I've been using LINE for a long time but not aware that there is such a thing called Timeline, a feature which your contacts if they post photos it will show.

Now, not that it is bad but its actually good for social. However if someone in the contact list were to post suggestive photos or politically incorrect photos then its not so nice right especially if a loved one "accidentally" come across it.

Does anyone here know how to turn off this Timeline thingy? Please help before disaster strikes.
 
go to settings >> Privacy>>Timeline & Home Privacy >>Uncheck Allow New Friends ( if you still feel scare, then go to Privacy setting and change all your friends status to hidden.)

Deactivate your Facebook account. Problem solved.

Why do people trust Mark Zuckerberg I will never know.

LINE is not a facebook app. it is a mobile app created by the Japanese i think.
 
Like Facebook there are privacy settings for LINE as well.
But I dun trust it rather play safe.
People who steal eat, chiongsters, lead double life should not subscribe to such apps.
Even find whadaapp a hassle with the last seen feature, nosy parkers can monitor me.
Line is a hit in Thailand
 
Line is fucked up if you sign into your account on another phone the phone that you are currently signed into will sign you out but before that will automatically delete your chat logs and everything so even if you sign back into the account everything is gone

Social media can either be a boon, or put your private life as open book. Hear Tango also good for chat and stuff?

In Thailand WhatsApp costs 30 baht ; LINE is free also they told me LINE can be use like facebook
 
Sorry guys, have another question -

In LINE's timeline if I want to edit say for example someone reply my broadcast of a photo and I need to delete her reply but at the same time keep that thread or rather that broadcast, how can this be done? I found that even after I block her in my LINE her comment still exist in the timeline.

Just example only. Please help.

wah piang line isn't FB la. It's totally different but the functions are quite similar to FB. One of the coolest features are the stickers and the video talk thing.

Pii Joe, put the user under your hidden list. Under timeline settings. Her comments will not appear to the public.

Validate if hidden contacts out from Timeline settings. Mine's by default, you never know when it comes back to haunt you :p. Use it only for communication or messaging, my escapades are nobody else's business :p Even the politicians in bkk are using Line for contact for appointments, alternative meetings with political unrest

If your 'loved one' is snooping around on your phone without your permission, you're doing it wrong.
