Dating apps aren't just for dating anymore. Bumble wants to find you a new BFF.

It works the same way most dating apps do today, you create a profile, and swipe left or right.

An app with this sole purpose, Hey! VINA launched in 2015, but is currently only active in San Francisco, Los Angeles and NYC.

If you do live in one of those cities, check out more info on Hey! VINA here.

But Bumble's existing 3 million users nationally already gives Bumble BFF a leg up in availability and automatic user base.

Whitney Wolfe, who pitched Bumble BFF out of her own desire to make female friendships, said that since its launch, Bumble BFF has had 1 million swipes, with 60% coming from women.

But some ladies have already found fabulous friendship success with the app
