Banned and no option to know why
Everett Newell
I go to log in one evening and can’t had to delete the app and reinstall. No one will answer my questions as to why I was “banned” come to find out a lot of people I know were also banned with out an explanation and no help from the developers as to why or how to fix whatever unknown issue it maybe. Terrible policy. Also there’s no permissions for rooms/groups as far as ownership of said rooms/groups also terrible for a social environment. If someone created a room that same person can be removed by anyone that’s in there. A simple addition of a flag to the rooms profile can prevent this rather easily.
CUSTOMER SERVICE I NEED HELP
Chiwhite
Didn’t get a chance to set up email and password before my phone broke. I am trying to log in from a new device and I cannot because it wants a password. I can’t even delete my account my and start over. There is absolutely no human person at LINE for me to get help from. The customer non service Q&A center was unhelpful.

New review: One star Got new phone and chats don’t transfer over. Every other app of this type did but not this app. ——— Old review: • No one in a group should be able to delete the creator of a group. If someone tries, the creator of the group should receive a notification of this and not be deleted. There are people who get into chats just to delete everyone. The only person(s) who should be able to delete people from chat is the creator(s) of the chat room or administrator(s) of it. • USES UP A LOT OF MEMORY. Ps Cannot create an account with just an email. Sad
App’s worst feature: the pointless updates
Lilah ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I’ve been using line to talk to close friends since 2015, before the app featured any sort of calling features. The group call features they added were revolutionary for the app. Suddenly, I was able to talk to the friends I’d been messaging. Being able to reply to messages and @ users in chats were helpful features as well. In the years since, Line has made many updates to its features and interface, but more and more I’ve found them to be pointless and frustrating. The “ ... “ indicator that would let you know when a friend was typing was removed over the past year, adding a needless layer of confusion to talking to someone in dms. Changes have just begun to be added to the timeline, too— the place you’d usually see all of your friends’ and group posts is being converted into “Line VOOM”, where anyone can follow your account and no one can see your posts unless you allow your account to be followed by others. It’s a poor decision that turns what was a safe haven for talking to your friends into a Twitter knockoff. If I wanted to talk to my friends on Twitter, I would just do that. I don’t know anyone that asked for Line VOOM, but I truly hope the developers give users the option to disable features and still be able to post for just their friends to see. If not, I may no longer be using the app when the update launches next year. Overall? Line *has* been great for connecting with friends, but I’m dissatisfied with the way it’s been changed and wouldn’t recommend the updated app to anyone.
Could be 5 stars

Would be awesome to see an option for multiple chat channels within a chat, similar to discord. I use this app for a mobile game and it would GREATLY benefit from multiple channels
Disheartening

I got introduced to line 5 years ago. I met and called friends on there that I had been talking to. We didn’t use the app for years after that but I still kept the app because I could re-read our chat logs and here’s where the problem comes from. First of all, you have 5 free calls now?? Why not do what discord does and just…make the calls free?? I understand that you have to make money but come on. Secondly, the stupid chat back up thing. It doesn’t make it clear from what I’ve seen that you have to manually BACK YOUR CHAT LOGS UO YOURSELF. Instead of just being like every other chat app that just saves it all for you. I recently got an iPad and while I was adding all the apps on there I got onto the app I had on my phone just to make sure everything was in order and it just locked me out. That is something that honestly should not happen. Me being on the app on two different devices shouldn’t just lock you out of everything, it serves no purpose. Absolutely none. So now, all of my chats are gone and for absolutely no reason. I’m now currently battling with customer service demanding that my chats be put back in place. I’m a “valued customer” but having this type of system in place really does not make me feel like one. I had important things on that app that I want/need to have back. Having this system in place is pointless and honestly just stupid considering how good the app was before and the overall potential that it has.
