A swipe for every occasion
Bumble simplifies the online dating and networking scene. You’ll find options to find your significant other, make new friends, or connect with a new business opportunity.
Date or make friends
Bumble is the app for making friends, finding a date, and networking in a swiping fashion, similar to Tinder.
Online dating can be a difficult process, swiping constantly but matching with no one. While Bumble can’t guarantee you a match, it offers another platform to find your special partner as well as friends and business contacts.
Bumble Date uses a unique feature. Once you match with someone, you may not be able to start chatting immediately. On a match, the ladies have to start a conversation. The app is known for this as it gives a sense of empowerment to the women who use it, as well as relieving the men of the tension or jitters they might usually experience.
If a conversation doesn’t start within 24 hours, Bumble cancels the match. However, it can be extended (only once) for another 24 hours. This is done to keep your match list fresh and unsullied with fake or spam accounts.
Bumble, unlike other similar apps, has a verification step that you can do. This shows that you really are who you say you are to other people. All you need to do is send a picture that’s recreating the shown gesture. It’s simple and offers peace of mind to anyone else using the platform.
The app has 3 sections. There’s Date, BFF, and Bizz. Each area has its own purpose: Dating, making friends, or building business connections. You can set up a profile for each of these, which presents a good option for users. You won’t have to cross connections between profiles.
Where can you run this program?
Bumble is available for Android 5.0 and up as well as IOS 12.0 and later.
Is there a better alternative?
Yes. While Bumble is a multi-purpose application, it isn’t as popular as competitor apps. Tinder is one of the most popular dating apps around. As such, it has far more users and a higher chance that you’ll meet someone special.
Our take
Bumble is a great app that takes the pressure off guys, requiring women to message first and start the conversation. This could lead to disappointment, though, if your matches don’t message you. However, it gives more power to the ladies while taking a load off the men’s shoulders.
Should you download it?
Yes. If you’re single and ready to mingle or want to make some new friends, then this app is a must-have.
