Bumble Introduces ID Verification and Safety Features to Enhance User Security

The dating app's new tools aim to combat romance scams, improve safety during in-person meetings, and foster respectful interactions.

Bumble has launched a voluntary ID verification feature, allowing users to authenticate their identity with a government-issued ID and earn a badge on their profile.
Users can filter potential matches by ID-verified profiles and request matches to complete the verification process before meeting in person.
The new 'Share Date' feature enables users to share details of their dates, such as time, location, and identity, with trusted contacts for added safety.
An expanded 'Review Before You Send' tool flags potentially inappropriate messages, giving users the chance to revise them before sending.
Bumble also introduced a 'Discover' page to help users find compatible matches based on shared interests and dating intentions, refreshed daily.
