How to Easily Recover Lost LINE Chat History? Discover the Simple Fix!

Is There a Safe Way to Restore Deleted LINE Chats? Avoid This Common Mistake!

When I lose my LINE messages, I feel upset. But if my friend sends me the chat as a text file, I can get the words back. It’s not the whole chat room, but I can see what we said. I want to show you how I do this, step by step, so you can do it too.

What I Need to Know First

• Only words get saved in the text file. Pictures, videos, and stickers don’t.
• The steps are a little different if I use a phone or a computer.

My Steps for Restoring LINE Chats from Text Files

On My iPhone or Android

1. Open the chat room.
2. Tap the menu button at the top right.
3. Tap “Settings.”
4. Tap “Send Chat History.”
5. Choose to send it by LINE or by email.
6. If I pick email, I get a text file in my inbox.
7. I save the file somewhere safe.

On My Computer

1. Open LINE on my computer.
2. Go to the chat I want.
3. Click the menu at the top right.
4. Click “Save Chat.”
5. Pick where to save the file.
6. Can email the file to myself or someone else.

What I Watch Out For

• I can’t put the chat back into the chat room. I only get the words in a file.
• If I delete a chat room, I can’t bring it back with the words. I have to start a new chat or find the friend again.
• Stickers and pictures show up as “[Sticker]” or “[Photo]” in the file. They look odd, but the words are clear.
• If I reinstall LINE, I might lose my chats. That’s why I save them often.

My Quick Tips for Keeping Chats Safe

• Ask my friend to send me the chat as a text file if I lost it.
• Don’t share the text file with people I don’t trust.
• Save my chats before I change phones or reinstall the app.
• Read the file on any device, like my phone or computer.

Questions I Had (And the Answers That Helped Me)

Question: How do I import LINE chat history?

Answer: I use the backup I made before. If I have problems, I update my phone or restart it. Sometimes I turn off iCloud Drive for a bit if I’m on iPhone. If it still doesn’t work, I try again or ask for help.

Question: Will my friend know if I save the chat as a text file?

Answer: No. Saving the chat as a text file is private. My friend won’t get a message or see anything on their screen. But I keep my file safe so no one else reads it.

Losing chats makes me sad, but saving them as text files helps me remember what we said. I keep in mind that only words get saved, not pictures or stickers. I back up my chats often, and I don’t worry about my friend knowing when I save a chat. If you follow these steps, you can keep your chats safe and easy to read whenever you need them.
