The solution could be as easy as restarting the app or as advanced as needing to contact Bumble's support team. Sign in on another device.

This might require downloading the Bumble app for iOS or downloading the Bumble app for Android if you don't already have it on your alternative device. Try signing into your Bumble account to see if it loads properly.

If it does, the problem might be your device. Close the Bumble app on iOS or close the Bumble app for Android, then reopen it.

Bumble only has two account sign-in methods—by phone number and by Facebook. If you signed into your Bumble account only to find that your profile is completely blank and your connections are gone, this problem can usually be fixed by logging out and choosing the other sign-in method. Check Bumble's Downdetector page.

If you can't find any sign of widespread issues or an outage from Bumble's servers, then the issue might be on your end. Update the Bumble Android app or update the Bumble iOS app.

Restarting seems to fix many computer problems because it helps clear everything that's running in the background and free up your device's resources. If you're being asked to pay for Bumble Boost when you've already paid, contact Bumble's support team. It's likely that you're Bumble Boost subscription is not associated with the current profile or account you're using, so if you were using Bumble Boost and deleted your account to create a new one, your Bumble Boost subscription won't be carried over to that new profile.

Bumble support can carry your previous subscription over to your current account. If you didn't delete your profile to create a new one, you may have signed in using the wrong method (via Facebook instead of via your phone number, or vice versa).

Beeline is a premium feature that's part of Bumble Boost, which shows you the users who've already liked you on the app. Since the number and quality of likes you get are based on search criteria, it's a good idea to beef up your profile by filling out as much information as you can. On your profile tab, just tap the pencil icon on your profile picture to edit your profile.

To increase your Bumble matches, fill out your profile as much as possible, and don't forget to include a few photos. Adjust the filters in your settings to get more relevant matches, and expand your preferred location distance. You won't get matches if you never swipe right, so don't be too picky.
