Detailed Profiles

Go beyond just a photo. Grindr profiles allow you to share your interests, relationship status, and what you are looking for. Fill out your bio to attract guys who are interested in the real you.

Chemistry is hard to gauge over text. Use our in-app video chat feature to have a virtual date before meeting in person. It's a great way to verify your match and see if there's a spark.

Long-distance is tough. Grindr shows you the guys closest to you first, making it easy to arrange a spontaneous meet-up or a planned date at a local spot.

Smart Dating Tips for Success

How to make the most of your Grindr dating experience.

Be Clear About Your Intentions
If you are looking for a relationship, say so! Use the "Looking For" field to select "Dates" or "Relationship." Being honest upfront saves everyone time and attracts guys with similar goals.
Choose the Right Photos
Your main photo is your first impression. Choose a clear, friendly face pic. Avoid sunglasses or group shots as your main image. Add a mix of photos that show your hobbies and personality.
Start the Conversation
Don't wait for him to message you. If you see someone you like, send a friendly "Hi" or comment on something in his profile. Confidence is attractive!

Love Found on Grindr

Real couples who met on the app.

"I was skeptical about finding a serious boyfriend on Grindr, but then I messaged David. We lived 2 miles apart but had never met. We met for drinks that night and have been inseparable for 3 years. We're getting married next fall!"

- Mark & David, New York

"I used Grindr while traveling in Spain and matched with a local guy. What started as a holiday romance turned into a long-distance relationship. I eventually moved to Barcelona to be with him. Grindr changed my life."

- Leo, Barcelona

"We both had 'Dates' selected in our profiles. We chatted for a week before meeting up for a hike. It was the most relaxed first date I've ever had. We just celebrated our first anniversary."

- Sam, Denver
