Leave a Review Bumble For Friends
buggy app with potential
Downloaded this app yesterday, and got to talking to some cool people! Thought I’d give premium a try for a bit, and as soon as I purchased the subscription, my messages are stuck endlessly loading, not allowing me to respond or read chats. I’ve tried everything on the bumble troubleshooting website, including clearing stored data, deleting and redownloading the app, logging out and back in, and restarting my phone countless times, but nothing works. Hoping there will be a fix to this soon, as the app has a ton of potential, but as of now, I’m stuck paying 80$ for an app that doesn’t even work. :(Show lesslogeyniedz

We're sorry to hear that, and we'd like to have a closer look at the situation. Please contact us at bumble.com/contact by email or on social media @BumbleSupport. Our agents will get back to you as soon as possible. 💛App doesn’t load
When I get a notification and open the app, nothing will load. My profile, people or messages or who’s liked you doesn’t load. I paid $40 for premium so I’m annoyed this is what I have to deal with. I’ve tried restarting my phone and deleting the app and reinstalling. It just works when it feels like it, it seems.Show lessebrad617

We're sorry to hear about this. This shouldn't be happening, so our team would like to help you as soon as possible. Please message us at bumble.com/contact or on @BumbleSupport via social media. 💛Very lame- maybe unless you pay
So I’ve had this app for maybe two weeks. It doesn’t show me anyone new for a loooong time. It says 7 people “liked me,” but I can’t see them unless I pay like $40/month?! Dude, for one I am not paying for *potential* friendship. For two, I can’t afford that anyway. I’ve never had an app that charges that much for so little. It seems pointless to me so far. I’ll keep checking it every week or so but so far it’s very underwhelming.Show lesslillypoetaster

Thank you for your feedback on this. We're sorry you didn't enjoy your experience on Bumble for Friends. While there are paid features, we also have free features that can be used. Our team would love the opportunity to improve your experience in the Hive! Please message our Support Team on Twitter or Facebook (@BumbleSupport) and we'd be happy to help.Not free, poor customer service
I tried to view the people that “liked” me and it said to upgrade to premium to see. I wanted to see the cost so I clicked on it and it said I had “no payment info on file” but there’s no place in app or settings to do so. I see from reading the other reviews here that the cost is too high anyway. I contacted help but never got a response and it’s been over two weeks.Show lessAshSam

It’s not letting me in. I’ve tried various options to get into my account; Facebook, phone, Apple ID. All of which are connected to the account.
But it keeps glitching.honeybeeenbee

Thank you for your review. We're sorry to hear about this. Please message our Support Team on Twitter or Facebook (@BumbleSupport) so our team can have a look at this. 🐝Deleting my photos and prices
First and foremost, it keeps deleting my photos every time I log back on or my photos keep getting taken down even though they’re just photos of me and nothing wrong with it. I keep putting photos in my account and they take it down for community guidelines but it’s literally just a picture of me sitting in my car or just a normal picture of me.
Another thing is the prices for premium. $80 for three months? That seems a little bit too much just to see who swiped right on you and to go back if you accidentally swipe left on someone.
I do like the app I just wish that there wasn’t so many bugs in that it wasn’t so highly prized because there’s no way I’m paying that much just to see who’s swiped right on me.Show lesstiredofeeverything

Thanks for your review! We're so sorry to hear this. We want to take a look at what's happening with your photos. Please message us at @BumbleSupport on Twitter or Facebook. Alternatively, you can contact us via bumble.com/contact. About the price, we've forwarded the feedback to the relevant Team. Thanks a lot; we're always happy to hear how we can improve your experience. 💛Pay For Friends
In order to see what people like you back, so that you can have conversations with them, you need to pay ridiculous prices. You can’t even use the app for it’s intended purpose unless you’re willing to pay them money. Making friends is hard enough, and them pretending as if you can use this app without paying for it is misleading and insulting.Show lessAsh is Insulted
Developer Response
Oh no, we're sorry you feel this way. We know that making friends is hard, it is why we created Bumble For Friends. You don't have to pay to swipe, make matches, or send messages. We offer a few paid options to access additional features, but they're totally optional. You don't have to pay to make authentic connections in the Hive. If you have any questions, definitely reach out to our Support Team at bumble.com/contact. 🐝Good App!
Nice way to meet friends and people in a similar stage in life. Especially since that can be more awkward than dating and being well out of my 20’s.
One thing that I would improve is the selection of locations. Not a huge deal but neither my home town nor my current town are options.KitKat_89

Hi there! Thank you for leaving us a review. We appreciate you sharing your feedback with us. We are always looking for ways to improve our users' experience on the app so we will make sure to pass your input along to our Product Team. 💛Awesome concept but has flaws
I’ve been waiting for an app like this for awhile that people in my area actually use, which so far, they have! It’s been so fun meeting new people on here but there’s a lot of limitations on the interest buttons and how many swipes you can get. There should be another option to get more swipes other than the very high priced premium :(
I hope there’s new updates coming soon because this is an awesome app that is much needed for college aged adults!Show lesschlodak

Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts with us; we're delighted that you like our new app, Bumble For Friends! 🐝 We've introduced a limit on Swipes to make sure members use them genuinely to make great connections, but we'll make sure to forward your suggestions to the relevant team. 💛The app is underwhelming
I’m not really sure what the differences are between this and the regular Bumble but I am not impressed. My biggest pain point is that the chats section doesn’t say which chats are your turn or their turn to send a message? I keep forgetting to respond to messages because I thought it was the other persons turn….. this is really annoying. Also the app keeps showing the same people although I have already X’ed them out.Show lesskittlkat

We're sorry to hear you aren't enjoying your experience on Bumble For Friends, and we appreciate your feedback. We wanted to create a space for people who are exclusively seeking friendships and make it easier to plan meet-ups too. To be notified when you get a new message, you can go to the app Settings and edit them accordingly. If you voted no on a profile and you see it again, it might be because this member created a new profile or the app is giving you a new opportunity to ensure you don't want to connect. We hope this helps! If you have any other questions, please reach out to @BumbleSupport on social media. 💛
