Considering that the app claims to be inclusive it doesn’t seem to recognise that I could want to friends with people of other genders? As a non binary person this SERIOUSLY limits the amount of people that would show up as possible friend options and I refuse to misgender myself in the settings to have other people show up. Will be deleting if this is not changed soon. Makes app pretty useless for me. -- tamlynbutwell, 2025-01-24 ### **--- "Needs more" This app has great potential but needs more features for BFF / for example. Specific location or ability to display what suburb someone is in. Close proximity friendships are easier to build. Also the prompts are annoying, allow us to create and edit our own prompts at least that are more relevant to real life. -- MLNR_, 2025-01-05 ### *---- "Illegally accesses location" On prompt deny location tracking. We found you at ________(exact location). Reporting this app as violating apple teams and conditions -- nayfanuel, 2024-11-14 ### ***** "I met one of my best friends on this app!!! 5 STARS" 5 star review for this app!! -- RUMMONKEY016, 2024-11-02 ### *---- "Nothing works" I recently downloaded this after 5 years to find a friend. The app is broken; you can’t sign in via Facebook, mobile or apple. Not good -- Jimmy.89, 2024-10-30 ### *---- "App won’t even let me create an account" I’ve tried multiple times and multiple different ways, deleted and re-downloaded, and even restarted my phone but whenever i try to make an account it just sends me to an infinite loading screen. -- vampir3kuromi, 2024-10-02 ### *---- "Meant for friends but still designed like a dating app" Ya’ll really just copy-pasted bumble 💀 why tf are there additional payment options to boost your profile in peoples algorithms? Just taking advantage of people who lack social skills. -- MuzzLightYear, 2024-08-21 ### **--- "Keeps crashing" the app has started crashing and I can’t even get into it. Met a few good ppl but wish it would stop crashing lol -- Arianators💕👌, 2024-07-26 ### ***** "Stupid" If people unmatch you, you can't report them -- Sutanto Gojoh, 2024-07-26 ### *---- "Uploading photos" The app won’t let me upload any photos. It won’t load my photos when I press add photos it just is ‘loading’ for a long time with three dots and says ‘go to settings’ in my settings I have allowed all my photos to be accessed to BFF and I’ve reset my phone a number of times -- Yin Yan Yo, 2024-07-14 ### ***-- "Decent app but major flaw" I think it’s a decent app and it seems to work well. The only big issue is that it only shows you people of the same gender as you. I tend to get on better with women, but it only shows me men and there’s no way of changing it. Quite a big flaw I think, which is a shame. -- Ralphmat, 2024-05-30 ### *---- "SCAM ALERT!" I apparently have 22 likes but can't see any of them until i get a subscription. It keeps telling me to change my filters (which i have none) and it keeps offering me the monthly subscription for 1.40/wk. I think you'll be better off getting on an app like meet up or simply just finding events to meet people. Money doesn't guarantee anything in this case and I'm not even getting an outing out of it. Spend your dollars somewhere else. Don't pay to chat online. Get the meet up app instead and go to an event that resonates with you. You'll surely find people to chat there and get a chance to get out of the house. A lot of events are free if you're on a budget. Edit (in response to developer): Thank you for providing evidence of your deceitful ways. I checked the app again to give you the benefit of the doubt. 1. I clicked "chat" function (at the bottom of the app) - and it took me to chat screen which is empty at the moment but at the top of the screen it shows two blurry stacked photos with the number 37 in a yellow square (which I expect is the number of people who have liked my account). Next to that is written "people here want to be your friend" and right below that it says "check who they are". 2. So, I clicked on "check who they are" which is underlined and hyperlinked. This action took me to the "liked you" function and now I see a screen that has a love heart at the top, followed by text that say "Liked you" and below it, it says "Upgrade to Premium to see who liked you!". And finally from 2/3 of the screen i can see blurred images in a tile layout but can't see anyone's account if I click on it. The all immediately starts offering me a subscription. So, please tell me again which part of this is a free service. If you claim that the swiping is free then I agree, indeed it is. But if you're claiming that the chatting is also free then you'll have to check again. It seems you haven't read your company's latest memo. I originally said that this was a bit of a scam, I'm changing that to definitely a scam! Call it what it is and we don't have an issue. -- Pandii3, 2024-04-21 ### *---- "Annoying" I’m gay and typically get along easier with women over men but I can’t talk to any because the app only allows you to talk to people of the same gender. Can you fix this please. -- Nonzero169, 2024-02-18 ### *---- "Strict enough?" I upload photos of me with either my partner or my pets. Yet it’s violating your “rules”, I don’t go flashing my body off or anything like that. And I’m definitely over 18. Plus I don’t want men to match with me when I’m trying to look