Do not get this app if you’re closeted
This app is so glitchy even if you pay for it. I am not out and live in a small town. I pay $40 a month for Unlimited so I am able to use the “Incognito” mode and not be seen. Two days ago the app stopped letting me use any of the Unlimited functions so everyone was able to see my profile when I logged on. By the time I deleted my picture it was too late. The grindr developers need to fix this. It is not only unacceptable but it’s dangerous. Grindr is essentially outing people with these glitches. The developers need to ensure that this doesn’t happen anymore. It’s an unacceptable glitch when they’re charging almost $500 a year to use the additional features. The other thing that will happen even if you pay is Grindr STILL begging you for money. $500 a year is not enough. They keep begging you for $8 for a “boost”. This app is only successful because there is no competitor. They’re greedy. They don’t care if they out you or if you already pay $500 a year for the app. They only care about more money. No matter how much they charge for it they are still going to want more money for a “boost” or some other gimmick. Absolute garbage.Show lessGpnuser
Developer Response
Hi there, We're so sorry that you weren't able to stay in Incognito mode! Please reach out to us right away at hello@grindr.com so we can look into this and assist.Banned for no reason
I’ve always heard of this app on one big platform just as TikTok never considered getting it cause it didn’t seem real and every video I came across seem like bait
This year I’ve lost hope in finding something real but I went through many apps and I was like hey why not install this one so I did. It had me at first make account post a couple pictures boom paid features but I ain’t let that get in the way I still proceeded to use the free side of the app to find people the texts were flowing through I responded to some and others I ain’t feel as comfortable responding to cause off the rip “ let’s meet” all this big sexual gestures but no greetings such as “hey” “how are you” one day outta this week I go into the app and it’s say I’ve been banned for violating the community guidelines which I am so confused to why I did I even searched multiple videos to see what could I’ve possibly do no harassment no slander no discrimination what so ever everyone that swiped up I either responded or kept it pushing if I didn’t feel right bout how the chat started
I’ve tried to make a new account day by day and it’s banning them before I could even put a picture up and I’m confused as to what could l possibly cause all of this cause at this point I’m over the whole online find a mate,friend ,lover stuff cause this experience is by far the worse and I refuse to ever experience this againShow lessuserrrrrr356
On its way out it seems
All good things must end I suppose but Grindr didn’t *have* to end like this. The free version of this app is so limited and full of invasive ads that it is actually difficult to use it and when I have only the free version I use the app much less frequently. Well who cares I’m not paying for it the developers surely assume. Wrong, I ordinarily pay for a unlimited subscription but I am reconsidering that now because it feels like there are just less fresh faces on the app now and discrete dl people who won’t pay for a subscription because it’s so unpleasant to use. It’s just the same old people who pay for a subscription use the app 24/7 and who I’ve already met or I am not interested in. It seems like they know that their business doesn’t profit in the short term from people finding other people they like because then those two customers may not need to use the app anymore or use it less. Sounds profitable but they failed to realize that by doing the wrong thing and steering short term profits in terms of not focusing on customers getting what they want and instead being paying customers month after month, that they would ultimately destroy the who thing when the ripple effect of their greed slowly alienated the occasional or infrequent users. The same users are most sensitive to the poor user experience they thoughtlessly deliver. On top of that it’s hard to know the app is secure they don’t even have two factor authentication.Show lessD5cad5ca
Great gay social networking app!
I love your app and have been using it since the first day you launched your product. It has great features and I have made a lot friends using it. Mostly hook ups but some of them turned into long life friends! Your recent update made your app less desirable to use. Limiting only to 9 profile on the grid instead of maybe were 30 profiles or so. Also limiting the view me features as in undiscoverable, or can’t find your location when I am found, and also the favorites cannot be viewed now. Which makes it useless if I add more favorite profiles to my free account. Use red who have been using this app since the beginning what made your app successful, and now we are rejects… very limited. Also you make it impossible to subscribe, it’s very expensive. When I subscribed for a year I thought I was getting all those great features you advertise, but when paying I got limited features and not full features unless I pay double the price for your subscription. It’s very disappointing.Show lessMega40
Best App to Meet Transgender Women
I am a transgender gender woman and Grindr has helped me link up with like-minded people more so than any other dating app has. And ive tried them all. I also like all of the safe guards in place to help keep me safe from being harassed. There’s a diverse group of all different kinds of people so there’s definitely a good chance that theres someone for almost everyone. I love the live-video chat feature which is available right there in the app to verify what each other looks like, it’s impossible to get cat-fished that way , i hate being cat-fished! The premium subscription options are affordable and offer a great value for the price. With the “Extra” subscription the grid of users is greatly increased beyond the cap of 600 people and you get the option to be incognito. The “unlimited” subscription is pretty much Unlimited in terms of the distance the app will display users. My favorite unlimited feature is the ability to un-send messages and to be able to see if the message u sent has been read by the recipient.
