Battling dating fatigue? No matter what kind of connection you’re seeking, dating and networking app Bumble is filled with fun features to boost your experience. These five are just the beginning.

Lead with the best
Can’t decide which photo needs to be front and centre on your profile? Bumble makes that choice for you. Upload six photos and the Best Photo Feature will suggest which of your first three Bumble profile photos has the potential to get the most right swipes or likes, improving your chance of finding your next connection.

Break the ice
Bumble differs from other dating apps as people who identify as women must make the first move. Striking up conversation can be intimidating, but with Bumble’s Profile Hint feature, you can select topics or questions for discussion.
Get inquisitive
If conversation feels dry, try Bumble’s Question Game. Use the app’s pre-made questions in the chat feature to find common ground or test your chemistry. Discover their love language, resolve the dog or cat debate or learn more about their favourite shows. The best part: answers are only visible once both parties respond.

Keep it clean
Safety is key to Bumble. The Private Detector gives you control over any unsolicited photos. All photos exchanged are scanned using artificial intelligence (AI) – this will detect inappropriate and lewd content and immediately blur the image before sending. Bumble gives you the power to choose whether or not you’d like to view it, as well as the option to block the user.
Become a VIP
Get ahead of the rest with Spotlight, Bumble’s exclusive feature that will show off your profile to potential dates. Once a week, Bumble Boost and Bumble Premium subscribers have access to one 30-minute Spotlight; to maximise your time to shine, combine a second Spotlight to keep your profile visible for 150 minutes. If you’re not ready to subscribe, purchase Spotlight individually and get a taster of the limelight.
