If you're logged into the account you registered on the PC version of LINE

The following users will appear in your Friend recommendations:

• Users who have your phone number and are also using LINE (but you don't have their phone numbers).

• Users that knew your LINE ID and added you by searching it on LINE.

• Users who were in the same group or multi-person chat room and added you from the member list.

• Users who added you from your contact information (LINE account information) that was shared in a chat room by a different friend.

Note: If your contact information was shared, the user will only be able to see your name registered on LINE, profile photo, and status message.

• Users who added you from a URL in an invite email or using a QR code.
