Looking for romance? Bumble helps make dating better for everyone by putting women’s experiences first.

Here are five tips for making the most of the app.

Add Badges to your profile to showcase your interests.

Share what you love

Shared interests can be the foundation of a lasting relationship, and Bumble’s Badges are an easy way to list yours up front. Choose up to five from over 150 options.

Insider tip: Of the many Badge categories available, the ones for exercise and astrology are among the most popular globally.

Apply filters to pinpoint the kind of connection you’re hoping to find.

Set your intentions

Use Dating Intentions to make it clear what type of relationship you’re looking for – whether it’s serious or casual. Get help finding exactly what you’re seeking on your dating journey by applying filters.

Insider tip: You get two free advanced filters (such as height and zodiac sign), and you can upgrade for more options.

Express yourself

Bumble’s Profile Prompts help you express what makes you unique – and can serve as conversation starters once you match with someone.

Insider tip: Not sure where to start? These prompts have been the most popular worldwide:

• “We’ll get along if…”
• “My favourite quality in a person is…”
• And the ever popular “The quickest way to my heart is…”

Add up to three of these fun, thought-provoking prompts to your profile.

Want to get the conversation flowing? Choose a great Opening Move question.

Break the ice

Once you match with someone, answering their Opening Move question can kick off a conversation. Replies will start the chat, but you’ll only have 24 hours to keep the chat going.

Insider tip: Looking for more fun icebreakers? Start a round of the Question Game in the chat to keep the conversation rolling.

Dive into the data

A profile picture’s worth a thousand opening lines – and the Best Photo feature can help you test variations of your profile pics so you know which ones capture your best angles.

Insider tip: Premium+ members can dive even deeper into their Photo Insights with a dashboard that shows how well each pic is performing.
