Finnish phone maker, Nokia has introduced the LINE messaging app in the Nokia store to run on Nokia Lumia and Asha full touch ranges including dual Sim: Asha 305, 308, 309, 310 and 311.
LINE is a messaging application for smartphones, well-known for its lovable sticker characters. For its first Asha app, LINE will unveil four varieties of default stickers – Moon, Cony, Brown and James – while enabling 1:1 chat and group chat.
“LINE will take advantage of our Nokia Notifications API solution allowing consumers to receive chat notifications in the background, saving memory, data and battery consumption. Another key advantage for the Kenyan market, is that LINE works on both single and dual Sim, providing choice across the Asha full touch range.” Said Nokia’s Head of Product Marketing for East Africa, King’ori Gitahi
LINE, which currently boasts 130 million users in over 240 countries, also has other worthwhile features such as the ability to block certain users, turn off your public ID and stop people from automatically adding you to their friends list.
