How do I turn off my location?

Updated over 3 months ago

If you want to stop sharing your live location with someone, Ghost Mode is the way to go. Ghost Mode lets you hide your live location from a specific friend while keeping everything else in the app working as normal.

How to Use Ghost Mode

  1. Tap your friend’s pin on the map

  2. Tap the ghost icon in the top-right corner

  3. Tap the Bump option to stop sharing your location

That friend will now only see your last shared location. Learn more about Ghost Mode.

What if I turn off location completely?

We don’t recommend it - if you switch off location access in your phone settings, Bump can’t work as it should. You’ll lose features like:

  • The friend map

  • Your scratch map

  • Live updates

For more control without breaking the app, try ghost mode instead 💙
