About this app
MAKE YOUR MOVE Bumble is the women-first dating app designed to create safer, more respectful connections and conversations that lead to better in-person dates and relationships. HOW WE SUPPORT YOUR DATING JOURNEY We empower you to show up as your most authentic self, so you can move confidently toward meeting in real life by: - Focusing on you as a person, not a profile. When you write your bio and prompts, or update your photos, we’ll share personalized tips that help highlight the unique qualities that make you stand out. - Showing you people who match your energy. Just set your Intentions and Looking For to find people who want to date the way you do. Or, add Interest Badges to find people who are into what you’re into. - Empowering women to message first. Once a match is made, women send the first chat, and their match has 24 hours to reply before the connection expires. - Prioritizing safety at every step of your dating journey. Get ID Verified early-on (like the majority of our community), try Share Date to drop location details with the group chat, or use Block and Report, Unmatch, or the Safety Center for extra support. - Giving your chats a boost. Our built-in guidance helps keep your exchanges kind and respectful, while chat and video options make it easier to progress your connection, without ever leaving the app. - Adapting to your needs. If you want to take a step back from meeting new people, enable Snooze Mode to take a break from dating without losing your current matches. Looking for even more options? Try Bumble Boost, Bumble Premium, and Premium+. Bumble is free, but these premium services give you even more flexibility and dating options, with advanced filters, extended matches, Incognito Mode, and Travel Mode. ADDITIONAL INFO Your personal data is securely processed in line with our privacy policy and applicable laws.

2026-08-06Worst app ever
Quite literally the worst dating app ever. No matches, no likes, and no people in my area?? I live in an area that has over 8 MILLION PEOPLE. And you’re telling me there are 0 people that match my age range in a 25 mile radius? Horrible experience I hope this app gets deleted forever.

2026-08-05Niche Audience is Noteworthy
Tried Bumble for a few days. The demographic is very affluent people who lean conservative. If that is your paradise, it could be your app of choice. The app isn't bad, but it is too much like a slot machine and the reward for playing is about as worth it.

App is forcing an update, but will not update. I was already going to delete it because It often tells me I have to change my parameters(age range, distance) implying that I’m out of people to swipe through within those parameters. Then after I bump up the distance slightly it proceeds to give me people with in my original parameters. It’s like all things, a greedy app only interested in satiating the people dumb enough to give them money. Online dating is unnatural, go outside and talk to people.
