I’ve been working on reverse-engineering Grindr and creating an open source client implementation for it since March.
When GrindrPlus closed, my project turned out to be its de-facto successor and immediatelly several thousands of people started following it. Now it has 70k+ downloads on Forgejo and the authorship is dedicated to public domain :)
- MIT licensed, no ads, no analytics, no trackers, no diagnostics, no statistics, no telemetry, only opt-in updates checking
- Signed releases, reproducible builds on all four platforms, full transparency
- And it’s now in Google Play (for the time being) and being reviewed for F-Droid!
Already applied for Apple developer enrollment and going to publish this to EU alt stores as well as in the TestFlight. Then a classic unsigned ipa and also going to attempt Apple AppStore just for completeness.
You need an existing Grindr account. Downloads: https://opengrind.org/download

Honey, it’s a gay hookup app. If you are a man looking for sex with a woman you are going to be disappointed.
Everyone needs love. I’m taken but I would be happy to be in a shared space. But I also understand the need for exclusivity.
