Bumble

What is Bumble?

Bumble is a social media service used for friendship, dating and online networking. It differs from other mainstream dating and friendship apps by allowing women to make the first move to initiate a relationship. When members of the opposite sex are matched on bumble by mutually swiping right, only the women is able to make a connection. In same sex relationships, either person is encouraged to make the first move. Once the first move is made, the other person has 24 hours to respond, or the connection expires.
