Your photos and videos are the first thing people see, so choosing the right ones can make a big difference! Here are some photo tips to help you stand out and attract genuine matches.
- Use clear, high-quality photos or videos: Aim for bright, well-lit photos and videos where your face is clearly visible. You want people to see you for who you really are, so avoid heavy filters or overly edited pics.
-
Show off what makes you, you: Choose photos and videos that highlight different aspects of who you are:
- A hobby (hiking, painting, cooking)
- A social moment with friends
- A pet (if it's yours!)
- Travel or adventure pics
- Add more than 1: You can upload up to 6 photos and videos, but quality matters! 4-6 photos work best.
- Turn on Best Photo: Best Photo checks your photos and puts the most popular one first. You can turn this on or off by tapping the toggle underneath your profile pictures.
-
Follow Bumble’s guidelines: If you’re unsure, check them out.
Note: You can upload JPG or PNG photos up to 128 MB, and ideally, they should be 1024 x 1024 pixels.
