Bumble doesn’t show read receipts, so you won't see if someone has opened or read your message. We want conversations to feel relaxed and low-pressure, which is why we’ve kept things simple and left out features like this.

If you’re waiting for a reply, try to give it a bit of time. The other person might be busy, thinking about what to say, or simply hasn’t checked the app yet.

And if the timer is running low, you can use Extend to add more time and keep the connection open, without the pressure for them to respond right away.
