Blendr
The application combines GPS location sensing with a social networking framework, to provide users with the opportunity to meet people who are near to each other.[6] Users provide a photograph and basic information about their interests (though they are not required to give out their actual name or other personal details), and then are able to browse other people who are nearby to their present location.[7] Simkhai specifically designed Blendr to be less focused on casual sexual encounters than Grindr, intending it to be a tool for meeting new people who share common interests from business to hobbies and relationships of all types.[2] The company has strict rules forbidding the use of nudity, pictures or written descriptions of sexual acts, and racist statements or other hate speech.[9] Blendr released a statement that the service would cease activity in all territories worldwide on 31 October 2022, and all user data would be deleted by 30 November 2022.
