Line Euro-Americas Corporation, the company behind the massively popular messaging app ‘LINE’ and also the Pioneer of Stickers, Officially Launches a Keyboard App “Emoji LINE” to iOS and this is outside of its main app. The company made thousands of its emoji and animated stickers available directly in the iOS keyboard.
The app is globally available on iOS except in Japan, Thailand, and Taiwan… That’s a bit strange since those are its popular markets, but it’s probably a move to promote the service to other region where its services isn’t so popular.
The keyboard app offers over 3,000 fresh content, comprised of over 2,000 LINE animated stickers, regular stickers, and emoji, previously only available on LINE messenger but users can unlock 700 more “premium” stickers by signing up for the standard Line app.
“We hand-picked the best from more than 40,000 sticker sets and 6,000 emoji in the LINE app to be included in our new Emoji LINE keyboard app,” said Jeanie Han, CEO of LINE USA. “We’re committed to providing our growing creative and passionate community with the ultimate interactive communication experience.”
The launch of the Emoji LINE keyboard app represents another step forward in bringing the fun Japanese visual language with its rich history to the world. Line has been successful because of its ability to move beyond messaging and stickers alone. The service also allows users to play game inside the app, ‘which Facebook recently introduced to its Messenger app’.. and also has its own payments platform.
