Bumble: Dating & Friends (Worldwide) Reviews

“I learned about it because a few of my friends were using it and talked about their positive experiences.

I initially started using the Bumble application around May 2023. Therefore, I have been an active or intermittent user of Bumble for approximately two and a half years now.

I currently use Bumble several times throughout the week, primarily during the evenings or on weekends. On average, I check the app to view new matches, swipe, and respond to messages about four to five times per week, but this frequency may slightly decrease during busy periods

The most useful feature of Bumble, for me, is the central mechanism where women initiate the first contact. This feature significantly reduces the volume of unsolicited messages and promotes a more respectful and intentional communication environment. Additionally, the option to switch between Dating, Friends (BFF), and Bizz makes it highly versatile for various social needs.

What I dislike most is the 24-hour time limit to initiate contact, which often causes potentially good matches to expire due to busy schedules. Furthermore, while the quality of profiles is good, the number of active users in my specific area sometimes feels limited compared to other platforms.

I would highly recommend Bumble as the ideal dating app for people seeking a more respectful and purposeful connection. I would specifically highlight the benefit of the 'women-make-the-first-move' rule, which creates a safer and less overwhelming environment. I would also mention its versatility, allowing users to switch easily between dating, finding friends (BFF), and networking (Bizz).

“Through panelplace, the best app I've ever seen when I was I need of it and worth to try.

Ermmm about a year ago I started using Bumble that's around late 2024 slash early 2025. I use it once a while but sometimes frequently tho whenever I'm less busy.

Most useful about Bumble is meeting new friends...It has been great cause I get angry easily but now I've chatted with new set of people.

But dislike meeting a fake person...Well he lied to me but I didn't really fall into his trap.

One of the best dating sites and meeting new friends to communicate around the world 🌎🌎 and also easy to register.

“My neighbor introduced me to Bumble about a week after moving into this new neighborhood.

I started using Bumble the moment I got settled in my new home! My friends and I chat everyday on Bumble! Treasured moments I never knew I needed..

I'm exceptionally blown away by the video chat option! This allows me to actually interact with new friends virtually before meeting them in person! Pretty cool! I must be honest, I have no issues with Bumble...I really do like it!

I would definitely recommend Bumble to every and anyone who's particularly new to an area or space who is looking to meet and greet!

“A coworker mentioned it to me and I just decided to take a leap of faith.

Started using it for about seven months now and it's amazing. I use it every other day due to work I don't have a lot of time.

It helps me to find persons that have the same common interest as me. As of right now I don't have any complaints about the app.

I would recommend this app to people who don't like to be outside and have issues with meet people in person and is more comfortable virtually speaking.

“I heard this app through my friends who also using this app.

I used it recently I was influenced by my friend to tried this because they said that it was a good app to find new friends. And out of curiosity I downloaded and try the app myself. I used this almost everyday. Just tryna find different people to talk with. And it is fun.
I started using Bumble 2 years ago when my friend recommended it to me then. I use Bumble very frequently in the past as I was an introvert and it helped me meet new people.

so basically over an year. 2-3 times a day is the least i use it for when its weekend or holidays i might use it double.

the most useful thing is that it makes you meet people make friends or partners very easily especially for a socially awkward introvert guy like me and there are sooo many choices.
Most useful about Bumble is it helps introvert people interact with others as I myself loved interaction with people here. None I dislike as it does not has any negative side of it rather helpful for introverted people.
the most useful about bumble is that it takes the users safety in a serious matter. It ensures that every profile is authentic and I think it a great app to put your trust because other apps like this is often lacking on this feature.

As a good and necessary aap for the interaction of the youth.

But maybe the subscriptions cost, because you won't be able to use some desirable features in the app like who swiped on you.

I would highly recommend this app, it attracts a wide range of users who's looking for serious relations, just casual dating and friendship.

“I just saw this in a social media platform while I'm browsing it,

I've been using it since 2023 and so far I have met so many friends. I use Bumble 3 hours a day and sometimes if someone messages me, I'll use it.

Most useful about Bumble is getting to know a lot of people in other countries. But someone may use someone else's photo and name that might deceived some users.

Use this app if you're bored and wanted someone to talk to.

“I was on tik tok searching for dating app and I was recommended bumble a bunch of times

I started using it in March and stopped In May because I found my soul mate. I used bumble everyday even now that I find a partner I still use it to find a friend.

It very useful for because it helps you find exactly what you went on there to find. I only hate that have to pay to see who likes me and I have only 24 hours after finding my match to communicate.

I say if you ever need an app to find a partner bumble is that app.

“I first heard about Bumble through a friend who recommended it as a dating app where women make the first move. I also saw ads on social media that highlighted its different features like Bumble BFF and Bumble Bizz, which caught my interest.

I started using Bumble in early 2023. I’ve used it on and off for over two years now, exploring both the dating and friendship features depending on what I was looking for at the time. I usually check the app a few times a week. When I’m more actively looking to meet someone or expand my social circle, I use it daily.

I love that Bumble allows me to connect with people based on my current needs—whether it’s dating, making new friends, or networking. The “women first” feature in dating makes me feel safer and more in control, and the design of the app is clean and easy to use.

But sometimes the 24-hour reply time limit feels too short, especially if I get busy and miss a match. Also, some premium features are quite expensive compared to similar apps.

I would definitely recommend Bumble to anyone who wants a more respectful, intentional, and versatile platform for dating, making friends, or even networking. It's a great app for building real connections based on shared values and interests.

“I got to know bumble when I'm scrolling to the playstore and i got curious.

I've been using bumble for about more or less 2 - 3 years. It actually depends on my free time but usually I use it almost every night.

Most useful about Bumble is when you can pick who you can match with. You are the one controlling the system of your own. I don't have any problem about bumble from 3 years of using it.

I can recommend bumble by saying that you handle your own fate because bumble is not randomly matching you with5others but you get to choose who you talk to.

“I first heard about Bumble from a friend who told me about its cool features for dating and making friends. I decided to try it out and liked that it also has a BFF mode to help people connect as friends. It felt like a great way to meet new people.

I started using Bumble around 2 years ago, and I’ve been using it regularly ever since. It’s been a fun way to meet new people and make connections.

I use Bumble a few times a week, mainly to connect with new people and explore the different features like Bumble BFF. It’s part of my routine now, especially when I have some free time.

The most useful thing about Bumble for me is the ability to connect with people in different ways—whether it's for dating, making friends, or networking. The Bumble BFF feature has been great for meeting new people and expanding my social circle, especially when moving to a new area or looking for new connections.

One thing I dislike about Bumble is that sometimes it can take a while to match with people, especially if you’re in a smaller area. Also, not everyone is very responsive after a match, which can be a bit disappointing.

I would recommend Bumble to anyone looking to meet new people, whether for dating, friendship, or even networking. It’s a great app for those who want to take control of their connections and make meaningful matches. The Bumble BFF feature, in particular, is perfect for expanding your social circle.
