Gay dating apps blackberry

Welcome to Blendr, the straight dating app following in Grindr's footsteps

I was feeling lonely back in my hometown because most of my friends had started romantic relationships while I was abroad. We both decided to download Tinder and see what happened. Without the app we may have never met and embarked on this wild, wonderful journey. Thank you for bringing us and so many other couples together around the world. I will forever be grateful. Thanks to Tinder I have found the love of my life and we are to be married. After going on a few dates and having a few fun nights I came across Miranda. We are both Christians who fell madly in love.

It was 10 years ago, on the bus on my way to work, that I first saw a man using Grindr. I had heard friends describe a free iPhone app that could show you where the nearest gay guy was. And sat in front of me was an early adopter, tapping his way through a grid of topless torsos and replying to a flurry of messages. When Grindr launched in March , the iPhone was still in its infancy. Back then, the BlackBerry was king. Apple's app store was less than a year old and there was no Instagram or Snapchat.

Update 11 March : I appreciate the legacy of having used Grindr during my world travels, especially in my 20s and early 30s, but the era of Covid has made me reassess my relationship with the app. Although I have decided to retain this post on my site due to its popularity and the validity of the stories it conveys, I think I have passed the point in my life where Grindr is of use to me, as a traveler or otherwise. Getting Grindr onto your smartphone is easy, whether you use an Android or iPhone.

GRINDR: The Gay GPS

Though it's best known as the dating application of choice for legions of gay men, Grindr is wading into the political foray with a brand-new project just in time for the presidential election. Details of how "Grindr for Equality" will exactly operate were scarce, but the iPhone, iPod touch, iPad, Android and BlackBerry app will reportedly alert Minnesota-based users to their state's proposed constitutional ban on marriage equality while encouraging them to contact their local lawmakers. Officials also ask that individuals email them with suggestions on local issues, including a brief description of how the issue relaties to the LGBT community.
