hey this is paul from wondershare mobile trans and there is a social app out there called
line that a few of you might know about because it is one of the most popular
cross-platform messaging apps in the world with over 600 million users
using the app and if you're one of those 600 million users and they've ever wondered
if there's a way to be able to back up those chats that you have online with your attachments
your photos all of that stuff then luckily for you you found this video because today
we're going to show you three different methods on how you can back up your line chats
backing up your chats is always really important and sometimes it's important for different reasons
one of the reasons might be you're getting a new phone and don't want to lose those chats another
reason might be that you have really important photos or documents that have been sent to you and
you don't want to lose those chats because they were sent online so in this video we will show
you three different ways and how you can back up those chats to make sure that you have them for
whenever you need them we will show you a method for iphone then we'll show you one for android
and then we'll show you a method using a piece of software called mobile trans which you will
need to download so check the description below for a link to the official site where you can
download that so it is ready when we get to that method so let's get started with our first method
if you use line and you own an ios device then this is the method for you because you can take
a backup of those line chats using a linked icloud account and on the icloud backup you can
store all of the chats from your line account so if you've got photos contacts attachments
videos all of the stuff that you've ever used online you can back up on icloud but sometimes
it will take up quite a bit of space depending how much data it is that you want to back up so the
first thing you'll need to do is make sure that you have enough data in your icloud account so
we can carry on with this backup and if you've checked that now we can carry on
with the steps so let me show you how you back up your line chats on an ios device
but just know if you're already using line on the target device then the process will erase
the existing data on it step one is that you need to open up line first of all and go into settings
chats and then chat backup and history this is where you select that backup now button when
this backup is happening you need to make sure you're connected to wi-fi or data and of course
you need to make sure that you are logged into an icloud account or this just won't work and that
is it that's all you need to do to back up those chats so now you're thinking right well now i've
backed them up how do i restore those chats so let me show you how to restore those chats on a
new or the same ios device you need to make sure first of all that your icloud drive is switched
on so heading to your phone settings and into icloud and then scroll down till you see icloud
drive and just make sure that that toggle is on all you have to do then is install line again
from the app store and this will be on your new or your current ios device and sign up as
you normally would and then line should detect that you have a backup on icloud what you do
here is hit restore and those chats will have been restored to your new or your same device
okay this second method is for people that are using
android and if you want to back up your line chats and you're using an android device
it's fairly similar to what i just showed you for an ios device but with a few small
changes the main difference here is that you don't use icloud instead you will use google
drive because that is what will be linked to your android phone and that is really the only
difference everything else about this method is really pretty similar just like on the ios
method you need to make sure you have enough space on your google drive to allow these chats
with photos and videos and attachments to be fully backed up if you have enough space for this method
to carry on then let's go let me show you how to backup your line chat on your android device
first of all of course you need to open up line and go into the settings option then select chats
and then select the option to backup and restore the chat history when you're in
this section you need to select to back up your chats to google drive and here
this is where you might have to sign in with your google account if you're not signed in
already and as soon as you're signed in this should then work it might take a bit
of time for your google account to show up here and back up but once you select
backup then that is it your google drive will have been backed up with your line chats
and of course once you then have that backup that means then you can restore your chats online to a
new android device or just the same android device so let me show you how you would go about doing
that first of all head over to that google play store search for line and then this is where you
can re-download it and when restoring the account needs to be linked to the same google account
that you had on the previous line backup it might take a few minutes but then your chats are back
now we've given you those options with an android and an ios device
let me show you something that works for both and this is a piece of software called mobile
trans what you can do here no matter what is you can restore it from iphone to android
or vice versa with just one click it can copy your line chats your contacts attachments etc from
your phone to the local computer afterward you can restore the line chat history to any chosen device
to learn how to restore line chat history from your computer using mobile trans just
follow these steps you need to install and then launch the mobile trans software and on that
home screen you need to select the line transfer option that you can see on the home screen there
and then once inside that option just pick backup line messages and you'll find that
there just on the top right of the home screen at this point you need to go and grab your phone
and make sure it is connected and then what will happen is that mobile trans will detect the phone
automatically but this might just take a couple of seconds to work but trust me it will work and once
you see your phone inside mobile trans just hit start at the bottom right and then that is when
all your line data will start to be backed up to your computer depending on how much data you have
this might take a little bit of time but just make sure that your phone is connected for the entire
process or it just won't finish and then once the process is finished you can then disconnect your
phone you then need to go ahead and restore these chats so let me show you how to do that so on the
home screen of mobile trans select restore to device you can then select the saved backup that
you've just done so you'll see that on the screen and then just wait a little bit of time and then
what will happen is that once you've connected your device it will then restore those chats
from line that you just backed up to your computer over to your new device and then that should just
be that all your chats should be transferred over to your new device and with mobile trans you can
use this to transfer other chats as well like kik viber wechat and even whatsapp so mobile trans has
a lot of different options for you to choose from but now it would have moved over your line chats
and everything should be done hopefully this video is now showing you what you need to do to
move over those line chats using your ios device using your android device or maybe even just using
mobile trans and remember you can download mobile trans from the official mobile trans website and
