I have tried so hard to just have a shirtless shot showing my body with surfie board shorts on and one from the waist up and they keep deleting me and yet my friends allowed this is discrimination lol.

I don’t want to sound like an annoying booster for the Android based phones, but, this sort of thing can’t happen in an open market device.

Android users can use “Encountr” and not have censorship. And if the people running it, decided to, anyone else could write an app that is XXX rated if they wanted. It doesn’t have to go through Google, or a carrier and therefore, they don’t have to answer shareholders about adult content.

Apple is repeating it’s tried and true formula of coming up with great ideas and then stunting it with heavy handed restriction. (like only being able to use ATT without “breaking” your phone)

A sign that Apple is scared now is their frivolous lawsuit against HTC. Who make some of the Android based phones.

I run a porn company and we are thinking of hiring a programmer to write us some hardcore sex apps.

Guys, it’s all over. Apple shit-canned Grindr at midnight Pacific time today for violating its “decency” policy. It has been erased from their app store.

This app sucks!

They banned me once for posting a topless (belly button-up) pic! I mean it literally is cropped from my belly button to my face. Then they keep deleting my pic where am wearing a black (not even bulgy or see thru) underwear while wearing a full t shirt . They said it didnot comply with their policy.

But I have been browsing and seen some way more obsene pictures including a neck down shot of a guy with a starfish where his privates are.

Emailed them about it and they did not reply!

Just waitin for the next better app to come up cuz this one sucks….plus it crashes all the time and ur previous convo disappears!

1/10 is my rating for this piece of junky app

Android has GPS based hook up apps without this kind of stupidity. (Encountr is the first one I’ve tried) This is yet another reason why iPhone’s days are numbered.
You don’t have to install apps through Google’s Market. You can get them from anywhere because it’s open source. A programmer could write a hardcore version where you could put up anything you can on any gay hookup website.

[...] would maybe understand this if I tried to post a profile on eHarmony or something, but a family friendly gay hook-up app? This is shocking to me. Maybe they’re just trying to start a war with me because the review [...]
