Using All albums to view all of your albums at once
The All albums feature lets you check all of your albums from various chats.
The albums displayed in All albums include:
• Albums created in 1-on-1 chats with friends.
• Albums created in groups that you're a member of.
• Albums from hidden/deleted 1-on-1 and group chats.
The albums you can see in All albums will differ depending on your friend or group membership status at that time. If a friend deletes their LINE account, you'll still be able to see albums in your chat with them, but the albums will not appear in All albums. Similarly, if you're no longer a member of a group (because you left or were removed from it), the albums created in that group will not be displayed in All albums.
