IMPORTANT: MAKE SURE YOUR CURRENT PHONE NUMBER IS REGISTERED TO LINE

If the phone number you registered to LINE isn't the same as the one you're
currently contracted with, you may suddenly become unable to use LINE.


E.g.
You register phone number A to LINE, but then cancel or change it.
   ▼
You continue using LINE with the canceled phone number A still registered to it.
   ▼
A certain amount of time passes, and someone else makes a new contract with
phone number A.
   ▼
The person newly contracted with phone number A registers it to LINE.
   ▼
Phone number A is removed from your LINE account, which then becomes
inaccessible.


 

Once a certain amount of time passes after canceling your phone number, it can
be contracted to and used by someone else.

If your phone number has changed, be sure to register the one you're currently
contracted with to LINE. You can confirm and change your registered phone number
from the Account screen.

ABOUT LETTER SEALING

Letter Sealing is a feature that provides end-to-end encryption (E2EE) for chat
messages. E2EE is a communication system designed so that messages saved on our
servers are encrypted and cannot be read by anyone except the sender and
receiver of the message.


Once the sender and receiver have both turned on Letter Sealing, they will be
able to start sending messages with added security.


The following information will be encrypted:


• Text messages (not including messages sent through other services like
YouTube)
• Location information
• 1-on-1 voice/video calls
Note: We plan to expand Letter Sealing’s functionality in the future.


If you use LINE for PC with Letter Sealing enabled on the smartphone version of
LINE, you will be required to verify your identity the first time you send a
message.


For information about verifying your identity to use Letter Sealing on LINE for
PC, see this Help article.
