Bumble on Tuesday said it would now allow either person in a match to send the first message, dropping the women-first messaging rule that has been a defining feature of the dating app since its launch in 2014. The move comes as dating-app companies grapple with user fatigue toward traditional swipe-based platforms and slowing growth, prompting some including Bumble and Tinder-owner Match Group to roll out new features and AI-powered tools aimed at improving engagement.
Thus far, only women could initiate conversations in heterosexual matches on Bumble, unlike most dating apps, including Tinder, where either user can send the first message. Bumble said tests in Canada have shown higher chat initiation rates, fewer expired chats and more mutual conversations after the changes were introduced.
