Grindr’s new Right Now feature brings a spicy live feed to the hookup app
1 min read
Summary
Right Now, a new feature by Grindr, functions like a social media-like live feed and displays a stream of recent posts that can include text and photos.
Posts disappear from the feed after an hour and users can specify whether they are looking to host.
During the initial launch, users in certain locations will get a number of free hour-long Right Now sessions per week, meaning the feed will only be accessible in hour-long windows.
Grindr is also looking to integrate AI into its services, with CEO George Arison stating he wants the company to be built “as if we are an AI-native startup”.
This is the latest phase in Grindr’s plan to roll out new features, which also includes A-list, a tool that summarises chats to help users rekindle connections.
