LINE Introduces 'Cancel Sent Messages without Notification'
In a move to enhance user experience, LINE has unveiled a new feature for its LYP Premium subscribers, allowing messages to be canceled without leaving any traces if the recipient has not read them. Known as the 'Cancel Sent Messages without Notification', this functionality provides users with more control over their communications.
What is LYP Premium?
The LYP Premium service, offered by LINE Yahoo Corporation, is a subscription program that enhances the LINE experience by providing various benefits. Launched at a cost of 508 yen per month (tax included), it boasts over 1.5 million types of stickers and a host of other features like premium backup for chat history and customizable sub-profiles. This new feature is an added bonus that aligns with the needs of users who sometimes wish to retract their messages without leaving evidence of the cancellation.
The New Feature Explained
Users subscribed to LYP Premium can now cancel sent messages for up to seven days, provided the receiver has not read them. Unlike the standard message cancellation feature, which notifies the recipient of the cancellation, this new option allows users to opt out of sending the notification. It addresses popular demand from users who want to retract messages discreetly, reflecting the feedback from the community regarding the existing one-hour cancellation window.
This change comes in response to users’ requests for more flexibility in managing their communications. Previously, most users utilized the cancel feature within a short hour after sending messages. However, trends indicated a rising need for extending the time frame and discretion when canceling sent messages, leading to the development of this enhanced option.
User-Friendly Experience
The standard message cancellation process, available from December 2017, has been designed to maintain user experience while enabling trust in the communication platform. The new feature eases the burden of accidentally sent messages, allowing users to feel more secure while messaging.
As part of this rollout, LINE is also reducing the standard message cancellation period to one hour, effective immediately. However, the premium feature extends this period to a generous seven days, ensuring users have adequate time to reconsider their messages.
Conclusion
LINE's commitment to evolving user needs is evident in this update. The LYP Premium service not only aims to enrich individual communication experiences but also continually seeks to adapt and improve based on user feedback. As LINE continues the phased release of this feature, it promises to enhance user convenience on its platform. Subscribers eager to explore this new feature and more should consider signing up for LYP Premium through the LINE app.
