Introduction to LINE Number Filtering

Are you tired of dealing with endless spam messages and unwanted contacts on LINE? Say goodbye to the chaos with the power of LINE number filtering! This feature allows you to screen and manage your contacts more effectively, ensuring a smoother and cleaner messaging experience. Here are some tips and tricks to help you make the most out of this handy tool.

Setting Up Number Filtering

First things first, let’s get started with setting up number filtering on your LINE account.

  1. Open your LINE app and go to the “Settings”.
  2. Scroll down to the “Advanced” section and tap on “Block List”.
  3. Tap on the “+” sign to add a new number to your block list. You can enter the phone number manually or by importing it from your contacts.
  4. Once added, the number will be blocked from sending you any messages or friend requests.

Using Patterns for Broad Blocking

If you find yourself receiving messages from numbers that follow a specific pattern, such as those starting with a certain prefix, you can block them all at once.

For example, if you notice a lot of spam coming from numbers that start with 82**, 83**, or 84**, you can block all numbers starting with those prefixes by simply entering the prefix followed by a wildcard character (*).

Here's how:

  1. Go to the “Block List” in the “Settings” menu.
  2. Tap on “Add by Number Pattern”.
  3. Enter the prefix you want to block, followed by a * (asterisk).
  4. Tap “OK” and all numbers matching the pattern will be blocked.

Importing Phone Numbers from Contacts

Managing your contacts manually can be a hassle. Fortunately, LINE allows you to import phone numbers directly from your device’s contact list.

  1. Tap on the “+” sign in the “Block List”.
  2. Select “Import from Contacts”.
  3. Choose the contact or contacts whose numbers you want to block.
  4. Tap “OK” to add them to your block list.

Revoking Blockings

If you accidentally block someone or realize you need to communicate with a blocked number, don’t worry. You can easily unblock a number.

To unblock:

  1. Go to the “Block List” in the “Settings” menu.
  2. Tap on the number you want to unblock.
  3. Choose “Unblock”.

Monitoring Blocked Numbers

LINE provides you with an option to see who has been blocked and when. This can be useful for keeping track of any new or recurring spam numbers.

To view your blocked numbers:

  1. Access the “Block List” from the “Settings” menu.
  2. Tap on the number to see when it was added to the list.

Final Thoughts

By utilizing the number filtering feature on LINE, you not only enhance the security and privacy of your account but also streamline your daily communication process. Take some time to set up and manage your block list effectively, and you’ll appreciate the peace of mind it brings.
