While apps are supposed to make life easier, dating apps are often a challenge when it comes to finding someone you truly connect with. The focus always seems to be more on physical appearance instead of personality. Moreover, the challenge the coming across the real personality is a whole other challenge altogether.

Bumble, with its online dating cum networking setup, has managed to bridge this gap where people get to know about the personality of the person on the other side of the screen much better than other dating apps we have today.

It appears Bumble is now aiming to work more towards allowing people to connect based on personalities and not only appearance. The app is introducing a new feature that lets users search for matches based on shared interests.

To use this tool, users just need to click “narrow your search,” followed by “advanced filters,” then select “filter by your interests.” Each user can display up to five interests on their profile.

However, there’s a chance a shared interest might not appear if someone hasn’t chosen it for their profile.

Bumble has recently added over 30 new interest options, so users can be selective rather than choosing them all just to cast a wider net. If no matches are available with those selected interests, users can choose to see other profiles outside their filters.

Many of the interest options are lighthearted like memes, tacos or travelling.

Some, however, offer a deeper glimpse with interests such as mindfulness, slow living and therapy. While it’s not a deep dive into someone’s personality, it offers a bit more insight than just a photo.

Moreover, Bumble is expanding its Opening Moves feature, introduced in April.

The Opening Moves feature allows users to set a specific question for new matches to respond to, instead of crafting a new opener each time. Now, users can set up to three Opening Moves and they can even include images with captions to make the conversation starter more engaging.
