LINE announced the 2023 annual ranking of Taiwanese users’ favorite functions. These 10 functions are the most popular!
LINE accompanies Taiwanese people in their daily lives. It not only helps users communicate smoothly with family, friends, and work contacts socially, but it also optimizes many functions this year to make the user experience better and better. Not long ago, the LINE team compiled the 10 most popular LINE features among Taiwanese users based on observations from December 2022 to November 2023.
No. 10—LINE Community AI Summary Message
First of all, No. 10 is the “Message Summary” function just launched by the LINE community last month. Using OpenAI’s generative AI model, message summaries from LINE social chat rooms will be automatically compiled at a fixed time. This function helps users quickly grasp the focus of other people’s discussions in a huge LINE community with thousands of people, and quickly integrate into the topics of other members of the community.
No. 9 — Wallet Page Optimization
After the “Wallet” function in the LINE App has been optimized by the user, four new sub-pages have been added: “Shopping”, “LINE Pay”, “LINE Bank” and “Lifestyle Offers”. All kinds of consumption, shopping discount information and financial-related information that users will use in their lives are integrated here.
No. 8 — VOOM Camera
Unconsciously, LINE VOOM has been in the short video market for almost 2 years. In order to provide users with a better video experience, it has continued to optimize its built-in functions this year, such as launching a new editing function “VOOM Camera”. In addition to making editing more intuitive, VOOM Camera also provides a variety of exclusive special effects, filters, music and sound effects, allowing short video creators to make video content more lively and attract the attention of the audience.
No. 7—LINE Invoice Manager
LINE Invoice Manager is one of the 10 functions compiled by the LINE team this time and is one of the most commonly used and favorite functions of the author. In addition to pushing notifications every time a unified invoice is drawn, LINE Invoice Manager also provides clear invoice details for each purchase. It also provides consumption analysis to help people who are too lazy to keep accounts to better manage their expenses.
No. 6 — Chat Room “All Photo Albums”
Many people store the beautiful photos they browse during travel and daily life in LINE photo albums. Starting from October this year, LINE has optimized the photo album function of chat rooms, allowing users to directly click “All Albums” to view each photo album of different chat rooms, making it easier to find pictures!
No. 5 — LINE community Live talk group chat
The Live talk function launched by the LINE community allows users to not only communicate through text messages in the LINE community, but also directly start real-time conversations with members through voice, making group chats more lively and interesting!
No. 4—Optimization of the “voice message” function in chat rooms
Sometimes when typing is inconvenient and you don’t want to make free LINE voice calls, LINE’s “Voice Message” function is very convenient for quick communication. However, in the past, “Voice Messages” had to be played from the beginning. Later, LINE also optimized the “Voice Messages” function, allowing users to not only pause playback at any time, but also slide on the audio track to select specific sections to listen to. The optimization of this function can save a lot of time and make communication more efficient for users who often receive “voice messages”. It is so considerate!
No. 3—Father’s Day Chat Room Special Effects
In recent years, the LINE team has occasionally brought appropriate “chat room background effects” during important festivals. Limited-time chat room special effects during festive seasons often bring many surprises to users. Chat room special effects for Mother’s Day, Halloween, and Fireworks Festival are all very popular among users, but the important “Father’s Day” special effects were missing before. This year, the LINE team worked hard and finally launched the “Father’s Day Chat Room Special Effects” for the first time. The pattern also included the words “88”, which is familiar to Taiwanese people. By the way, LINE’s Father’s Day chat room background effects are the first in the world in Taiwan!
No. 2—Profile Studio
This year, LINE has launched a variety of functions in the “Personal Profile Studio”, such as “AI Selfie”, “AI Portrait” and other functions. LINE users do not need to download additional applications. In the LINE application, they can use their uploaded photos to generate various styles of AI portrait pictures. LINE officials also stated that the LINE user group who likes making and sharing the most is in Taiwan!
No. 1 — Topic Auto Carousel
For long-term LINE users, I believe that most people are already accustomed to a specific LINE theme. Unless they have a sudden impulse, most people will not change it manually often. However, the “Automatic Topic Carousel” function launched by LINE has unexpectedly become very popular among LINE users! As long as you set it up once, the system will be able to “regularly change” the LINE background according to the settings, keeping the LINE experience fresh at any time.
So, how to use this 2023 Taiwanese users’ favorite feature of the year? First, after updating LINE to the latest version, click the gear button in the upper right corner of the LINE homepage to go to the “Settings” page, then select “Theme” > “Theme List”:
At this time, a currently used LINE theme will be selected by default in the “Theme List”. Users can select multiple LINE themes here to automatically rotate themes at a customized time!
There are currently four options for update frequency, namely “every 12 hours”, “every day”, “every 3 days” and “weekly”. You can choose the update frequency according to your preferences. However, here I will choose “every 12 hours” according to the frequency of day and night for demonstration. It should be reminded here that the update frequency is calculated based on the setting “Apply”, so the time of application is also very critical.
