Why We Limit What Can Be Displayed In Your Public Profile

Grindr is a social networking app, and we want it to appeal to a wide range of users. Apple also limits what can be displayed in public profiles on their devices. For these and other reasons we limit what can be displayed in your public profile; this includes not only your picture, but also text. Please note: Forbidden words are not allowed even if they are masked or abbreviated.

All public profiles have to be G Rated. You can send any legal picture and any legal text in your chats with another user.

Please refer to the below links for more information (all open in a new window):

We strongly recommend all users review our Profile Guidelines and our Terms Of Service:
Profile Guidelines: Grindr.com/Guidelines

Terms Of Service: Grindr.com/app/tos

If your profile is banned or censored, the only way to get it unbanned is to contact the Review Team:
