Swipe to Backtrack. Confirm that you want to go back to the previously swiped profile. If you don't have a Bumble Boost or Premium subscription, you will be prompted to upgrade and won't be able to use Backtrack until you do.
- You can only use 3 Backtracks every 3 hours, so don't waste them! If you decide that you don't want to use a Backtrack, you can tap the x at the bottom of your screen.
