BUILT FOR WOMEN, BETTER FOR EVERYONE 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.

Too much texting and all these men are not providers. They just want you to mold yourself into their life and pay for yourself. Cook , clean and have sex with them regularly. What’s the point!

Gives you the least amounts of swipes, makes it the hardest to match, costs the most for everything. Likes disappear forever if you accidentally swipe left, or if left alone too long, even matches disappear if you don’t reply in time. The way they have made this app is for people that pay ONLY. The worst app by far for free users.

Somebody there in this day and age should be able to easily pick up all the fake pictures… Those are dead giveaways had so many of these profiles are completely fake. They should never be on there in the first place and that’s frustrating.
Why do I have to do this……… • May 28, 2026 ★ 1
It costs 70$ for literally the LOWEST tier just to literally only get unlimited likes and it’s 70$+ tax a month? Talk about a racket, thought this app was for the people, to help them form connections, not rob them🤡

Half of the profiles or more are simply trying to sell you content or are promoting a Snapchat account

The app blocked me because I added my email address—so why don't you block all the accounts that are using Instagram?

I have been unable to recover my account even though I paid for a subscription through June 3rd. I have been to support help which tells me someone will contact me within 24-48 hours. It has been over 48 hours and no one has contacted me. I feel like my money is being wasted and that’s very upsetting.

$100 a month for an app is quite literally insane. Why would anyone pay that. Why would an app ask for that much even $30 a week for the basic one is crazy FR. What is wrong with people

Pretty dirty move for you guys to hide the subscription not inside of apples App Store subscription UI it’s almost like you’re hiding it so you can profit more.

The fact there's a paywall tells you everything, someone liked you? Too bad you gotta pray you get lucky and get them in your swipe deck. Most users are either AI or nowehere near you or your type, every feature seems useless including payment. What happened to the actual good dating apps? Social media does a better job than this app at it's own service. This is the greed the Lord spoke about in the bible.

Pink $32 for one week is absolutely insane

I wanted to give this app a try but I’m very disappointed that you can’t even see who likes you unless you get a premium subscription and yeah I see that it might be a good way to connect with someone on this app but I’m sorry, I am not paying for a dating app.
AAdcox • May 28, 2026 ★ 3
It’s dating app and it has a lot of filters and whatnot. Just wish everything wasn’t behind a paywall

Back in the early 2020s, I used the big 3 major dating apps. I always found the most success with bumble. My tinder matches were mostly superficial and my hinge matches were always so stuck up. My bumble matches always gave me a better quality match with more reasonable women. Yes, women don’t know how initiate a conversation, but I found that if they did reach out, it was your chance to show a good reason why they were interested in you. I met two girlfriends on bumble and also met my wife! I know I’m probably the exception to the norm, but bumble worked for me.

Cancelled and they still billed me! They they said “no refunds” after being billed and to dispute it with my bank and they would deny it in the proper channels. Horrible.

Despite the app itself being Free , the app will force you to paid for their Premium Version to see any of your likes. Anyone trying this app for the first time , you’ve been warned. You will pay to use this app if you download it.

Over the years, I’ve spent thousands on dating apps. At $30-40 a month, I would subscribe without much thought.

As they’ve increased prices from $30-40 a month to $79-99 a month, paying members have dropped from 10 million down to less than 3 million. No wonder the stock has tanked since its IPO, and the company is cutting most of its staff.

Providing a dismal user experience and charging more is not the answer. If Bumble were a 5 star app in 2014, it now rates as -5 stars. The different is that stark.

I’m swiping left one last time and deleting from my iPhone forever.

I’ve been on and off as a woman user on the free version. All I have to say is women and men if you want you can all walk on eggshells on this app because you can get your profile revenge reported by another snowflake user for a made up reason. Too bad so sad that I appealed and I won against a male. A person that doesn’t even know me or never met ..made up something. There’s no accountability. It’s annoying also that the 24 hour limit expires . I work , I am busy!. Bumble prevents me from meeting people. I can’t log on every hour of the day. Also can’t tell if profiles are genuine ; and when someone unmatches you in the middle of a conversation… you have no idea what happened there. Deleting. Waste of time. I’m not paying for something that doesn’t guarantee it will work.

Trash. Total trash. If I could give it zero stars I would. They ask if you like the app. If you say no. They don’t ask for your review. If you say yes they ask for a review. They filter the reviews. I have already written a review before and it never showed up. So trying again. Do not pay for this app. I’m also sure most of the good reviews are fake. Made by employees. Everyone I know says the same horrible things I have to say about online dating as well.

Shouldn’t lock likes and messages behind a paywall turned me away instantly.
