do that by providing a video chat mechanism. It can be a time-limited micro-chat that both parties can turn on AS THEY ARE ACTIVELY CHATTING, so they can visually match the profile pic with the person typing on the other side of the convo.
   I'm on a serious search for a relationship, and am currently a paying member of 7 different sites and because of the sickening amount of fake profiles ive seen, I pay for 3rd party ID verification services that are time consuming and costly. How AWESOME would it be if I was able to do that without having to leave the app.

3. Ban Appeals

   There needs to be a better way about appealing bans. You should tell the user why they have been banned.

   I’ve just received a ban and I’ve been on gridnr for over 10 years on/off and I’ve never done anything. I’ve contacted Grindr regarding the only very small possibility (created another account) and I’ve received no response. That was two days ago. There needs to be a better way of contacting Grindr directly?

6. Better reporting Setup

   There needs to be more options for reporting suspicious activity and ideally more characters. I prefer to use whole words and punctuation to be as clear as I can and not send a message that looks like spilled alphabet soup — lifbej leibfe geuebt htge

   I am writting this suggestion because I messaged a profile. I never received a message back from that profile and after a few days of seeing it in my near by and knowing they were not interested I blocked it. I then received a messaging saying hello from a profile with the same picture and user name 2 days later. I responded with a messaging saying hi. The profile viewed my profile twice and yet did not respond or show up in the near by list. The profile then sent me a message saying hi. Within a half hour of receiving that message which seems unnecessary considering their first message was hello, I went to their profile and it says they were last on a day ago. Even if they have the setting set to do not show in the nearby, the profile should still display the last login time shouldn’t it?

   With the character limit I couldn’t explain all that in the report of impersonation. I would love to report the profile as a robot because the first message said hello and the second said hi that feels like something a program would do because my response to the first hello was hi. A person could receive a hi message and respond with something that has more depth considering they already said hi, a computer program might not. I didn’t put more to my message because the message seems to be coming from a profile I messaged and was ignored and then I blocked. Which means they would have deleted their account recreated it looking the same and then messaged me. Or it’s a robot or computer program that deletes or creates multiple accounts with the same profile picture and name and info. Or there is some sort of hole in the system. However there is no way for me to make these types of reports or even include it in the report if suspected impersonation because of the 250 character limit.

9. Feedback

   Just saying thanks to the development team and whoever is writing the product roadmaps for all the updates this past year, Grindr feels safer, more stable and loads with no noticable latency pretty much all the time ... And love that the library bloat appears to be gone. Great job.

13. Reporting a Profile for vulnerable person

    A young guy I have been talking with seems to be having a difficult time exploring his sexuality to his family believes and the expectations the family have. He has expressed that he wishes to kill himself and I have told him to reach out to Grindr but to my surprise there is no obvious or clear menu option for either someone struggling to send Grindr a message for help or in this case for me to report a concern so a professional can reach out confidentially through Gtindr to start a line of clear communication to give the person finding it hard to cope reassurance but to help guide them to get the help they require. I think that all sites like grindr should have something like this, you guys are the first port of call for most people exploring their non heterosexual side which can be daunting and well isolating but all there is through reporting is for people with anti-social behaviour, which is fine but there needs to be positive help or well-being concern options.

14. Hide users DP from the grid.

    Sometimes we want to open in public transportation or at work just to check messages and some DPs are very naughty, like huge bulges and etc. Would be nice to have an option like we have for password, the little eye we click on top to hide all images from the app.

15. Photo Verification

    So many scammers nowadays, they will started with a ‘hi’ and ask our preferences (boyfriend or friend), then they will tell that it’s not convenient to talk through this app. I don’t know what they are up to, but it’s getting annoying and very exhausting. I am trying to find the real ones here, not a scammers. Please do some kind of verification to prove that the owner of the account is the real person and not a scammer, maybe you can start with a ‘photo verification’, to check if the person is real or not. Or maybe any other verification would do. Thanks and have a great day team!

17. We should be able to filter who can see us

    Something as simple as setting the age range of who can see us could help prevent all the awkward situations where young users get inappropriate photos from users triple their age

18. Age restriction for chat

    There should be an option to set a limit how old someone can be to be able to send you a message. As a younger guy that isn't into older guys it's very annoying to get messages all the time from guy who are 40+.

19. Location

    Allow not displaying (exact) distance for everyone, but do NOT allow mock locations! While this option would benefit some. it would make using the app more DANGEROUS by allowing cheaters, fake accounts, gaybashers...
    If a real distance or location cannot be used, give the option from a locationlist through Grindr which CLEARLY marks that it is a 'FAKE' location!
    Protect your users.

20. Valid Driver's license or id

    In order to use this app, a valid driver's license or ID should be required, for anyone who is worried about their info being leaked, all that would need to be shown is you're name and date of birth, and when it expires. I'm sick of being contacted by minors, and having to report them and track down their parents to tell them that their CHILD is doing this shady ass shit.
    
    When you send in a picture of your ID or dl, you should have to take a picture of yourself with a randomly generated number you have to write down and hold up to verify it is you!!!! Let's get rid of all these shady mother f@ckers and catfish!!!
