2. Always - Your location will update when the Bumble app is open and when its running in the background. If you dont want your location to be updated while the app is not open, you can force close the app. Please note, if you choose never, you will not be able to make any new matches.

Why does someones location go away on Bumble?

If a users location isnt showing on their profile –– dont worry. A location wont appear if that user has set their profile on Snooze mode (for folks youve already matched with), if they are not near one of our geographical pinpoints, or if they havent opened the app for several days.

Does Bumble track your location?

It only updates your current location when you are online or when someone sends you a message. So if you dont open your app during a road trip, and nobody swipes right on your profile, or write to you during that time (so sad!), Bumble will not update your location.
