Description
Bumble is a free dating app helping singles find fun, meaningful, and kind connections. It’s the dating app where kindness is sexy, and women come first—always.
Bumble is a free dating app dedicated to helping singles find fun, meaningful, and kind connections. It’s the dating app where kindness is sexy, and where women come first, always. We champion respect and equality, and we don't just welcome, but we celebrate every orientation. So whether you're straight, gay, lesbian, trans, here to find love, here to find fun, here to find friends, or simply dating for the plot–creating new connections has never been easier.
Our community is filled with millions of people across the globe who are ready to chat and meet new people, build genuine and meaningful connections, and maybe find that artsy, museum-loving, Scorpio they've been looking for.
DATE, MEET NEW FRIENDS, AND NETWORK
Our matchmaking technology is constantly evolving to create a fun, kind, and most importantly safe experience for you across all of our apps, including:
Bumble Date: Where women make the first move. Women always come first on Bumble, we've rewritten the dating rules so that everyone can form meaningful relationships safely and respectfully.
Bumble For Friends: Life is better with friends. Whether you're new to a city or hoping to expand your circle, Bumble For Friends is an easy way to make new friends.
Bumble Bizz: Yep, you read that correctly. We have Bumble Bizz, too. Use Bumble Bizz to network, find mentors, and create new exciting career opportunities.
WOMEN COME FIRST, ALWAYS
We believe a better world for women means a better world for everyone. So, for the most part, women get to make the first move around here. In heterosexual matches, the woman has 24 hours to make the first move and the man has 24 hours to respond. In same-sex matches, either person has 24 hours to make the first move, while the other individual has 24 hours to respond. So, don't let them be the one that got away. Send that message ASAP.

Ratings and Reviews
Editors' Notes
Matchmaking app Bumble flips traditional social norms. Here, women make the first move. Some 50 million people have used it to not only find a date but also make friends and conduct business. If you don’t start chatting within 24 hours, the match disappears—encouraging you to actually talk to people.
A success for me
This app brought me my current boyfriend.
I downloaded the app after thinking 'eh...just try the app and get in the dating game again'.
Within two days of downloading the app, I matched with someone great. We talked for a few weeks (starting late February) before we went on a date partly due to me heading on a one week trip interstate shortly after we started talking. We kept talking even while I was away and even though I matched with other people before we went on our date, this guy was capturing my attention the most. The question game feature was what I started with and he actually liked the feature and we kept conversing based off these questions.
We went on many dates since the first one in mid March and just over a week ago decided to make our relationship official. We're both so happy that the app helped us find each other.
Yeah, there were occasional glitches where my messages wouldn't send, and some of the premium features (which I did pay for for a month) I feel should also be in the free version like some of the dating preference filters) but I feel so lucky finding someone within a week of getting the app, so it delivered in the sense that it did what it advertised!
Thanks Bumble

Could there be a messaging bug?
I’m wondering whether there could be a bug in the messaging functionality? I’ve encountered a couple of situations where my match doesn’t respond to one of my messages and then, about a week later, they unmatch me. While the first reason one might think of that explains this is that I’ve said something that wasn’t appreciated, which I’m confident is not the case, or they’ve simply lost interest and moved on, which I hope isn’t the case. In either case, why would my match wait about a week before unmatching me, it’s almost as if they were waiting for something e.g. a reply from me? My most recent such experience was only two messages after the match, one message each within the first 24 hours of matching, and we were deciding on where to meet. I had suggested a location that I thought was convenient for my match as it was located in the same suburb that Bumble indicated she was located. I kept checking for messages in Bumble every couple of days for the week that followed in case the push notification related to her reply wasn’t received by my phone but she never replied and, about a week after I had replied, we were no longer matched. I wonder if she never received my reply or whether I never received her reply.
