It’s frustrating when you’re not happy with the number of connections you’re making. But good news! There’s lots you can do to improve your chances.
Fill out your profile
Having a complete profile is possibly the best thing you can do. Not sure where to start? Check out these profile tips from a friendship expert.
Say what you’re looking for (if you know), your interests, and maybe a fun fact about yourself. Give potential friends plenty of ‘hooks’ they can start a conversation with.
Verify yourself
Use our Photo Verification feature so people know you’re real. It’s easy and gives potential friends early reassurance that they’re not wasting their time.
Other parts of your profile also help with this. Filling in your work and education and linking your Instagram are great ways to show you’re a real, interesting person.
Get time savvy
There’s no bad time to use Bumble For Friends, but there's a best time when more people are online and more matches happen.
If you’re between 18 and 22, the best time to use the app is 7-10pm. If you’re 23 or over, try slightly earlier between 6 and 9pm.
