I used to sign in my account via cell phone number, but im failed to open it again, im lost omg I had too much data since 2013. My heart wrecked 💔 Line Team plz help me

★★★★★Oct 22, 2026

Not now...

★★★★★Oct 22, 2026

Beware! It's a good, basic app for messaging but in Finland you cannot login with phone number (why??). If you lose your phone and haven't connected Line account with Apple, it's basically impossible to login to your Line account with a new device! Make sure to connect Line with Apple and login with PC just in case, otherwise your Line account is gone forever (in case you lose access to your phone). Connecting with Google doesn't help at all, it has to be Apple account. Support is clueless...
