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.

1. 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.

2. 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 looking for on your dating journey by applying filters.
Insider tip: You now get the zodiac sign Advanced filter for free, and you can upgrade for more options.
3. Express yourself
Bumble’s Profile Prompts help you express what makes you unique—and can serve as conversation starters once you match with someone. Add up to three to your profile.
Insider tip: Not sure where to start? These prompts are the most popular worldwide: “We’ll get along if…,” “My favorite quality in a person is…,” and the ever-popular “The quickest way to my heart is…”

4. Break the ice
Once you match with someone, answering their Opening Move question can kick off a conversation. Replies will start the chat, but your match only has 24 hours to keep the chat going.
Insider tip: Looking for more fun icebreakers? Start a round of the Question Game in the chat.
5. Dive into the data
A profile picture is worth a thousand opening lines—and with the Best Photo feature turned on, you can upload multiple pics and Bumble will automatically show the one that performs the best.
Insider tip: Premium+ members get access to a dashboard that shows detailed metrics on how well each pic is performing.
