Can only women locate men (resembling Bumble)?

Either way, couldn't this app be a handy tool for antisocial behavior? (anything from laughing at randomers to finding a victim of some sort of crime)

Couldn't you use Tinder for those same antisocial behavior? How is this any different?

I cannot walk around the city and determine who is using Tinder.

But with this app I can purposefully visit a place known to have a user.

i.e. real-world interactions have a lot more repercussions than cyber-bullying.

Since you mention Grindr, I remember in my company there were guys who would sign up as gay, just to see who in the company (and I guess in their social circle) was secretly gay, and tell it to other people. The irony is that they would find other guys doing the same.
