Bumble launched an ID verification feature allowing users to submit a government-issued ID to authenticate their identity and sort profiles by verified users. They also released "Share Date," letting users share date details, and "Review Before You Send," which flags inappropriate messages. Additionally, a "Discover" page helps users find matches based on shared interests. The ID verification is available in multiple countries including the US, UK, Australia, Canada, France, India, Ireland, Spain, Germany, Mexico, and New Zealand. These updates aim to boost Bumble's growth after a revenue decline.
