What is Bumble BFF? Everything to Know Right Here!

Making friends as an adult is not the same as what it used to be when you were younger. When you were in school, connecting with other people on a friendship level is easy and sometimes even necessary to survive. But when you get a little older, people your age are busy with other things. It can be marriage, having children, or careers. Creating new social connections does not feel natural at this point of your life.

Bumble has a lot of other cool features in its pockets aside from its traditional online dating service offerings. It also provides you with a platform to find friends, or build your professional connections!

For starters, the "BFF" in Bumble BFF means "Bumble For Friends." This is the place where you can find platonic connection in your area. Active users of the Bumble Bff is after intimate and affectionate friendships, but nothing sexual.

For dating sites to work, building a strong community is key to having happy individual members. If you think about it, your friends and people you connect with in a platonic sense are the ones who support you and celebrate life with you. Whether it's a celebration, a loss, or even a breakup, it's your friends who will be sitting down with you and talk things through with you.

That is why, Bumble puts a heavy weight on building friendships, aside from romantic relationships. Bumble has created a way for its members to connect not only with potential partners, but with new friends too. They believe that using the same app for finding romance is a great tool to expand your circle of friends.

It is still Bumble, but for Besties!

Bumble has three modes that you can alternately use in the same app:

• Bumble Date - you use this mode to find a partner on the site. Date is the primary mode of Bumble and is the most popular.
• Bumble Bizz - this is supposed to be the place to find positive and empowering professional connections. At Bizz, you can find an internship to a mentor, or even a business partner to expand your professional network.
• Bumble BFF - using this mode, you can find a companion that's non-romantic, nor business-like—find a new friend for life, a work out buddy, or even a roommate!

A pro-tip: if you are in a relationship but still want to use the Bumble BFF and Bizz mode on your phone, you can choose to remove the Date mode from your app altogether! Here is how you can do it:

1. Go to the home screen.
2. Click the gray "X" on the upper left corner of the Bumble Date option and it will be removed.

Having the Bumble Date mode on your phone may feel weird if you already have a partner. After all, Bumble Date is made for singles who are after meaningful relationships.

The Bumble BFF is in a blue color theme. Just like in the Date mode, you have the power to swipe right profile pictures of people who you like and swipe left the profile pictures of people who you don't feel that much.

To give your future besties a glimpse of your personality, you can customize your Bumble BFF profile. You can indicate there the reason why you are using this mode, and link your Spotify and Instagram accounts.

Existing and new users can start using the Bumble BFF mode differently. To start connecting on Bumble BFF, here are the steps:

As you’re swiping through Bumble BFF, spend time reading what others wrote about themselves. That’s how you’ll know if you have something in common and want to match in the first place. The experience is one of a kind since not many dating apps offer this kind of feature. Maximize Bumble by using all different modes. Do not forget to make meaningful connections using the BFF mode.
