So here's my honest take on Grindr. I've tested a bunch of dating apps and this one's pretty good for the LGBTQ crowd. The location-based features work well and it's easy to chat with people nearby. Doesn't have as many bells and whistles as some other apps, but it gets the job done. The free version is solid, but you'll probably want to pay for the premium if you're a heavy user.

Description

Been using Grindr – Gay Dating & Chat for a couple months now. It’s basically a dating and social app for LGBTQ folks. Pretty solid if you’re into that kinda thing.

Here’s what you do: you create a profile and start chatting with people nearby. And there’s also features to find local events and get recommendations from other users. Took me a while to figure some of it out but it’s actually pretty useful.

Look, if you’re looking to meet new gay, bi, or trans people, you’ll probably like this app. It’s not perfect – there’s some annoying ads if you don’t pay – but overall it does the job. Worth checking out if you’re in the community.

The frequency of ads is ridiculous but the ads are about the only thing that work consistently with this app for a long time. Okay, so pay for the ad-free...
