User Verifications
There was an old site years ago that would assign each profile an Internal Number. They requested you to take a selfie with that number written on a sheet of paper. They then verified the user to that account. These catfish profiles are OUT OF HAND!

Option to disable album sharing for all users at once
I have shared my album to so many users and if I want to stop sharing I have to click on each user's checkbox individually and then click on Stop Sharing.
Please have option to remove album sharing to all users at once.

Prevent screenshotting
I put my pics in an album for a reason. People are screenshotting my private pics by liking the photo, which shows up in the chat log then being able to open up the pic and screenshotting it. Fix this shit Grindr, it's not good enough.

Stop app cloning! Stop mock location and implement unlimited blocks
Disgrace of an app.
Firstly. Lets talk about everything the app allows, and the complete disregard to users safety!
All this fake location shenanigans! Firstly. Please don’t pretend you don’t allow it. You disallow it for freshly made profiles, then after a week you are good to go! And allow people to move their profiles at will.
Secondly! You again “Allow” the use of sandboxing! Where users are making multiple clones of the Grindr app itself, that not only allows users to make an unlimited amount of profiles (clones) that can run simultaneously and at any location they choose, but…

picture appears in chat outside of album
i don’t think if i show someone my private album when they hit the like button they shouldnt appear anywhere other than in my private album. it’s private for a reason then people can snap pics and such of the pictures and it’s like your allowing them to save your private pictures ! it pisses me off every time you show someone your private pics then they go thru n like them all and they’re saved
all up on their chat log for them to do with as they please ! it totally defeats the purpose of a private album7 votes -
Any account that reaches an account with no response or auto block should be monitored for community violations or potential harassment spam
Community standards safety
Warnings should be issued so they stop and people don’t feel bad about not interested forced replies or actual spam …. Comments review for problems to accurately catch the spam or fraud account. A hello twice is no harrasment a hello the next day. muktiple request is likely spam or a pitential warn or removal see history safety bot

Make text entry towards 'Never accept NSFW' available only after agreeing to a notice.
Posting unsolicited nudes after agreeing should be a bannable offense.

Option to automatically blur NSFW photos
It has become impossible to safely open Grindr in public, greatly reducing my use of the app because I simply cannot safely open it without people thinking I’m looking at NSFW images in public. Grindr should allow me to blur these images in profiles and maybe messages, until clicked.

Option to block faceless profiles from messaging
We’re already able to filter out profiles without profile pictures as is, so why not let us disallow faceless profiles from messaging us in the first place?

Block IP addresses
You should be able to block IP addresses to avoid them being able to creat new profiles. I literally rejected a guy & he created 4 new profiles just to troll me since I rejected him. HOW IS THIS FAIR OR SAFE. I reported the profiles & blocked them & nothing. Just for them to create a new one. If you block the IP address they won't be able to create a new profile no matter what no through cell phone or laptop at least not in that location or devices which would make me feel safer. also make it…

During holidays sell GRindr yearly gift certificates, this way it does not interfere with your current account and the gifted recipient can use it to purchase Grindr membership. Everyone is happy and it’s a very good source of additional income for the Grindr franchise.

Blocking
One touch blocking. Just how users can currently Force Touch to favourite, chat, or report directly from the grid. Enabling one touch blocking would be helpful and efficient, and avoid sending a “who viewed you” notification to the profile which could allow people to see that you’ve blocked them in real-time

Blocking users and any accounts they may create
I think it is in the interest of the grindr community's safety to create a "Block user and any accounts they may create" feature. I've been harassed by several people who simply make a new blank account and then approach me in app. They make new accounts almost weekly and their undesired contact has persisted for going on two years. I block them every single time. Once he even catfished me with other people's pictures. I highly recommend a feature that links blocks accounts by registration information so that undesired contact is limited.

I think to colour the grindr grid from the dull greyish silhouette man (no profile picture), Grindr should at least encourage any picture
Rather than having these scattered grim darkish coloured silhouette profiles, albeit discreet as they might be and for any reason sensitive or not. The grid would look far better with any photo as a profile picture be it you face, body (within guidelines), or perhaps favorite holiday destination, food, gym pose, symbol, tattoo or car. NO darkness - all colour : ))

Restrictions on what I write in my profile
The ‘no old’ restriction on my profile is very bizarre. In my profile I state “around my age or older”, which is now getting flagged as me writing ‘no old’. I’m 28 years old, it would be extremely inappropriate and predatory of me to go after someone who’s 18 or 19, which is why I try to filter out teens who message me on this app with that sentence. People are allowed to have preferences of who they interact with based on age? I just find it bizarre that Grindr, in trying to be more age inclusive, is kind of…

Mandatory Verified Age/Face
The fact that there are so many blank profiles or profiles held by much older men targeting younger men is unsafe. This leads to predatory behavior, and makes it easy for bots to invade the app. There should be some kind of way to make it mandatory to send a photo ID to verify the person is real.
