What are the advantages of changing your location on Badoo?
If you’ve recently moved, you probably want to use Badoo to meet people in your new home. However, the servers do not update automatically, so you must manually change your location to show people near your current location.
On the other hand, you can simply venture out to meet people from other regions of the world and culture yourself without traveling or making friends in a place where you plan to vacation. There are many benefits to changing your profile location on Badoo , but basically it all boils down to being able to meet a whole new list of people.
Procedure to change your location on Badoo
Modifying the location of your profile is very easy to do, you just have to configure it from your Badoo account. To make the process easier for you, we show you the steps to follow , both from the application and from the website, to change your location:
From the website
Login to your Badoo account in the browser and go to your profile page from the icon in the top right corner. Among the data, scroll until you reach Location. There you will see your location registered on a map and a pencil icon that will allow you to edit it. In the text bar, enter the location you want to put and save your changes. Your profile will be updated with that new location.
From the mobile app
The process basically follows the same steps as on the website. You enter the application, open your account, access the profile and look for the location data, selecting Edit. If you’re just updating your address, you can help with your cell phone’s GPS or do the adjustment manually. Finally, you save the changes and you will have successfully modified your location.
How else can I meet people from other countries on Badoo?
The list of people on Badoo is restricted to a certain area near your location, so it is strictly necessary to change the location on your profile to meet people from other places or regions of the planet.
Now, if someone has changed their location within the app, you could also end up meeting someone from another country who appears in your area within Badoo. Although it is a remote and casual possibility. You can also create a secondary account with another registered location .
What can I do if Badoo won’t let me change my location?
On some occasions, a bug may disable manual location modification. This can happen due to problems with your phone’s or browser’s GPS , which are interfering with the settings of the app or website. But solving these problems is very simple.
If you have signed in to your account on the website and the app simultaneously, you need to sign out on one device . On the other hand, you can turn off your phone’s automatic location or browser location services. That way, you will have access to manual adjustment of the location.
How can I hide my profile location on Badoo?
One advantage that Badoo offers is the ability to hide account activity. You can disable distance or connection status from your profile settings. To do this, go to the Privacy section and uncheck the options to show distance and connection status. It is important to disable the GPS on your phone or browser before performing this procedure.
