What Makes Bumble Bios Unique?

Each dating app has its own unique vibe and purpose. Some (like Tinder) are more suitable for casual relationships, and others (like Bumble) are more long-term relationship-oriented. This is why a bio that works well on Tinder, might not do so well on Bumble.

To choose bios that are more likely to work on Bumble, you first need to know all of the things that set Bumble apart from other dating apps.

To help you with this, we’ve made a brief list of all of the key differences that set Bumble apart from the others:

• On Bumble, users can add depth to their profiles with prompt answers by completing sentences such as "I get way too excited about…" or "My real-life superpower is…";
• The app also lets users complete their profiles with display badges showing their physical traits, political preferences, workout routines, and so forth;
• Bumble users tend to value relationship goals more than users on dating apps centered around casual hookups.
• Bumble has a women-first approach to online dating- it’s up to girls to initiate all conversations.

Now that we know what makes Bumble unique, let's learn more about what it takes to create a good Bumble bio.

5 Tips For Creating a Good Bumble Bio

Creating a good Bumble bio is an art, but one that can be mastered as long as you know what you should (and shouldn't) do.

Before looking at the big no-nos of Bumble bios, let's take a look at some of the best tips for creating Bumble profiles that will actually take your dating game to the next level.

1. Be Yourself

"Be yourself" sounds like a clichè recommendation, but it's an essential aspect of creating the perfect Bumble bio.

If, for example, you present yourself as an outdoorsy type on Bumble, but all you really enjoy doing is staying at home playing video games, chances are your next match will dump you five minutes into your first date.

The ideal Bumble bio should introduce you to potential matches for who you are. So, make sure it showcases your personality and describes your tastes and intentions as honestly as possible.

Another advantage of being yourself on your Bumble bio is that it contributes to making it more original, which is a big plus!

According to a 2022 study on the effects of originality in online dating profile texts, "originality positively affects perceptions of intelligence and sense of humor, which improve impressions of attractiveness and boost dating intention."

2. Keep It "Short, Sweet, and Lighthearted"

When a Redditor asked girls what they thought makes a great Bumble bio for a guy, the most-voted recommendation stated "Keep your bio short, sweet, and lighthearted." But what does this mean exactly?

Comment by u/Silential from discussion in Bumble

"Short" means that Bumble bios shouldn't be too lengthy. It makes sense because, with so many options, it's unlikely that your potential matches will ever sit through huge profile descriptions. Remember that you're writing for a dating app, not creating your CV!

"Sweet" and "lighthearted" refer to the tone of Bumble bios. If your bio is too smug, it can be a huge turnoff for potential dates. If it's too formal, you risk coming across as a boring person.

3. Take Full Advantage of Bumble Prompts

On Reddit, we have also found that Bumble users like it when bios "Have something in there for me to talk about and ask you about." But is this compatible with creating "short" bios?

Bumble prompts are a great way of going into detail regarding your tastes, background, and aspirations without compromising on your short, sweet bio.

In addition to helping potential matches have a clearer idea of who you are, Bumble prompts are awesome for inspiring meaningful conversations. Make the most of them!

4. Make It 30% About Your Future Partner

A study on converting online contact into a first date determined that there's a golden ratio to a great dating app bio. The formula? Make it 70% about yourself and 30% about your future partner.

Commenting on the science behind dating profiles, BBC stated that "profiles with this balance [the 70:30 ratio] receive the most replies because people have more confidence to drop you a line."

We couldn't agree more! After all, when you see a Bumble bio describing the match of their dreams as someone who's just like you, you will feel like you'll have a better chance to land a date. As a result, you will simply swipe right more often.

5. Mix Confidence and Humility

On Reddit, we have also found a recommendation that sums up brilliantly how Bumble bios should mix confidence and humility: "Tell them how good your life is without directly saying it."

Comment by u/Silential from discussion in Bumble

The point here is that you shouldn't portray yourself as the world's most desirable single, but that you should also avoid belittling yourself.

If your Bumble bio says something like "You're probably not good enough for me, but you can give it a try", it is bound to put off potential matches who don't have the time, disposition, or self-confidence needed to deal with your conceited self-importance…

On the other hand, if your Bumble bio reads "Please swipe right, I cannot get any match on this app…", you won't exactly turn anyone on, will you?

To create a great Bumble bio, look for the perfect balance between confidence and humility.

Bumble Bios: The 4 Big No-Nos

Now that you know what to do to create awesome Bumble bios, it's time to learn about what you should NOT do…

1. Don't Tell Them to Swipe Left

There's enough tragedy in the world. So, why on Earth should Bumble bios add up to the negativity?

On Reddit's r/Bumble, we found that many Bumble users hate bios with "negative spins", and it's easy to see why.

Comment by u/pman6 from discussion in Bumble

Bumble bios with negative stuff like "Swipe left if you…" or "Ignore me if you're not X tall" are big no-nos because they focus on negative traits instead of positive ones. If the best thing you have to say about yourself is "I won't date short guys", your profile will end up being as interesting as a trip to the DMV…

Reddit user Buttery-crumpet summed it up perfectly: "If you tell me to swipe left, I will."

2. "Don't Make Your Entire Bio a Big Joke"

See the title? Well, that's another Reddit quote (sourced here) that hits the bullseye when it comes to dating tips.

Comment by u/Puzzleheaded_Line210 from discussion in Bumble

While humor makes you more attractive, Bumble bios featuring nothing but a joke are often snubbed by users who are looking for something more serious.

Considering that Bumble focuses on long-term relationships more than the average dating app, being just funny on the platform can be especially harmful.

Some humor is okay (and recommended), but please don't fall for the trap of turning your Bumble bio into some sort of big joke.

3. Avoid Lists of Requirements

We have seen that a good Bumble bio should follow the 70:30 ratio, but what should those 30% be about?

When describing your ideal date, avoid making a list of requirements with stuff like "You need to have a car to get a date with me", "Smokers not allowed", or "Swipe left if you're not into X or Y."

Sure, you should be honest about who you're looking for on Bumble. But that doesn't mean you need to mention all of your red flags in a grocery-list-type format…

A better alternative is to focus on more positive and generic traits. Try writing stuff like "I'm looking for someone with a steady job", "Attracted to people with a healthy lifestyle", or "Swipe right if you're a cinema fan."

This comment, on a Reddit thread on automatic Bumble no-nos, kind of wraps up why lists of requirements can be a pain in the neck:

"For me, it’s a profile that’s completely negative. I don’t want this kind of person, I don’t like this, no that. The person could be incredibly nice and sweet and everything but a profile like that just completely puts me off, whereas if it were the opposites and someone was saying I do want this, I like this in people and so on I would be all for it."

4. Don't Make Grammar and Spelling Mistakes

Last but not least, avoid making grammar and spelling mistakes in your Bumble bio. No, your future dates don't need to be poets, but they should at least know how to write!

Making grammar and spelling mistakes portrays you as lazy, ignorant, or both, so please avoid them altogether.
