Still in search of that perfect Bumble match? Your dating profile could use a boost with these tips, features!

MANILA, Philippines — Real talk: meeting new people nowadays can be a real challenge. That’s why online dating apps like Bumble are so popular—they make it easier to break the ice.

The thrill of scrolling and the hope of getting that “perfect catch” is what makes online dating a bit of an adventure. If you’re feeling a bit stuck, don’t worry. It’s perfectly normal! 

And before you throw in the towel, take a moment to revamp your profile–even small tweaks can lead to better connections. Plus, there could be features on the app that you have missed and haven’t tried yet, so why not give them a shot?

Let’s review our Bumble basics and give your dating game the boost it deserves with these tried-and-tested ways.

Before diving into Bumble’s fun features, make sure your basics are covered. Fill out all six photo slots with recent, high-quality images, starting with a clear, smiling photo of yourself. Love at first swipe may be possible with those pictures!

Next, don’t skimp on your bio—make it more than a couple of sentences! Use this space to showcase your personality and give a glimpse into who you are and what you're seeking. 

A good tip from Bumble’s guide is to think about the type of people you want to attract. Want someone who can make you laugh? Add a pun. Movie buff? Share your go-to film genre! By emphasizing your unique interests, you’re more likely to attract people who share your vibe!

Pro tip: Skip the group shots as your first photo!  Instead, go for something that highlights your hobbies and lifestyle, and remember, including your fur baby is always a crowd-pleaser!

Basic Info Badges provide quick insights into who you are! They appear under “My Basics” on your profile and cover essential details like your job, education, location and even more personal preferences like your views on religion or politics. If you’re into astrology, you can even showcase your zodiac sign—perfect for avoiding any potential red flags!

You can fill out as many or as few badges as you’re comfortable with, but the more you complete, the higher your chances of connecting with like-minded individuals.

After Basic Info Badges, we have the Interest Badges. To keep things dynamic,
