"In the spirit of the US Open, Grindr's taking a swing at something new - introducing the 'grunt' notification sound. That's right, tennis grunts. They're hot, they're heavy, and now they're part of your Grindr experience."
"Serving Grunt. Like 'em loud?" a notification from the app read, on the same day the grunt sound was implemented.
The noise has been timed to that of the US Open tennis tournament, and will run until its close (9 September), offering users a way to express their love of balls flying at faces both on and off the court.
The new Grindr sound has provided a hilarious bevy of memes on the timeline of X, including one user asking: 'Why are you telling me to Serve Grunt?'
