DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME
Way too many ads, never-ending spam, and fake profiles! So ungodly expensive, and the “free” version only lets you see 3 people after 400 ads and blocks you from communicating! STAY AWAY FROM GRINDR! So many better other apps!!!!!
Bad
More trans and actual females than gay guys the site has gotten worse and worse. I’m glad I don’t pay for it no more.
Ads on Unlimited
If I pay for no ads, that means I want no ads— including those from Grindr. For anyone considering purchasing Unlimited, just know you’ll still be bombarded by popups to get you to buy Grindr’s branded Erectile Dysfunction meds. 🙄🙄 So annoying.
Layout
The more recent update and change of layout has put the right now feature in a position where you can press it by accident if not careful. The cynic of me says this is on purpose £££, or just a result of poor UAT
⭐ 1/5 — If I could give zero stars, I would.
My experience with Grindr’s customer support has been absolutely unacceptable. I have repeatedly reached out regarding an issue and have gone 26 days without receiving a response, despite following up multiple times.
Their standard explanation is that responses may be delayed due to a “high volume of requests,” but at some point, you have to wonder how much of that volume is created by people having to repeatedly submit requests or follow up because their original concerns are simply not being addressed.
I understand that delays happen, but 26 days without meaningful communication or even basic follow-up is not reasonable customer service. If a company is going to provide a support or appeals process, there should actually be someone available to respond within a reasonable amount of time.
What makes the experience even more frustrating is how quickly action can be taken against an account, while getting someone to review the situation, explain what happened, or respond to an appeal seems to take an unreasonable amount of time.
The lack of communication, transparency, and responsiveness has been incredibly disappointing. Thankfully, I do not pay for this service, because based on the customer support I have experienced, I certainly would not recommend paying for it.
If zero stars were an option, that would be my rating.

Too strict
Will ban you for damn near anything and then let other ppl do the same thing
Too Much Ads
We all know that apps developer want to get rich. Kindly reduce your ads in the apps. It make it sucks!
Can’t read
I can’t read any of my messages it keeps disappearing please fix
Banned
I have had my account banned for no apparent reason so I opened a new account on a new email and number and Phone and that was banned in less than two weeks and I have hardly spoken to anybody on this site. I rather suspect that somebody has a grudge against me and has made false reports against me so now I have lost all my contacts and I have to sit and play the waiting game until my appeals are reviewed. To my knowledge I have not broken any of the guidelines or rules and I have paid until March next year but I cannot access anything and I can’t even get a refund

buggy and slow
constantly running pop up ads every 30 seconds it feels like. I have to reboot the app every time I view a profile or message. Greedy af
Diabolical
I used to use the favourites to make sure fake profiles from miles away weren’t messaging me to try and steal pictures (a real issue with this app). It allowed me to see their distance in relation to other faved profiles which had a distance displayed. But with the latest version you can only fave two profiles unless you pay so I can’t see where profiles sit in the overall distance amongst other faved profiles. And Grindr is too expensive to pay for. So now it’s unsafe.
I get they want to make money, but they have all those ads. Making me unsafe is pure greed.

Not 5*
Clearly same fake reviews on here. Overpriced. Full of 'straights' ( as if don't have anywhere else to go) chasing trans... constantly blocking the same idiots over and over as account creations as simple as farting. Utter waste of memory on the phone.
Sign in
Not the best to sign in. Tried a ton of times, kept taking me to their reset password.. endless loop that didn’t go anywhere. Deleting!
Worst app imaginable, epitome of owner greed
The people who own the rights to this app are blatantly taking features away on a regular basis, even from those paying for their most premium subscription. To be clear, all prices for all subscriptions to this app are exorbitant, but I have their unlimited subscription and even with that I suddenly I can no longer view my full chat history which now only goes back a few months, and the search feature for favorites notes was removed. For a service called “unlimited” it sure seems like they are adding more and more *LIMITS* by the day. They obviously do this because they are the most well-known app of their kind and people will use it anyway, but they should absolutely continue to be called out for it, or they’ll continue to take things away and keep charging the same price. Hopefully a competitor will eventually fix that. Their 4.5+ star rating in Apple is absurd and not at all deserved, most likely paid for or something along those lines because there’s no way the majority of this app’s users are actually satisfied with it. As a result, I don’t expect the legitimate negative reviews to make any difference as they won’t outweigh the contrived ones, but still, any users reading this should give it the poor rating it deserves so they either go out of business or are forced to bring back the features they know users want but they get away with removing anyway because users don’t voice their extreme dissatisfaction. They deserve zero stars until they stop exhibiting this blatant greed and disregard for people paying way too much money for their terrible app just because of the name recognition.
Updated to add: when using the explore feature, they put popular users at the top of the grid, so there’s no reliable way to sort those by distance. Also their “for you” section removes people from the regular grid so you don’t see them sorted by distance with other users, and also cannot tap them. All of these features should have an option to disable, but of course they don’t because once again, the developers are garbage people exploiting the fact that their users have limited competitor options.

Opening my browser w/o consent
While scrolling the profiles the app will open my browser and redirect to a website. It’s been like this for a long time and it’s very annoying
Pay Wall
Too many ads and bots. Everything is behind a paywall.
Unusable
No-one minds adverts... but the its the sheer length of them on Grindr that makes it so awful. They bring the app crashing to a stop for minutes at a time. It's embarrassingly slow.
Don’t let the title fool you
“Gay” Dating & Chat should be changed to “LGBTQ” Dating & Chat. The grid is full of Trans/she/her/they/them and the people seeking the above, it’s hard to find the “gay” ones anymore. Be prepared for doods with boobs and eye shadow and long nails, cause there seems to be a plethora of them no mater where you go…

AD free is BS
I pay $25 per month for ad free but now I have 100 ads a day for edge. Ad free is a scam and what a joke to pay this much and still have ads
