"gaydar" app?

My gay guy friend has an app on his Hero where gay/bi guys post their profile & their location automatically updates w/ gps. For example, my friend does a search according the certain filters he sets. Say he wants to do a search for gay men 25-35 who are up to 10 miles away. He does the search, & then a bunch of thumbnail profiles appear w/ the pic, screenname, age, & location of everyone who fits his search.

I think that's pretty dang rad! I'd love to have an app like that. Like, if I'm out @ a busy shopping center I could do a search & find a cute chick to treat to coffee.

I've also heard of "gaydar" apps that make the phone vibrate when you're w/in a certain distance of someone else who is logged into the app. That would be fun, too :).

UMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM???????????????:eek:

You know, not everyone will have the same ideas regarding useful apps. What's useful to some won't be useful to others. Do you know what I do when I see threads about applications that I'm not interested in? I skip over those threads. An lgbt dating app doesn't interest you? That's fine, move on.

Thanks!! Yep, this is along the lines of what I was looking for...only I'd like the women version :). I wonder if one is in the works.

Hope you find a partner out there perfect for you!

Amen sister! I deleted the less than friendly posts.


As far as I know there is NOT a female version of Grindr, but there should be. Perhaps you should reach out to the developer and express your interest and he/she (probably he) could adapt/make one. :) Also check out our social area there are several lgbt friendly threads. :)

^^^^^
This really clears up something for me that I've been wondering for some time now. Thanks.

Grindr for BlackBerry will hopefully be out of beta soon. I'm one of the testers and it's pretty rough. As far as a female version goes, the creator said he was working on a lesbian and straight version as well.

That is why I opened this post, thought it would be something related to the office. Lol

Awww thanks everyone for your KIND responses! Especially you, pkcable :). I hadn't thought of reaching out to the developer of grindr, but it's great that JonathanBrass says there's a lesbian one in the works! I hope it really takes off once available.

And, I love the social forums here. I've actually started/posted to a few lgbt threads & met some pretty rad people :).
