The new version absolutely sucks. I’ve been using Bumble BFF old version for years and I freaking love it way more you need to keep it do not change it or you’re gonna lose a lot of customers just keep
Inferior version of original app
Tggggia
Very disappointed to see that bumble has switched their interface to be more like discord than an app actually focused on building friendship, as someone who has made many friends from the old app I’m sad to see it go, but I used the new app and I can say that it’s not very user friendly. 1. The app is very confusing to navigate, there’s a people section, a handshake wave and a group section that can be confusing to new users and looks very disorganized in comparison to the old app, it’s very busy. 2. It’s hard to find local groups in my city, whenever I try to search my city in the groups section nothing pops up I have to find the groups on other peoples profiles, which makes me wonder if they want people to meet up at all. 3. No option to filter by common interests, I don’t have a way to make friends that align with my principles and no way to filter out traits I don’t want in a friend. 4. Very focused on group engagement and less emphasis on one on one friendships, the key ways I was able to make friends off the old app was through the one on one chats, with the emphasis on group chats it will be difficult to make friends in a 100 people moderated group. 5. Feels very unnecessary as there was nothing wrong with the original app and was very well known, now it will take months or even years to get people to move to this new app. 6. I imagine many people won’t move to this new app as there’s already a discord and other apps that are the same thing.
Developers, add a “not interested” button and I’ll change my review

I actually think this is a nice improvement from the original app except for one ridiculous new feature: You cannot clear people from your stack. I understand the logic, to stop all the insta-rejections. But common, it’s a basic UX necessity on these apps. We need the ability to clear away things we’re not interested in seeing for ease of use

Thanks for sharing your feedback - we're sorry you aren't happy with these changes. On BFF, the focus is on connecting through Discovery instead of swiping, as many members told us they wanted a different way to meet people beyond yes/no swipes. We’re committed to making BFF better every day, and your input helps us get there. 💛
Disappointing New App
Deni84
I wish I could be more complimentary about this new app as I met some wonderful friends on the previous version, but nope. Here are my issues with it: (1) - The focus is obviously on groups vs individual friends because it defaults to groups when you open it. Otherwise why would it be set up to do that? (2) - The “Distance filter” is faulty at best and terrible at worst. At the “close” range I have been paired with someone in the bordering country (which is 2 hours away from me) and at “wherever” I am being matched with people within my own area that don’t show up at close range. (3) - Gender selection is no longer an option which doesn’t feel safe. (4) - Common interests can’t be selected, so what are the metrics, is it really only distance and age? (5) - You can’t import your old chats, so those are lost. (6) - MOST ANNOYINGLY, you can’t swipe which means if you don’t want to pair with someone, your only option is to block them in order to remove them from your view/list and to keep them from being able to “Says Hi”. This seems like the worst and most disappointing update of all.
