LINE: Free Calls & Messages for Android
I just got the app not to long ago and seems to be a great messenger app. I love it so far. I do however have a 2 small suggestions if you don't mind me saying them. Well I think it'll be nice if the screen can rotate sideways like when your posting and stuff. I mean it only rotates sideways in chat. See if you have a big tablet or cell phone and if you prefer it sideways I think to have the option of letting the screen rotate sideways would be great. . It's not small or hard to read but I think if the option of having different font sizes would help to. And in Groups you have group chat but why can't you add more then one group chat room? Like say you have one group chat but want to add another chat room with a different subject within the same group. See I think that'll make the group's more fun for everyone it'll be a great ad dition to groups. Other then that I think your app is great I truly love it and I think I will enjoy the app alot.
Its accessing Precise-GPS location! IP-adrs auto discloses location & suffice for external servers to provide services, so no need to access GPS-Loc or Network-Loc ! its accessing ALL LOGs+History, WebSite/URL visited List, Running app List, etc ! are massive Violation of Privacy-Rights. Even Law-Enforcement needs Court-Order for such Histry/Log Private Data! When app dev wil Respect Privacy-Rights & apply it, then we wil updat this review. Thanks.
Hi, why can't I send a theme as a gift to one of my friends? Pls help me fix it, because I can send stickers as a gift but not themes?... In total I find this app Great and useful to connect with friends and family. Very cute line characters... Suggention only, why not add a location feature, so we are able to know where our family and friends are.
After the new updates, i noticed whenever i browsed the timeline, if there is a video it will play automatically by itself. Maybe for some of you this doesn't seem concerning, but for me who use cellular data instead of wi-fi this is a really great problem due to limited carrier data given. I really hoped they will change it and only let the video plays when you want to.
Recently, I've changed my phone, but I find there is something strange when I make a Vid call. The emoticons don't show up and the filter gone. Just like the old ver of line. How come? Before, it was okay, but now I can't sent emo while making vid call
I want to sign in to my old account but I can't because I didn't register an email address. Now when I get the confirmation code after typing in my number, it asks me to log in with an email or facebook and when I press (no registered email) it goes back to asking me for my phone number. I'm in a loop and it's annoying! I really need to sign in to my account, please.
Screen rotation doesn't work. You have more than 1 mobile device like me? Very bad luck since you will need to use a completely different user on each of them. This means you better tell your friends the Line user under which they should contact you if you don't want to end up in a message chaos. In the end this means you can use Line only on 1 device. AND THE LATEST UPDATE JUST MEANS MORE ADS. It seems to be the same with many apps recently...
I message and call my son who lives in Japan a lot and the calls stream across seamlessly. They are just as clear as any local call if not better. Often use 4G when no wi-fi available and had no problems. So I would highly recommend this app and give it 5 stars. Len
App for the most part works fine. 2 big issues. My last phone broke and the app won't let me transfer my account. I don't have an email set up and transferring by phone number doesn't work. And worse, there is no one to email or contact to help with the issue. So zero customer service.
Good app, hope to see mention feature to be added in the future so it easier to reply specific chat/person inside of group chat. and imagine that we can subscribe to a specific news topic instead of reading those garbage article that we won't read so until now Line Today is a garbage.
You really need to sort out logging in from a old device to a new device, I can not log in. As to others saying devs do nothing, no contact available. Scroll down, you will see email contact, web site connection. Open your eyes.!!!
The notifications for points, stickers, etc. are annoying. There is no way to turn it off. Group calls are constantly dropped as well. No way to contact the developer about this. People shouldn't be allowed to kick everyone out of a room they didn't start. There should be an owner and admins for each chat room.
Unable to login to my account using my phone number after formatting my phone. It's the same number I used for registering in the first place. On trying to login it keeps saying invalid! I still remember my username.... Requesting support to gain access!
Still can't update my profile picture as I get an error message every time. Tried to delete my pic and start again, now I have no profile picture at all! So frustrating
On my S3 and S2 this program never works. Constantly freezes and immobilizes my phones. And then when I quit out of the program it repeatedly tells me the program isn't responding and asks if I want to send a report. Stupid thing is you need a line account to play their games which functions better than the Line program itself. I would delete this app if it wasn't for the games I need the account to play with my friends.
My phone broke and I wanted to transfer my account to this other phone but even though I have an email registered with it, it won't let me! It takes me to the syncing app data screen after telling me I will lose all my previous messages by changing devices. And then it gets to 99% on this screen and completely stops every time. Eventually I get unknown error. Tried reinstalling app several times. Tried starting a new account too but same problem. So basically I just can't even log in to line at all.
It's my favorite app really kawaii and awesome, but lately it freeze. Friends doesn't receive my message and I don't get their messages too. Just a notification appears and then when I open I see nothing :( help me onegaishimasu
It would be perfect if it have floating video call, so we can do other thing when video calling, groups or not. So we can also discuss or check something while still seeing each other on video call. Please make it happen! Would be a 5 star!
Notifications no longer disappear by themselves after opening a message. You have to physically remove or open the notification for them to go away. Because of this, Line notifications on Android wear show the name from an older message, but the text from a new message.
I don't know why i can even send voice note to any one. And i prefer the old line without comment section on the line today. It is fill with rude comment and some news has an inappropriate content for children. Pls proceed
I do not get any notifications, the only way I can see if I have a message is to start up the app. I also get no pop ups, sound or vibration even though the settings are on, and the mute symbol next to the peoples names I am talking to will not go away.
