A bit if an unusual one. With PrEP now widely available in many places, I've noticed a lot of people picking up STIs due to more unprotected sex. It would be great if people who tested positive to these would communicate with at-risk sexual contacts, but the reality is many don't do it out of shame and the outbreak grows. How I was thinking it could work is allowing you to either save a list of sexual contacts in the app or retrospectively select them from your inbox list, and then if you do test positive for a disease, send some kind of standard or personalised message to them all anonymously (or with the option of identifying yourself) that someone has tested positive for an STI encouraging them to get tested. Maybe allow them to include the disease in the message to allow treatment to be given immediately if needed. I mean there's also the option of adding covid in this day and age too. I work as a doctor and am a Grindr-user; I have seen an explosion of syphilis and gonorrhoea cases in particular and these can be very dangerous STIs if not treated. It would be great if Grindr could someone have an automatic contact-tracing system embedded that could help bring down the rates of these diseases. Perhaps it could be an opt-out system if there's concerns.
