Once you’ve had your phone number REGISTERED to your LINE account, you won’t be able to un-register it, at least not the normal way. If you want your number removed, or replaced with a new number, you will need the help of your Facebook account, and a backup of your chat history because this involves uninstalling your LINE app first (see #8 on how to backup chat history). Here’s how to unlink your phone number.
1.In LINE app, go to More > Settings and tap on Accounts.
2.When you see the Facebook logo, tap on the Link button. You will be asked to login to your Facebook account. Accept all permissions required to link Facebook to the LINE app.
3.When you see that the Link option is now changed to Unlink, proceed to uninstall your LINE app from your device.
4.Then, reinstall it. Here are the links for Android and iOS. Once reinstalled, open LINE app.
5.Tap on LINE User Login and then tap on Facebook (login again if you have to).
6.If they ask you to enter a PIN number and you don’t have one, just type in the last 4 digits of the previous phone number attached to your LINE account.
If you don’t want to let those who have your phone number to add you in their LINE contact automatically, this option can be turned off. By turning it off, they can only add you once you’ve accepted their request.
1.Open LINE app > More > Settings.
2.Tap on Friends and untick Allow Others to Add.
By default, any photo you send to your friends via chat room, will suffer from a lower quality. It is a default setting. To change the quality of photo sent:
1.In the LINE app main page, go to More > Settings.
2.Tap on Chats & Voice and then tap on Photo Quality; change from Low to Normal.
Are you bored with your current default LINE ringtone? If you would like to have it changed, you can have it changed from within the app itself, or use your own custom ringtone.
1.Open LINE app and go to More > Settings.
2.Tap on Notifications > Tone then choose one ringtone as your default.
3.If you have a custom ringtone that you want to use, from the Tone list, find the option Others.. near the bottom of the list, tap on it and proceed to select your ringtone.
There are these options under the Edit Messages feature, where you can Delete your messages, or forward it to someone else’s or have it saved to Note. You will find these features useful especially the Delete feature, since you can choose any messages that you’ve sent before to be deleted from your conversation. If you would like to know how to do that, follow these steps.
1.Enter any chat room from the LINE app, and tap on the down arrow button at the top right. Tap on Edit Messages.
2.Choose whether you want to Delete Messages, Forward or Save to Notes.
3.Select the message you want to apply the option to, and tick them (see shot).
4.Once you’ve ticked the messages, tap on the next action to take which will depend on whether you previously chose to Delete, Forward or Save.
Just like Viber and Facebook Messenger, LINE also has a Free Call option that allows you to call any fellow LINE user for free. You need an active Internet connection oc course.
1.Enter a chat room with the friend you want to call.
2.Tap on the down arrow at the top right and tap on Free
Call to start calling your friend.
So your friends keep sending invitations to you to play games from LINE Family apps, and those invitations just keep on coming, almost like ads that flood all your other social media accounts. I bet you didn’t know LINE lets you disable these notifications. Here’s how.
1.In the LINE app main page, go to More > Settings > Notifications > Additional Services.
2.Under Unauthorized Apps, untick Receive Messages.
