Sniffies has had an interesting year — from being written about in The New Yorker and New York Magazine to being a tool allegedly used by Amtrak police to execute a sting operation that led to the arrest of over 200 queer New Yorkers earlier this year. But the app's popularity doesn't come solely from the press it's received; that's evident in its 2025 Sniffies Download report, released on Wednesday.

On a miserably rainy day in New York City, the W Hotel in Union Square was the perfect reprieve from the dreariness and gray skies. In here, one of the ballrooms was transformed into a winter wonderland — just in time for the Christmas season.
