Are you heading to a conference in another city or country and want to network while you’re there? Moving to a new city and looking to make new friends? Or packing your bags for a dream vacation and hoping to connect with locals? Whatever your reason for traveling, you can use Bumble’s Travel Mode to start building connections in your destination before you even arrive.
By subscribing to Bumble Premium, you unlock access to Travel Mode, allowing you to choose the city where you’d like your profile to be seen. Your location will be displayed as the city center of your chosen destination (precise location within the city is not selectable), and an indicator will clearly show other users that you’re in Travel Mode. This feature is perfect for planning ahead and ensuring you can start meeting people as soon as you arrive.
Here’s how to activate Travel Mode:
- Open your Bumble settings by tapping the grey gear icon in the top right corner of the app.
- Scroll down to the Location section and select “Travel.”
- Confirm that you want to use Travel Mode.
- Search for and select the city where you want to appear.
Your location will be set to the new city for a duration of one week. If you need to deactivate Travel Mode sooner, just follow these simple steps:
- Open your settings by tapping the grey gear icon in the top right corner of the app.
- Tap the “Travel” button.
- Select “Current Location” to revert to your actual location.
With Bumble Travel Mode, you can seamlessly integrate socializing into your travel plans, making every trip an opportunity to expand your network and meet interesting people. Whether for business or pleasure, Bumble Travel Mode is your ideal companion for making the most of your travels.