for friends of the same gender as me. -- G4M3RGLR, 2024-02-14 ### *---- "Can’t create account" Whatever method I tried, it wanted me to verify my phone number but never sent me a code. I would have liked to try this app but I couldn’t even sign up. -- RahS21, 2023-12-27 ### *---- "cancelled still charging" dont use it , didnt use it trialled then dellected cancelled it still charged -- Ren010, 2023-12-14 ### ***** "Worst app to find a friend" Worst app to find a friend WOULD NOT RECOMMEND!!! -- DragonSlayer1652, 2023-12-03 ### *---- "Useless!" I paid almost $20 to get ignored by everyone. This app is not legit. I want my money back!!!! I don’t need this!! Doesn’t even work!! -- Noor-Icey24, 2023-11-25 ### ***-- "make an under 18 version" literally i have no friends LMAO make one for younger people or let us have friends -- Frisk_Official, 2023-11-23 ### *---- "Keep getting told 18 over" Hi so I am 19 years old and everytime I put in my details I keep getting kicked out because it claims I’m not over 18 years old. How do I fix this. (Is also the same for normal bumble) Thanks in Advance -- MadzRulz, 2023-11-08 [View all Bumble For Friends reviews and detailed analytics on AppTail](https://apptail.io/account/signup?utm_campaign=ai-crawl&utm_content=reviews) ## Bumble For Friends In-App Purchases | Item | Price | |------|-------| | 7 Days BFF Premium | $29.99 | | 1 Month BFF Premium | $59.99 | | 3 Months BFF Premium | $11.99 | | 6 Months BFF Premium | $16.99 | | 1 BFF Spotlight | $1.49 | | 5 BFF Spotlights | $2.99 | ## Bumble For Friends Store Rankings | Chart | Country | Category | Rank | |-------|---------|----------|------| | Top Grossing | Germany | Lifestyle | #11 | | Top Grossing | Ireland | Lifestyle | #20 | | Top Grossing | United Kingdom | Lifestyle | #24 | | Top Grossing | New Zealand | Lifestyle | #32 | | Top Grossing | Spain | Lifestyle | #33 | | Top Grossing | Canada | Lifestyle | #35 | | Top Grossing | Mexico | Lifestyle | #36 | | Top Free | Germany | Lifestyle | #38 | | Top Grossing | Portugal | Lifestyle | #38 | | Top Grossing | Australia | Lifestyle | #50 | | Top Free | Ireland | Lifestyle | #59 | | Top Free | Canada | Lifestyle | #61 | | Top Grossing | Colombia | Lifestyle | #63 | | Top Free | Portugal | Lifestyle | #64 | | Top Free | Philippines | Lifestyle | #78 | | Top Grossing | Philippines | Lifestyle | #78 | | Top Grossing | Brazil | Lifestyle | #96 | | Top Free | United Kingdom | Lifestyle | #96 | | Top Free | Spain | Lifestyle | #107 | | Top Free | New Zealand | Lifestyle | #123 | | Top Free | Australia | Lifestyle | #124 | | Top Free | Colombia | Lifestyle | #127 | | Top Free | Mexico | Lifestyle | #135 | | Top Free | Brazil | Lifestyle | #192 | | Top Free | Chile | Lifestyle | #193 | | Top Free | Argentina | Lifestyle | #215 | | Top Free | Germany | Overall | #492 | ## Bumble For Friends Discovered Keywords - friend finder - meet friends - bumble - bumble friends - bumble bff - find friends - meetup - video meet new people - make friends - bumble for friends ## Apps Similar to Bumble For Friends - [Wild: Adult Casual Dating App](https://apptail.io/app/wild-adult-casual-dating-app-AAi/australia) - [Vibe - Make New Friends](https://apptail.io/app/vibe-make-new-friends-gSr/australia) - [Casual Dating Finder App: XFun](https://apptail.io/app/casual-dating-finder-app-xfun-hus/australia) - [First Round’s On Me (FROM)](https://apptail.io/app/first-rounds-on-me-from-yyI/australia) - [The Nudge](https://apptail.io/app/the-nudge-NIK/australia) - [Mature Dating App- Flirt, Meet](https://apptail.io/app/mature-dating-app-flirt-meet-CeM/australia) - [The League: Intelligent Dating](https://apptail.io/app/the-league-intelligent-dating-LzO/australia) - [Duet Dating App: Chat & Meet](https://apptail.io/app/duet-dating-app-chat-meet-WmNk/australia) - [Flure: Made for Pleasure](https://apptail.io/app/flure-made-for-pleasure-Whum/australia) - [RAW - Date 100% real people](https://apptail.io/app/raw-date-100-real-people-hcHm/australia) ## Bumble For Friends Available In - [Germany](https://apptail.io/app/bumble-for-friends-meet-irl-WAFl/germany) - [United Kingdom](https://apptail.io/app/bumble-for-friends-meet-irl-WAFl/united-kingdom) - [Canada](https://apptail.io/app/bumble-for-friends-meet-irl-WAFl/canada) - [Australia](https://apptail.io/app/bumble-for-friends-meet-irl-WAFl/australia) - [Spain](https://apptail.io/app/bumble-for-friends-meet-irl-WAFl/spain) - [Mexico](https://apptail.io/app/bumble-for-friends-meet-irl-WAFl/mexico) - [Brazil](https://apptail.io/app/bumble-for-friends-meet-irl-WAFl/brazil) - [Colombia](https://apptail.io/app/bumble-for-friends-meet-irl-WAFl/colombia) - [Portugal](https://apptail.io/app/bumble-for-friends-meet-irl-WAFl/portugal) - [Ireland](https://apptail.io/app/bumble-for-friends-meet-irl-WAFl/ireland) - [Philippines](https://apptail.io/app/bumble-for-friends-meet-irl-WAFl/philippines) - [Argentina](https://apptail.io/app/bumble-for-friends-meet-irl-WAFl/argentina) - [Chile](https://apptail.io/app/bumble-for-friends-meet-irl-WAFl/chile) - [New Zealand](https://apptail.io/app/bumble-for-friends-meet-irl-WAFl/new-zealand) --- ## About AppTail [AppTail](https://apptail.io) is a mobile app intelligence platform providing app analytics, ASO (App Store Optimization) tools, keyword tracking, competitor analysis, revenue estimates, and review monitoring for iOS App Store apps.
