ADWEEK - Grindr, the dating app for LGBTQ+ individuals, is expanding beyond hookups to emphasize community and diverse connections. During the US Open, it introduced a tennis-themed notification sound to engage users, highlighting the sport's popularity in the gay community. Grindr aims to redefine its image by promoting its use for friendships, travel tips, and community building, not just casual dating. With its global "gayborhood" concept, the platform is also addressing safety concerns, especially in countries where homosexuality is criminalized, while continuing to incorporate humor and sexuality in its brand identity.