All in all i love Grindr, I used it every day for chatting, exchanging pics and videos with people im interested in meeting and then actually setting up a meet.Show lessValley TS Kelly
Great app but could use improvements
The app functions well. It definitely doesn’t have as many bugs and crashes as it once used to. They have implemented changes to filters which is nice, but I also do have some suggestions I’d like to see included in the app. I do like how no one can screenshot the albums in your photo, but I think this should just be a general inclusivity for any photo that is sent out. That way we can prevent catfish from creating fake profiles. I would also like to see the race category put back into place. I personally don’t think there’s anything wrong with having a stronger preference towards a certain demographic. I understand that they are trying to be inclusive but people are attracted to what they are attracted to. Just let it be. I’m Hispanic and I’ve met plenty of people who say they aren’t interested in Latinos. They say we have to much of an attitude. It’s a generalization, but I’m okay with it because that person is clearly not meant for me, and I don’t want them apart of my life. I say allow people to select what they like and allow others to judge them for their character. After all, we are all just trying to find the perfect match.Show less951 Latin
Waste of time
Mostly grown scary predatory men trying to get with you or if not that other people are just looking for sex which is fine if that’s what you’re looking for. But one day I wake up and am told I violated guidelines which they never specified which guidelines I “broke” in the first place which is weird how are you going to ban someone and not tell them the reason as to why they were banned I’ve had the app for some time and would always delete it from time to time and I went though the guidelines and none of the rules that they claimed I broke I actually broke, I do have two accounts but it was never to harass someone it’s because I forgot the login to my other account so I made a new one they’re also very unprofessional when I comes to the appeals and generally made me feel like ab horrible person when in actuality I did nothing wrong, skip out on this app and get tinder if you want a real relationship that’s not focused around hookup cultureShow lessseancody.com
Give us new features
The app use to be better they took away some features . We use to be able to select the exact age we were looking for . But now there’s like a 4 year gap in between ages for example I can’t just be looking for 25 year old to make my search easier I can only do 25-29 , and there’s also no race filter feature and no it’s not racist to be looking for a specific race , that’s just someone’s preference , but there’s a weight filter, height filter, body type filter , lowkey the unnecessary filters I feel like race is someone biggest preference more then someone’s height lol. I can’t even have multiple albums anymore Atleast not for free ..one for my 🍆 pics and one for my 🍑 pics and one for my face pics they use to have this option free . The app literally downgraded it self by taking away some features and making you pay for some and the fact that bottoms can show their whole nude 🍑 on their profile pics but tops can’t even use photos of their print in their shorts is very bias . Please do better lol .Show lessThepersonwholeftareview
New update fixes NOTHING ever
Each update gets worse and worse and fixes nothing at all you need new it or something wow and you charge people for what an app that dont work
UPDATED FIXED NOTHING! You know it’s funny how people choose who to respond to you and who don’t respond to but it’s funny how the app likes to play the game when you send a message to people where it chooses to deliver some people, messages and others get stuck in sent it’s very funny how you can send a message to somebody and get stuck in sent and then send a message to somebody else immediately get delivered and then another message back to send sent sent, etc. so why does the app make this decision if I send a message to somebody, why does it not go through this has been going on for way too much time and this needs to be addressed immediately the option to send a message to everybody and get delivered regardless of who it sent to you. Also, you need to address the fake accounts and people that immediately delete and keep constantly reinstalling apps force them to sign up for an account and sign in.Show lessIdoReviews!
Dev team needs work
A lot of people use this app but it's pretty terrible - the dev team seems to completely ignore requests from users on the most basic functionality. It's a huge opportunity for a better app to come along - users are literally canceling their paid membership because the team refuses to allow (for example) blocking or even filtering of cis and trans women. I'm not sure why they're so unresponsive – they're literally turning away revenue. Prices are also pretty crazy - even for basic functionality. The bottom line is that no one wants an LGBTQ+ dating app - each acronym is its own community when it comes to dating. If you’re a slave to being politically correct, and you want to force them all to be on the same screen together, you have to be able to filter other acronyms out – or the whole app is pointless. You don’t open a watch store and claim to be the number one watch store, and then decide to also sell pickles and bags of wheat and hammers. How do the devs not understand this concept?Show lessPaul Horne
