Find Love, Friendship, and More with Bumble

Women make the first move on Bumble.

Bumble helps you make connections in a way that challenges antiquated gender norms: When two people of different genders match in the app, only those who identify as women can start the conversation.

What we love: All the creative ways you can break the ice in the app. Answer Profile Prompts that serve as conversation starters or maximize your profile with Badges that list potential shared interests. Once you’ve matched with someone, break the ice with the Question Game.

Quick tip: SuperSwipe is a great way to show someone you’re really, really interested in getting to know them. Tap the star icon on their profile to activate SuperSwipe; they’ll be notified that they caught your eye—and encouraged to give your profile a look.

Meet the creator: Whitney Wolfe Herd founded Bumble in 2014 to challenge the gender dynamics of dating and romance. So far, women have made billions of first moves on Bumble.
