A free alternative voice-over-IP application with timeline feature.

LINE is a cross-platform text, video and audio chat application which allows you to make free international telephone calls and share multimedia files with friends. If you're familiar with Skype and WhatsApp, you might call it a mixture of both of these programs.

The program integrates text messaging like WhatsApp, voice-to-voice calling like Skype and instant messaging features like Windows Live Messenger to create LINE. Video and audio calls are easy to make and leaves little guess work involved with using the program.

Group chats, voice and video calls

A notable feature of LINE is the program allows you to join and create groups with a number of people. Not only can users in groups add text to the chats, but it also supports the making of audio calls similar to three-way calling but with more than 1 extra user.

When using the program on a desktop PC, notifications appear when new messages are received. This is a great way of avoiding your mobile phone when you're busy working on the computer. It's also a good way to use your full keyboard as opposed to a touchscreen to type messages.

Support across multiple platforms including Android and Mac

The bonus of using LINE is that it is developed for many different platforms such as smartphones, tablets, notebooks and even a Mac OS X version. All you need to do in order to use the program with friends is to make sure they have it installed on whatever device they opt to use.

The audio quality when making VoIP calls with LINE is excellent and in addition, allows you to create group chats just like the popular feature in WhatsApp.

Since this program is available for many different platforms, it is much more flexible than other programs like WhatsApp.
