Grindr offline status feature lets you appear offline to friends, or appear online to friends you want to chat with. To activate offline status login into your Grindr account and click on the settings. Then click the gear icon to expand Options and select Appear Offline.
Grindr offline is the same as ghost mode which disables the chat from showing that the user is online and removes the time stamp that displays when the user was last logged in.
There is also an “Unseen Message” feature that enables the user to still send messages and get replies without the recipient seeing that they have been read.
The Grindr offline helps when you don’t want or don’t have time to engage with friends. If you want to log into Grindr without your friends knowing you’re online, you can easily turn off your “active status” so you appear offline.
You can turn off your active status on the Grindr website, and Grindr mobile app. When your active status is turned off, you will appear offline even when you’re online. You can also choose to appear offline only for certain people that you select.
How to Go Offline on Grindr
1. Open Grindr.
2. Click the profile icon.
3. Go to Settings.
4. Scroll down and tap into Recently Active Status.
5. Set the “Show Activity Status” toggle to OFF.
Can my friends see my active status if I ignore them on Grindr? There is no connection between ignoring the message and the online or offline status of Grindr. So, if you ignore someone on Grindr they can still see you as active if you are active.
How to See Who Blocked You on Grindr
You can switch off your Active Status completely on the browser version of Grindr by selecting Turn off Active Status. When it comes to the mobile app, you only have the option to turn your Active Status on or off—there are no edited or custom options available.
How Can You Tell if Someone is Offline on Grindr
You can see someone is active on Grindr by checking the green dot on their profile, next to which “recently active” is written – it means they’ve been active in the last 24 hours; which does not mean that they’re online at the moment.
You can also tell if someone is on Grindr by entering their name in the search bar in the app, and clicking on them. One clear sign that he’s still using Grindr is if he’s updated his profile photo and information.
Another way to find out if someone is using Grindr is to open Grindr on your phone or computer – you won’t need to log in. Enter either the person’s phone number or email into the “forgotten password” section. There should then be a confirmation of whether this is an existing account on their records or not.
Does Logging Out of Grindr Take You Offline
Yes, once you sign out of your Grindr account or you have an inactive internet connection you’ll go offline. Your match will see the active status on their contact list, and when you leave the app, the green dot will get replaced with a last-seen message next to your username.
When Does Grindr Show You as Offline
Grindr shows you as offline when you spend 60 minutes without activity. The green dot on your profile will disappear. Your contact will see “online minutes/hours/days ago”. Grindr gives you the option of going fully offline by logging out of the chat. You can also turn off your active status from the Invisible mode settings.
How to Hide Yourself on Grindr
Sign in to your account and go to your profile’s settings and turn off the “Show me in Explore Searches” option. Once you do this, your Grindr profile would not be displayed on the matches suggestion list.
Grindr Incognito Mode
Incognito Mode is a Grindr feature that gives you a more streamlined (and exclusive) Grindr experience. This feature initially hides your profile from others on the app so no one will see it unless you swipe right on them.
Your profile appears offline to people you tap or message. No one will see if you view their profile, nor will you show up on Viewed Me lists.
The Incognito Mode hides your profile from potential matches for hours, a week, or indefinitely. You can even set an away status so that your existing connections are able to see you’re taking a break.
Grindr Offline After 2 or 30 Days
This simply means that your account has been offline for the past 2 or 30 days. This will be shown to your matches.
For example: If someone closes the app and does not sign out or delete their account, then the “Days Ago” number obviously increases with each day.
You can also set the number of days you have been offline when you don’t want your matches to know when you’re active on the app.
