Restrictions applied to adult content by your Internet Service Provider administrators can sometimes cause connection issues. Unfortunately, we have very little control over this as these restrictions are controlled by the government.
We recommend either contacting the network administrator for more details or attempting to connect via another Wi-Fi network or 4G to see if this is indeed the issue. Internet censorship may prevent members from accessing Grindr in the following countries:

Note: If you choose to use a VPN please check local laws about VPN usage.
