How to Unmatch on Bumble

Last Updated: April 15, 2022

If the conversation fizzles or you discover that person isn't the one for you, you'll want to unmatch them. When you unmatch them, their conversation will grey out for them and they have the option to report you if you did something to threaten their safety. On your side, the chat will disappear completely. This wikiHow article teaches you how to unmatch your matches on Bumble and shows you how you can report someone in the same step.

Steps

1
Open Bumble. This app icon looks like a beehive on a yellow background. You can also do this on a web browser; go to https://bumble.com and sign in to continue.
- Matches appear when both you and another person swipe right or like each other. It has to be a mutual like in order for a match to occur.
2
Navigate to your chats. Tap the chat bubble icon in the bottom left corner of your screen.
- You'll also see matches in the "Match Queue" that you've matched with.

3
Tap the profile you want to unmatch. It will be from your "Match Queue" but you can also tap a chat to unmatch someone.
4
Tap ⋮. You'll see this three-dot menu icon in the top right corner of the profile or in the chat.
5
Tap Unmatch. It's usually the first option on the list. Do this if you don't want to be a match with that person anymore, but beware that they could appear for you to swipe again.
- To avoid reporting them when you unmatch, select I'm just not interested. If you want to report them, select an option here and Bumble will receive a report for that profile.
- When you unmatch someone, they can still access your chat, which is greyed out for them.
- If you want to prevent them from seeing you or contacting you, you can block them.^{[1]