Why can't i reconnect my old Line Id with LINE ID ... I haven't registered my account on email and i don't have that number anymore since a year.. How can i recover my account now? I really need to reconnect with that account otherwise i'll lost my so many friends.. 2nd thing why you guys remove the LOGIN & LOGOUT option? That was so good for my kinda people who don't wanna get disturbed all the time. We just loged out in busy hours and then reconnect and you guys removed the option.. Hell.
Decent, easy to talk to people online I don't want to give my number or Facebook to. It can only be logged in on one device at a time which is super annoying so I'll find a competitor and get my friends to install that instead.
It's okay. Not much to do and the coins/points for stickers are a lot harder to get plus 1 coin = 2 points. So now you need 100 coins for a 50 points sticker set and 200 coins for a 100 points sticker set. Texting could be better but you have to leave any other app you have going on and go back to the Line app to text instead of being able to text back when the text pops up as a notification. Also calling others is not easy. Most of the time the connection goes out for no reason. We both have great connection and it just isn't very good. Line is eh.
I've upgraded my phone (oneplus 3T) to 7.0 nougat and since then i can't CHANGE my profile picture. Please fix this soon, it annoys me. Thank you!
Humn it is okay it look nice chat but little dargerous if not careful. Maybe need better setting cause I hard time. Also there is chat turn that on or off? cause sometime bother me. But nice idea app I like it. Hope it will improve
Hi.. i really loved line.. but i've got some troubles in my app for couple days.. i can't open line today and other link, such as st*rbucks coupons. Once i clicked on the link it just went to a blank page.. I'm using samsung j7 2016. And i already went to samsung service center and also to my cellphone provider. But they couldn't fix it.. I tried to re-install too but nothing happened..so what's wrong with my app? Please fix it.. thank you..
The calls are starting to be weird. It always has an unstable connection every like 10 seconds and once it started to do that, my friend will talk me in a way that I don't understand at all. It is like the call received the voice in a very late way, and it will go through my phone like it is fast-forward or something. Me and my friend's signal are pretty good, I just don't know why these problems are starting to appear after the update. Try to solve this one thanks.
I'm in unable to update my profile picture on the app. It's been a week ow I thought it's an update related problem I reinstall the app but nothing happened. I still can't update my profile picture it keeps giving an error. And your faqs failed to resolve the problem.
The app is great, one thing that bugs me after updating the software to nougat 7.0, the notification message still hang on the notification bar even though I have already opened it and need to press twice to make it dissappear. This didn't happen when I was using the marshmallow software. Please fix it :D
Everything is all nice on this messaging app, but it lacks one important feature: Chat history synchronisation. Countless times, I have lost my chat history at unexpected times. There's backup chat history option, I know, but it only works for one chat, causing it's users to backup manually only.
I've been using LINE for 4years and it's really an awesome application. But on 31st December I can not play the voice not that my friends send me. I've been restart my phone, and re-install this application, but still it does not work. There are no problem with my connection too. I also use the original theme, cause at first I think there is a problem if I use another theme. But, still. I can not play the voice note until today. This is the first time, and I really am upset with LINE. Please fix it.
Great for contacting international friends and family. Works ok on my LG V20 but my kb is glitchy at times when typing a message so i need to restart my phone then it works ok again. Not sure if it's a nougat thing or line because it was working flawlessly on my htc 10 before i got the V20.
Buggy. Notifications don't clear when you open the app, and notifications arrive way late... Who knows what the encryption protocol and implementation are. Signal and WhatsApp work way better, and don't have ads. Ethnic flavor seems like a dumb reason to knowingly choose a bad app.
Edit:February 8th and devs still have yet to fix this app for android 7.0 it's been months and few updates in. Don't know what the hold up is. Profile pics still don't work, notifications are broken.. Replying from drop down doesn't remove notifications, you have to manually swipe it away. Video calls always unstable when having a good connection and just crash. Come on fix this, this a major messaging app for many of us across the world. I need this to work for my friends and family in Asia.
Sometimes bit laggy in low spec-phone, and it cost much storage on my phone(approx.300mb lost only for LINE), please fix that. This app must be perfect for all android phones. We want no more lag, and we need a less space that loss only for this app...that's my review. Regards, Andrew Joe(@andrewjss) LINE USER INDONESIA
this is overall a good app. but when I turn off a group's notification, it still give me notification when people are joining the group. it can get quite annoying when you join the group early and have to get like 200 notif abt the person who accept the group invitation. please make a feature where we can turn off this alert, thankyou
Hello, for some reason I can't log back into my LINE account and I think that maybe it's a wrong password? But I don't get any email about LINE to change my password...is there any way I can change it? Thank you.
After the latest update for oneplus 3 (nougat) - we can't update our profile, can't see friends profile picture.. please fix it line dev, it's getting annoying. Thanks.

You always get a couple of calls a day just for watching one ad. Unlike the others that make you jump through hoops to acquire call time. Also when using this app it is your number that shows instead of a server number therefore whomever you call see it as you and will pick up. If you want a free and easy way to make quick phone calls this is the app for you. (Oh and the sound quality is top notch. Clear without any breakup. Just like making a normal call)
