“Something went wrong, please retry. Have you run into this error on Grindr? It is not the only one that you will see if you have been using this application for a while to flirt with gay men, trans women and other people from the LGTBI community. And it is that, even though it is the best known, used and developed over the years, it also has its flaws and problems. And here we are going to tell you what they are and teach you how to solve them So that a mistake doesn't prevent you from finding love. Or a good romp.
To continue, turn on device location using Google location services
If you get this error that says “To continue, turn on device location using Google location services”, it's clear that you will be having problems with the location of your mobile. Your mobile can't find where you are, go. To solve it you will have to perform several steps. The first will be to set your GPS to high precision, to ensure that it is able to find you as accurately as possible. For it:
- Go to your device settings.
- Search for the Location section.
- Access the advanced settings section that you will find in the Location menu.
- Change your location mode to High accuracy. It usually depends on using your mobile's WiFi and Bluetooth connections to get more specific data on your current position.
Which is done, tap on restarting Grindr to make sure it's picking up the new location data correctly. Follow these steps:
- Open your device's Settings.
- Go to the applications section.
- Select Grindr.
- Tap Force Stop/Close.
- Tap Storage.
- Tap Clear Cache.
- Reopen Grindr.
This should solve your location problem, with updated and more accurate data of your current position.
Mobile phones that do not use Google services, as is currently the case with Huawei, will inevitably suffer from this problem. And it is that Grindr uses these Google services in the field of location to find the position of the user.A good solution is to use the GSpace tool to use Grindr through it with Google services.
Maximum number of accounts
If you get the error “maximum number of accounts” when trying to do something on Grindr it means you've reached your limit. You will not be able to register new accounts with that email address. Thus, to create a new account and not encounter this problem, you must associate a new email account. And ready.
No Internet connection cannot update
On Grindr it is quite common for you to encounter the error “there is no Internet connection, cannot update” It usually happens because of several reasons, although the main one is that your Internet connection has failed. Check if it is a WiFi problem by disconnecting your mobile from this network.Open settings and disable Wi-Fi. If, with your internet data, the same error appears, then the problem is with the application. You can also check that you have access to other applications that use the Internet to find out if the problem is with the connection or with the app.
If the problem is with the app, all you have to do is restart the mobile to try to repair it. It usually solves a large number of errors. You should also check that there is no update pending to be installed in the Google Play Store, if you have an Android mobile, or in the App Store if you have an iPhone.
If after all this Grindr still doesn't work and gives the same error over and over again, it is most likely an internal server problem. Wait for some time and see if the error does not disappear automatically.
Cannot update. Try again later
This “cannot update” error can occur for many reasons. From problems with the Internet connection, to the use of VPNs that do not work very well, IP blocks or even regions censored by governments that are not very progressive. Yes, all this may be affecting your dating app. In these cases, these are the official steps that Grindr offers to resume the proper functioning of the app:
- Force the application to close.
- Wait approximately 30 minutes.
- Reopen Grindr.
With this, the error should stop appearing, as long as no cause persists that maintains it. Thus, you could update your grid of close contacts without problem. Still, if the error exists, Grindr recommends a second way to avoid the “cannot update” issue.It consists of completely deleting the application from your mobile and reinstalling it from scratch. Of course, try to save all your conversations if you don't want to lose any of them before deleting the app from your mobile.
Insecure connection detected
The “insecure connection detected” error can appear when you try to log into Grindr while connected to a public or unsafe WiFi network . Or when it is a WiFi network in which you need to register to have an Internet connection. If the problem persists, you should press the Retry connection button until you are redirected to the WiFi settings.
You may need to identify yourself with your email address or some other identification to connect to the Internet through that public WiFi network. Something common in hotels and airports, for example. When you have an internet connection check that Grindr works as it should.
If, despite all this, Grindr continues to throw the error "insecure connection detected", those responsible for the technical support of the dating app recommend reinstalling it. If you have an Internet connection, it is recommended that you make a backup of your chats. If you can download Grindr again, it's most likely a connection error, and this will fix it.
Registration error
In this case, the problem is serious, and affects the system for creating new accounts. In fact, Grindr asks you to go to its help section to solve it. It will ask you for information such as the registration method (if you use email, your Google or Facebook account), if you have already linked your email to a Grindr account and also the place (city or town) from where you want to to register. You can request assistance through its support page by following the steps that appear on it.
