So, you're ready to break up with Bumble. Founded in 2014, Bumble changed the dating game by letting women make the first move. But maybe the game is getting old, or you've found your person. Or maybe you're just tired of the endless swiping, a feeling that's all over TikTok right now. Whatever the reason, canceling should be easy. This guide covers how to cancel on iOS, Android, and desktop. With plans ranging from $16.99 to $49.99, you could save up to $280 a year by ending your subscription. Let's get that money back in your pocket.
How to Cancel Bumble on iPhone (iOS)
If you subscribed to Bumble Boost or Premium on your iPhone, your subscription is managed directly by Apple. You can't cancel it from within the Bumble app, which is a common point of confusion.
1 Open Your iPhone Settings
First, find and tap the gray Settings icon on your home screen. This is where all Apple subscriptions are managed, not inside the Bumble app itself.
2 Tap Your Apple ID
At the very top of the Settings screen, you'll see your name and profile picture. Tap on this banner to access your Apple ID, iCloud, and media settings.
3 Go to Subscriptions
On the Apple ID screen, tap on Subscriptions. You'll see a list of all your active and expired app subscriptions. It might take a second to load if you have a lot.
4 Find and Select Bumble
Scroll through the list until you find Bumble. Tap on it to see the subscription details and renewal options.
5 Cancel the Subscription
Tap the red Cancel Subscription button at the bottom of the screen. You'll need to confirm your choice. Your premium features will remain active until the end of the current billing cycle.
How to Cancel Bumble on Android
For Android users, your Bumble subscription is tied to your Google Play account. The process is straightforward, but you have to do it through the Play Store, not the Bumble app.
1 Open the Google Play Store
Find and open the Google Play Store app on your Android device. Make sure you're signed into the same Google account you used to purchase the subscription.
2 Access Your Profile Menu
Tap on your profile icon or initial in the top-right corner of the screen. This will open a menu with several options.
3 Navigate to Payments & Subscriptions
From the menu, select Payments & subscriptions. This is where Google manages all your recurring charges for apps and services.
4 Select Subscriptions
Tap on Subscriptions to see a list of all your active subscriptions through the Play Store. Find Bumble in this list.
5 Cancel Your Bumble Subscription
Tap on Bumble, and then select Cancel subscription. Google will ask you for a reason, just pick one and confirm. Your access will continue until the current paid period ends.
How to Cancel Bumble on Desktop or Laptop
If you subscribed directly on the Bumble website using a credit card, this is the only way to cancel. This method often works best if you're having trouble with the mobile apps.
1 Go to the Bumble Website
Open your web browser and navigate to Bumble.com. Log in to your account using your credentials.
2 Access Your Profile
Once you're logged in, click on your profile picture located in the top-left corner of the screen. This will open your profile settings.
3 Find Your Subscription Settings
In the menu that appears, look for an option like Manage your Boost or Manage your Premium. The wording can sometimes change, which is a little annoying. Click on it.
4 Unsubscribe
You should now see your active subscription details. Click the Unsubscribe button located below your subscription information. Bumble will ask you to confirm the cancellation on the next screen.
Before You Cancel: What You Should Know
- Refunds Are Unlikely: Bumble's terms of service state that all purchases are non-refundable. If you cancel, you can use the premium features until the billing period ends, but you won't get your money back for the time remaining.
- Your Profile Stays Active: Canceling your subscription does not delete your Bumble profile. You'll just revert to a free account. To remove your profile completely, you must go through the account deletion process separately.
- No Pausing Option: Unfortunately, Bumble does not offer a way to pause your subscription. You either have an active subscription or you don't.
Having Trouble Cancelling Your Bumble Subscription?
It can be frustrating when you can't find the cancel button. Here are a few things to try:
- Check Your Purchase Method: You MUST cancel on the same platform you used to subscribe. If you bought it on your iPhone, you can't cancel on the website, and vice versa. This is the most common issue.
- Try a Different Device: Sometimes the app is just buggy. Try logging into Bumble.com on a desktop or laptop computer. The website interface is often more reliable for account management.
- Clear Your Cache: If the website is acting up, clear your browser's cache and cookies or try using an incognito window to log in and cancel.
- Contact Support Directly: If all else fails, you can contact Bumble's support team through their online contact form. Be prepared to provide your user ID and billing information. It might take a day or two to get a response.
