Creating a profile on Bumble only to get fewer matches than you had hoped for can be frustrating. Luckily, there are a variety of changes you can make to your profile and app settings to boost your match chances. This wikiHow article will teach you how to match with more people on Bumble.

1 of 13:Use pictures that show your face.

Pick photos where you are looking at the camera, not wearing sunglasses, and smiling. Users are often hesitant to swipe on profiles with a partially-obscured face in the first picture. Showing your face lets the person honestly consider if they are attracted to you, removing the guesswork that makes some less likely to like your profile.

2 of 13:Keep your bio short and interesting.

A few engaging words can help catch someone’s eye without boring the reader. There are plenty of prompts you can use to say more about who you are, so do not feel a need to cram everything into your bio.

3 of 13:Fill out your entire profile.

A full profile shows that you are truly interested in getting matches. Additionally, it gives potential matches much more to go off of when deciding if they should like your profile. Something as small as shared music taste or attending a specific school can create a connection between you and a stranger.

4 of 13:Link your other social media accounts.

This allows users to learn even more about who you are. Linking your Spotify can help interested people understand your personality, and other platforms like Instagram provide more snapshots of your life.

5 of 13:Increase your match distance.

The greater your match radius, the more people you can match with. Start with an increase of just 10 miles, as even that small change can significantly add to the eligible dating pool.

6 of 13:Include Profile Prompts.

Profile Prompts are a great way to showcase your personality. Also, you can include plenty of potential conversation starters in your Prompts so your matches can easily think of a first message.

7 of 13:Show your profile to a friend of the preferred gender.

You look at your profile differently from the people who might want to date you. Asking a friend of your preferred gender to take a look can bring a different perspective to the table. They can help you figure out what jokes do and do not land, what photos make you look your best, and so on.

8 of 13:Verify your account.

A verified account shows you are not a catfish and you are invested in finding matches. This alleviates people’s worries about meeting up with someone completely different or even finding themselves in an unsafe situation.

9 of 13:Use the app regularly.

As with most social media, Bumble prioritizes active users. If you only use the app once in a while, your profile will likely be shown to fewer people and perform less well. Additionally, you will receive less matches since you are swiping right on fewer people, decreasing your potential match pool.

10 of 13:Swipe right on more people.

Liking more profiles means a bigger pool of people who might like your profile back. Remember that everyone else has gone through the same profile creation process you have! If you are somewhat attracted to a person and do not see any glaring red flags in their profile, consider swiping right. You can always unmatch if your conversation does not go well.

11 of 13:Change your profile up.

Try editing bits and pieces of your profile, then tracking your matches. If you find that one set of pictures works better than the other, keep those pictures! Do not be afraid to constantly tweak your profile to keep it appealing and up-to-date.

12 of 13:Subscribe to premium features.

While they cost money, premium features can be a huge help when looking for matches. Bumble has two paid plans, Bumble Boost and Bumble Premium, and they come with abilities like undoing accidental left swipes, unlimited swipes, and SuperSwipes, which send the person a notification and demonstrate strong interest.

13 of 13:Delete your account and make a new profile.

If your old profile did not work, try using different photos, a different bio, and so on. Deleting and recreating your profile also works as a kind of reset button, showing you profiles you have previously swiped on.
- While Bumble won't ban your account for resetting your profile once, deleting and recreating your profile multiple times might result in a warning from the service.
