How to Temporarily Disable Your Bumble Account
Snooze mode, a temporary account disablement option offered by Bumble, essentially lets you log out of your account without losing any of your connections or profile details.

Remove Bumble’s Date Mode
You can disable Date mode so that you can keep using Bizz and BFF if you want to stay active on Bumble but aren’t currently trying to date someone.
Tap the logo at the top of the Bizz or BFF page, then scroll through the options until Bumbledate appears. To delete it, simply tap the X in the upper-left corner.
You may always reactivate Date mode from your settings, but all connections you made while in Date mode are gone.
