Consider other options first. While Bumble states that they won't punish or shadowban you for deleting and recreating your account, they may issue you a warning for resetting your profile multiple times.[1] Recreating your account can also cause Bumble members who've seen you before to think you're spamming, which can lead to more negative swipes.- If you're having a tough time getting matches with your current profile, try improving your bio and selecting better photos.
- Incorporate inviting prompts into your profile to spark better conversations.[2]
- Add basic info badges to give users a better idea of who you really are.[3]
Disconnect your Facebook account from Bumble. If you connected your Bumble account to Facebook, you'll want to break the link between accounts before resetting Bumble. Here's how:- Open the Facebook app and tap the three-line menu.
- Tap Settings & Privacy and then Settings.[4]
- Scroll down to Security and tap Apps and Websites.
- Select Bumble and tap Remove.
- Tap Remove to confirm.

Delete your Bumble account. Deleting your account is easy:- If you subscribe to Bumble Boost, you'll have to cancel your membership first.
- Open the Bumble app and tap the profile icon at the bottom-left corner.[5]
- Tap the gear icon.
- Scroll down and tap Delete account at the bottom.
- Follow the on-screen instructions to delete your account.
Remove the Bumble app from your iPhone, iPad, or Android. While there's no hard rule about removing the app after deleting your account, you'll want to wait at least 24 hours before signing back up for a new account. Delete the app and wait at least a day (maybe even a few days, if you're willing) before starting the process again.- Your 24-hour or more Bumble break is a great opportunity to work on gathering new photos and drafting an irresistible bio for your new profile!
- You can reinstall the Bumble app easily by downloading it from the App Store (iPhone/iPad) or Play Store (Android).
Recreate your Bumble account with new and improved content. When you sign back up for Bumble, it's best to use new profile photos and a fully refreshed bio to get the most of out of your newbie boost. Recycling the same content from your old account likely won't aid in improving your matches, and it might even bring negative attention to your new account from people who've seen you in the past. Happy swiping!
