How to Delete Your Bumble Account

## How to Delete Your Bumble Account If you want to permanently delete your Bumble profile and data, follow these steps. Note that deleting your account is different from just deleting the app. ### Step 1: Cancel Any Active Subscription First Before deleting your account, cancel any active Bumble Premium subscription through your device's app store (Apple App Store or Google Play Store). Deleting your Bumble account does not automatically cancel your subscription billing. ### Step 2: Open the Bumble App Launch the Bumble app on your phone and make sure you are logged into the account you want to delete. ### Step 3: Go to Settings Tap on your **profile icon** in the bottom-left corner, then tap the **gear icon** to open Settings. ### Step 4: Scroll to Delete Account Scroll down to the bottom of the Settings page. You will see the **Delete Account** option. ### Step 5: Select Delete Account Tap **Delete Account**. Bumble will ask you why you are leaving and may offer alternatives like snoozing your account (hiding your profile temporarily without deleting it). ### Step 6: Confirm Deletion If you are certain, confirm the deletion. Your profile, matches, conversations, and all account data will be permanently removed. This action cannot be undone. ### Alternative: Snooze Your Account If you are not sure about permanent deletion, consider **Snooze Mode** instead: - Your profile becomes hidden from potential matches. - Your existing matches and conversations are preserved. - You can reactivate at any time. - Go to **Settings > Snooze** to enable this feature. ### Important Notes - **Account deletion is permanent.** You cannot recover your profile, matches, or conversation history. - **Cancel subscriptions separately.** Deleting your account does not stop Apple or Google from billing you for Bumble Premium. - **Verification data**: Bumble may retain some data for legal and safety purposes even after account deletion, as described in their privacy policy. - **Waiting period**: You may need to wait before creating a new account with the same phone number. - If you are deleting due to safety concerns, consider also **blocking** specific users before deletion and reporting any harassment to Bumble's support team.
