When you delete Grindr, your profile and all data related to it will be removed from the application [2]. This means that once you have started the deletion process for your account, neither you nor any other user of the Grindr application will be able to view your profile [2].

Here's what happens when you delete your Grindr account:

1. Profile Removal: Your profile information, including your photo, about section, favorites, and blocks, will be permanently deleted from the application [1].

2. Chat Conversations: If you remove the Grindr app from your phone without backing up your data, your chat conversations, saved phrases, and photos in your chat history will disappear [1]. However, if you have manually deleted your conversations before deleting the app, they will be permanently removed.

3. Messages Visibility: Deleting the Grindr application from your device will not automatically delete your messages. Your messages will still be visible to the people you have been messaging, but your username will no longer appear as an active user on the application [2].

4. Account Recovery: Grindr does not offer an account recovery option, so once you delete your account, it is a permanent decision [2]. If you wish to use Grindr again, you will need to complete the sign-up process and create a new account.
