LINE from PC, how to download, install and use it

Yes, I know, I haven't gone crazy, I know this is Android Ayuda, and here we talk about things related to Google's mobile operating system, but I think this affects many of them. One of the main characteristics of LINE is that it is possible to use it from a computer. For now, that is something impossible to do with WhatsApp officially. Therefore, we are going to focus on how we can download, install and use LINE from any Windows PC, although it is also available for Mac.

1.- We download LINE

The first thing we have to do is download the program that we will use to communicate. To do this, we access the LINE page in SpanishAnd once this is done, we click on the download link of the file for Windows and Mac. This appears to the right of each of the buttons with mobile platforms, and to the left of the language selection menu, in the upper bar . If you get lost, take a look at the screenshot below.

2.- We execute the downloaded file

It is time to start the installation. We execute the file that we have downloaded. If we have done it through Chrome, we will find it in the bottom bar. If we have done it through Firefox or Safari (also Chrome), it is in the Downloads folder (or Downloads). If we have done it from Internet Explorer or we had it configured in the previous browsers, it will be found in the folder where we have selected or preselected it to be downloaded. Is named LineInst.exe.

3.- We install

Once this is done we can only continue with the installation process. As you will see, it is only available in English from nearby languages, unless someone can speak Japanese, or one of the variants of Chinese. We select English, and we continue, accepting in each and every one of the windows.

4.- We log in

At this time, it asks us to log in, doing so with the email and password with which we have registered on LINE. If we have not yet configured this data, we just have to go to our LINE application, go to Settings, click on Accounts and Email Registration. In addition to this option, we can also do it with a QR code. The computer shows us a QR on the screen, we read it with our smartphone, and it gives us direct access. If we do not have a LINE account yet, we can ask a friend or someone with Android for a mobile phone, insert our card and register with LINE with an email.

5.- Enjoy LINE

Now is the time to chat. All of our friends will appear on the screen. We can also add new friends, send stickers and emoji icons, as well as start free calls. Without a doubt, this is one of the characteristics that gives it the most strength against WhatsApp.

    Very interesting application

    I already have it on my smartphone. I just installed it on my pc. Once all these steps have been done, when I log in to the pc and the login asks for my e-mail account and password, I put the same one I have on my smartphone and it tells me that the login was incorrect. Which one should I put then? ... I don't understand ... Greetings

      Monica… opt for the login option with the QR code. In your App ... you go to Contacts, or Friends. You give the + symbol that appears in the upper right corner, and there you look for the QR code option in your app. You point at the PC screen, at the symbol that the PC Line shows you, and it does everything by itself, you'll see how easy it is.

        If I did it as you indicated and it worked but now I have tried registering my e-mail and password again on my mobile and this same in the pc login and it works too

    It is a good app from Line but like so many others they can only be installed on Android and not on the best GNU / Linux Free OS 🙁
    Both Android and most of the crowd do not know that it runs under a Linux-based mobile operating system. Of grief ...


    1.    Someone said

      Windows (Pc) -> Windows Mobile
      Linux -> Android
      MacOS -> iOS

      In mobile phones there is no Linux, there is Android which is exactly the same, but for mobile.

    Dear LINE creators,
    Today I have dropped a myth, the myth that the Japanese are unsurpassed when it comes to new technologies.
    I think it is obvious why people download LINE on their computer, and it is due to the lack of a mobile phone compatible with that program.
    Please, stop advertising and useless updates and edit an option to install it without the need for a compatible mobile phone and with it installed, thank you.


  22.   James said

    Well, what nonsense of instructions. Why a PC if we have it in the device that is really more useful. At the moment they have not found how to open an account without the need for a device!
