I wish they'd put this much effort into the app itself. Line is by far the worst messaging app I've ever used (and I have no choice, but to use it). Files and photos expire and disappear, giant ads in the UI, chats that disappear, notifications and calls that fail to show up on the receiving side (happened to me both on iOS and Android), inane process of transferring chats to a new device or the chats will just disappear, PC app that logs me out every single day (somehow Telegram and Signal stay logged in just fine).
Exactly this. Instead of inventing another useless typeface noone is gonna use (I am pretty sure there are numerous typefaces exist that excel for Thai and Japanese languages) they would better work on simple case chats backup that's doesn't work if you move the app cross OS.
I also have to use LINE every day, and I can't say I love it (but it's either this or Facebook). They've been trying to push LINE Premium and LINE AI very hard (at least in Japan) to the point that some features are now blocked (e.g. you cannot unsend photos anymore unless you pay for Premium) and I absolutely hate it.
I hate the expiring photos/videos in message threads too. Overall the UX is clunky. I also use Wechat everyday, and even though their UX is also pretty clunky, it's still somehow efficient, and doesn't it bother me as much as having to use Line.
