What's New in Bumble For Friends

November 11, 2024
To be honest, everything is kinda new here. Say hello to our new dedicated friendship app - Bumble For Friends. It’s a bit like Bumble, but for finding friends and creating meaningful connections with people near you. We’ve got fun new profile features and important safety features to make it easy for people to show up in a way that’s genuine and true to themselves. We’re also creating a community centered around kindness, because kindness is kinda what we do. So, whether you’re looking for new friends to hit the town with, or to try that new workout class with, Bumble For Friends is here to help. Start a chat, meet up IRL, and find your kinda people.
So being a female user of this app, I have experienced a lot of aspects about this app and I think that lot of people don’t actually know or want to know how this app is. So first off I just wanna say that this app is a great outlet for girls And guys to find people their age was similar interest to hang out with. I like it because you can see people in your area and you can connect with them so you guys can hang out faster. But what I don’t like is some girls on this app will lie about their sexuality just to get you to hang out with them and the whole time they’re trying to be intimate with you when you thought that you found a genuine friend to hang out with. I also think that there should be some type of mod on the app for responding to people because girls will text you first and then stop using the app. It’s a cool idea 100% but it’s just flawed in the ways of safety kind of and practicality.
