1. • Rather unsafe

     • Sadly, like many other dating applications, such as Tinder, Bumble, and OkCupid, Grindr is rather unsafe. That’s because such platforms are a goldmine for hackers, scammers, and online predators looking to compromise users’ security, steal their personal information, or blackmail them.

   Is Grindr safe?

   • And while many great things – and people – come from the app (pardon the pun), Grindr isn’t always a safe space for everyone. It notoriously exists as a hotbed for discrimination, whether against different ethnic groups, body types and identities, or people living with HIV.

   Should I use Grindr?

   • Don’t promote stereotypes or stigma. Be an educated advocate. The app can get you caught up so delete and take breaks. Grindr was better in the beginning and it’s pretty much the same in cities I’ve visited across the world: There’s someone like you and I in a city somewhere else.

   What should I do if I'm not using Grindr?

   • However you use Grindr and other hookup apps, remember to look after yourself. That means being aware of physical dangers and trusting your gut if something feels strange. It also means looking out for your mental health. If you find you're not enjoying Grindr or your mood isn't great, try taking some time off the app and see if that helps.

   Is Grindr a good app?

   • Be an educated advocate. The app can get you caught up so delete and take breaks. Grindr was better in the beginning and it’s pretty much the same in cities I’ve visited across the world: There’s someone like you and I in a city somewhere else. Enjoy! Men are assholes. Don't take it personally. And... try not to be one.

   Is Grindr a scam?

   • Scammers know they will be banned on Grindr quickly, so they often try to move to email, text, etc. right away. If someone asks you to give them a verification code, or you receive a verification code via text or email that you did not request, you should assume it’s a scam. Do not give these codes to anyone. Do your own research.

   How do I avoid a Grindr scam?

   • Tips: Do not trust anyone who tries to get you to follow links or go to another site quickly. Some scammers will try to trick you into allowing them to use your phone number to register or SMS verify accounts on Grindr or other apps. They will ask for your phone number and then claim they sent you a code.

   Don't feel bad about blocking someone if you feel uncomfortable. If someone asks for nudes, my rule is always "give one to get one". Blank profiles are 10% hit and 90% miss. Don't just agree off a d*** pic; at least request body pics too, if not face pics.

   We’ve all opened Grindr in… questionable states, but the more sober you are the easier it is to assess any dangers. Alcohol, GHB, ketamine, opioids and benzos (like Xanax) are all downers. This means they can make you sleepy and less able to consent.
