LINE, the world's leading free calling and messaging service, announced it has reached 30 million global users, taking only 10 months to reach this landmark since launching the service in June 2011.
LINE’s features an array of user-friendly functions that have contributed to its growing popularity including a sophisticated UI, cute stickers, a group chat function that allows chat between up to 100 friends and free voice calls. Recently added services such as LINE PC Version, LINE Card and LINE Camera have played an important role in boosting LINE’s level of global awareness and popularity.
“LINE has been upgrading its service features to satisfy its users and as a result is continuously ranked in the top places at the App Store. Reaching 30 million users is a reward for everyone’s efforts and establishing this landmark gives us the desire to continue providing new features that our users will enjoy experiencing,” said Lee Jin-woo (李珍雨), senior manager, LINE Business Office, NHN Corp.
