I love this app but I would love to be able to connect YouTube music.
★★★★☆Alpha Centauri· Aug 13, 2026
Love the app. Great to see where you've been and comparing that to your friends. The only issue I have with the app is that for some reason, on the scratch map, some suburbs/areas don't highlight when you center on them? There's a major suburb in my city that for some reason doesn't get highlighted but every suburb surrounding it does. And nearly every single suburb in a nearby city doesn't even highlight at all. I'm not sure why that is. other than that it's a great app.

Literally obsessed but please fix this one bug!!😭 okay, so I honestly LOVE bump so much, the map feature and seeing where my friends are is literally so cute and fun BUT there is one super annoying problem!! My Scratch Map won’t unfog unless I have the app literally open on my screen the entire time the second I leave the app, it completely stops updating my location in the background, so none of the places I walk/drive to get uncovered unless I literally keep my screen open! 10/10 app tho 😙

The application keeps spamming you to enable this permission, enable that permission, enable yet another permission, enable some other permission literally every second (I'm not even joking) to the point of being unusable if you don't want to enable any one of its requested permissions. Whoever thought this is good application design should be relinquished from the mortal plane of existence.
★☆☆☆☆Alex Marica· Aug 16, 2026
There is a phone call status indicator that is not advertised anywhere and there is no possibility to remove it. I understand letting people where you are and also having the option to not let them know but the phone call indicator is forced. That is too much privacy infringement
