What are Basic filters and Advanced Filters?

Filters help you curate who shows up in your 'People' tab, making your Bumble experience even better. Here’s how they work:

Basic filters:

You can choose filters to see the people you’d most like to connect with. These filters include age, distance, if their profile is verified, languages they speak, and interests. You can change these at any time by going to Basic filters.

Advanced Filters:

Advanced Filters are part of Bumble Premium, and subscribers can choose an unlimited number of them. Just remember, you can only select a filter if you’ve added this information to your profile (e.g., if you haven’t shown your stance on smoking, you can’t filter for non-smokers).

Each of our three modes (Date, BFF, and Bizz) have unique filter options. So whether a date, a new friend, or a business connection, you can find exactly what you’re looking for.

How to set Advanced Filters:

  1. Head to 'People'.
  2. Tap the filters icon in the top right corner.
  3. Select the  'Advanced Filters' tab.
  4. Choose the filters you’re interested in applying.

Remember: The more filters you apply, the less people you're likely to see in the People tab, and Liked You tab (for Premium subscribers). If things seem a little quiet, try adjusting your filters to see more people.
