Keeping women safe is now "at the heart" of the world's largest dating app, Tinder, it claims.
The technology company is launching a partnership with campaign group No More, aiming to end domestic violence.
"Our safety work is never done," Tinder's first female chief executive, Renate Nyborg, tells BBC News.
At the moment in England and Wales, acts such as upskirting or voyeurism are criminalised, but the recommendations would be extended further to cover the act of photographing a woman's bra, cleavage or breasts.
Northern Irish Justice Minister Naomi Long, who strengthened the law in this area in Northern Ireland, told the BBC: "New offences have been created for upskirting, downblousing and cyber-flashing where those convicted will be liable to a maximum of two years' imprisonment.
Upskirting has been a custodial offence in UK since 2019.
The BBC found thousands of users openly sharing obscene material of women and girls taken in public without their consent. One man who posted videos of himself stalking schoolgirls in New York is now being investigated by police.
New products are being weaponised against women, but is it just the tip of the iceberg as we enter a boom period for technology abuse?
No-one should live in fear of abuse. Enough is enough. We can all do our bit to keep women and girls safe.
A BBC investigation has found that women's intimate pictures are being shared to harass, shame and blackmail them on a massive scale, on the social media app Telegram.
