Bumble recently released a new sticker that shows up on recently made Bumble profiles. So when you make a new account and join Bumble, there will be a tag that says “New Here” on your profile.
Not many Bumble users know what this sticker means since it is a fairly new feature. More importantly, if you do have this feature, you might want to know how long it stays on your profile.
If you are in the same position, then this article will tell you everything you need to know about this new feature and how old an account has to be until the sticker leaves.
The main reason people want to know how long the sticker stays is because they want to match with people less experienced on the app as they tend to be seen as more normal.
How Long Does New Here Stay on Bumble?
When someone makes a new account, the New Here sticker will show for the next 14 days. When those 14 days are over, it will go and people won’t see it on your profile anymore.
Bumble mainly introduces this sticker so people are more considerate of you on the app since you are new. They will be more patient with you as you may still be finding your way through the app.
When someone feels like they are being treated better since they are a new member of Bumble, they are more likely to stay on the app for longer since people are treating them better due to being more considerate.
From a user experience standpoint, it also gives users something to talk about and find more common ground on.
What Does New Here on Bumble Mean?
New Here on Bumble just means that someone has recently just joined the app with a new account. If they have had the account for more than 14 days then the New Here tag won’t show.
This badge will be seen by others until those 14 days are over. After that, the account will look like every other account on the app.
When someone is new on the app, they don’t have much experience on the app and are still trying to find their way around the app.
People are also more likely to match with a new member of the app because they have a better chance with them as they haven’t been bombarded by matches yet.
Whatever the reason, if you see a “New Here” badge, someone has been on the app for less than fourteen days—so don’t get too worried if they haven’t matched with you yet as they may still be trying to figure out the app.
If you are the person with the badge then don’t get too worried if you haven’t received that many matches yet. In most cases, the Bumble algorithm.
It could also be that some people are put off that you are new since it shows that you may be hesitant to take that leap with online dating.
Bumble mainly introduced this feature to make you aware of fake profiles and scammers.
Is New Here Accurate?
Yes, it’s accurate. Bubmeles software can detect when you first make an account and will count fourteen days until it’s over.
If you see this badge then you can guarantee that these accounts will be new.
If you really want up-to-date badges on your swipe queue, then force close the app and go back onto Bumble. Keep in mind that the difference will only be the amount of time you spend on the app which would be minutes.
After a certain amount of time, they will receive this badge on their profile page to show they are still active on the site.
How to Only See People Who Are ‘New Here’
Unfortunately, there is no section on Bumble where you can only see new accounts like there is on the Hinge New Here section.
Bumble may eventually introduce a section like this but this will only be in the later future. This is because Bumble UI is too full and may confuse current users.
The best way you can do this is to look out for the orange New Here badge and swipe right on the people. Since it’s a new feature, you will see more of these people in your swipe queue.
FAQs
