Badoo is a social networking and media platform that was created in 2006 by Andrey Andreev. Now a part of the Bumble family, Badoo has gone on to amass over 330 million members from countries all over the world.
Badoo markets itself as a gateway to making real connections by being yourself. Unlike many competing dating apps, Badoo works by connecting members to people in their area based on more than just appearance. It also takes things like interests and personality traits when making suggestions.
Additionally, Badoo isn’t necessarily exclusively for dating. The app can also be used to meet new friends nearby or connect with others who share similar interests.
Badoo operates on a straightforward swiping system, much like competing apps such as Tinder. It also offers features such as video chat, profile verification, and automatic blurring of inappropriate photos.
Badoo has become particularly popular in Spain, the United States, and several major Latin American countries. According to World Population Review, Badoo is the most popular in Brazil, where 5.10 million users generate the majority (over 6%) of the app’s monthly traffic.
Argentina came in a close second, with 4.5 million users who account for 5.31% of Badoo’s traffic. Columbia, yet another Latin American country, also made the top five, with 4.2 million users who generate 4.9% of the app’s monthly traffic.
In terms of numbers, however, the United States edged ahead of Columbia with 4.3 million users who make up 5.03% of the app’s traffic. Among European countries, Badoo has proven particularly popular in Spain, which is home to 4.3 million users or 5.01% of Badoo’s monthly traffic.
A recent study on Statista revealed that in July 2023, Badoo enjoyed 1.24 million downloads in North America and Latin America alone. It was also downloaded 559,000 times in the Asia Pacific region and 766,000 times in Europe, Africa, and the Middle East.
If you’re interested in trying out Badoo for yourself, you can download the app from the Google Play Store or the Apple App Store.
