On Bumble, the new '[Interest Badges](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wudya)' feature allows you to let other users know what you're passionate about, whereas 'Prompts' allows you to express yourself and kick off a conversation. There are six brand-new badges available: "Therapy," "Mindfulness," "Deep chat," "Nutrition," "Sleeping well," and "Time offline." Some of the new 'Prompts' include "I'm prioritizing my mental health by..." and "My mental health game changer was..." With 'Snooze Mode,' users can choose to hide their profile from potential matches for 24 hours, 72 hours, a week, or indefinitely. You can pause your Bumble activity without losing any connections or chats if 'Time offline' is your preferred Interest Badge. Additionally, Bumble has an 'Incognito Mode' that only allows you to appear for matches you've chosen.
