What you need to know first
Snooze Mode pauses your profile (24h/72h/1 week/Indefinitely, reversible, keeps matches); deleting permanently removes the account after a 28-day restore window.

- Step 1: Open the Bumble app and tap the profile icon
- Step 2: Tap the gear icon to open Settings
- Step 3: Scroll to the bottom and tap Delete account
- Step 4: Choose your reason for leaving
- Step 5: Confirm by following the final on-screen prompt
Separate data request

Key gotchas
- Snooze Mode does not pause your subscription
- Cancel Bumble Boost, Premium or Premium+ before deleting — subscriptions may not cancel automatically
- Deleting the app, or going inactive, does not delete your profile
- Matches without an active chat expire while you are in Snooze Mode
- If the in-app flow fails, Support can delete the account after verifying you own it
