Auto protocol selection handles the setup, so there's nothing to configure by hand.
Download VPN Super and sign in on your phone, tablet, or computer.
Tap Location and pick a server, or choose Fastest Location to auto-select the lowest-latency option. With 100+ locations in 60+ countries, there's usually another one to try if a connection struggles.
Connect, then open LINE. Your messages, calls, and account should work the way they do on your home network.
Pro tip: if LINE feels slow on a school or office Wi-Fi network, switch servers from the Location screen instead of restarting the app. Some networks throttle specific connections rather than blocking LINE outright.
LINE gets blocked for a few different reasons, and they're not all the same fix. Here's what's actually going on.
China's Great Firewall has blocked LINE's chat servers at the network level since 2014. Russia's telecom regulator ordered LINE blocked in 2017. Both target LINE's servers directly, not just certain content.
Some internet providers and public networks slow down or block messaging traffic without a formal government order. From the user's side, this can look identical to a country-level block.
Many schools and offices block messaging and calling apps to limit distractions or save bandwidth. These blocks apply on-site only and usually disappear on a different network.
LINE's own security system can ask for extra verification when it sees a sign-in from a new location or device. Connecting through a VPN makes this more likely, since your location changes.
| Country/Region | Status | Since |
|---|---|---|
| China | Blocked at the network level (Great Firewall) | 2014 |
| Russia | Blocked by government order (Roskomnadzor) | 2017 |
| Taiwan | Restricted on government office computers only, not a nationwide block | 2014 |
Still stuck after connecting? These are the most common LINE and VPN Super issues, and how to clear them.
| Issue | Solution guidance |
|---|---|
| LINE won't connect after I turn on the VPN | Disconnect from VPN Super, close LINE completely, reconnect, then reopen LINE. Some networks need the app to restart to pick up the new connection. |
| Calls drop but messages still send | Switch to a different server location, or try the Auto protocol setting. Voice and video need a more stable connection than text, so they're usually the first thing to suffer when a server isn't performing well. |
| LINE keeps asking for extra verification | This usually happens when LINE sees a sign-in from a new location or device. Reconnecting to the same saved server each time you use LINE can reduce how often this prompt appears. |
| Connected to the VPN, but LINE still looks blocked | Switch protocols from the home screen. On iOS and Android, V2Ray is designed to get through networks that specifically detect and block VPN traffic. |
| Messages are slow to send or calls sound choppy | Try Fastest Location for the lowest-latency server, or switch protocols from the home screen. Some networks handle certain protocols better than others. |
| The VPN disconnects on its own on Windows or Mac (beta) | Check for an app update, then try switching from WireGuard to OpenVPN if you're on Windows (Mac only supports WireGuard). If it keeps happening, restart the app and reconnect. |
| The free version feels slow for LINE | The free version on iOS and Android has fewer server locations than Premium. Try a different free-tier location first, or upgrade to Premium for the full 100+ locations in 60+ countries. |
Built for the platforms LINE runs on: iOS, Android, Windows, and Mac (beta).
LINE combines messaging with voice and video calls, and calls are usually the first thing to suffer on a slow connection. VPN Super is built to keep voice and video stable, so a call doesn't drop just because a message would still get through.
On Android, Split Tunneling lets you route LINE through VPN Super while other apps use your regular connection. Useful if you only need LINE unblocked and want everything else running at normal speed.
iOS and Android support Auto, Super, IKEv2, OpenVPN, and V2Ray. Windows supports Auto, OpenVPN, and WireGuard. Mac (beta) supports WireGuard. Auto picks a sensible option automatically, so there's nothing to configure by hand.
V2Ray, available on iOS and Android, is designed to resist deep packet inspection, the technique used to detect and block VPN traffic on restrictive networks. It's the same method behind LINE's 2014 block in China.
If one server feels slow or unreliable for LINE, switch to another, or try Fastest Location to auto-pick the lowest-latency option. More locations means more places to retry when one connection struggles.
Add up to 10 devices to one VPN Super account. Handy for LINE contacts who message and call across a phone, a tablet, and a desktop client, sometimes all in the same day.
VPN Super keeps no activity logs. What you message, call, or connect to on LINE isn't recorded.
On Windows and Mac (beta), VPN Super includes DNS and IPv6 leak protection, so your real location doesn't slip through during a brief reconnect on the desktop LINE client.
VPN Super's free version is available on iOS and Android, so you can test LINE access before committing to Premium. Windows and Mac (beta) are Premium only.
| Feature | Free VPN | Premium subscription |
|---|---|---|
| Devices per account | 1 device | Up to 10 devices |
| Server locations | Fewer locations | 100+ locations in 60+ countries |
| Ads | Ads shown | No ads |
| Split Tunneling (Android) | Available | |
| Desktop apps (Windows, Mac) | Available on Premium (Mac in beta) | |
| Activity logs | No activity logs | No activity logs |
VPN Super has 250K+ ratings on the App Store and 500K+ ratings on Google Play. Here's what a few users say about staying connected.
Amazing app! I've been able to access different applications that were once banned in my region
Great VPN with fast speeds and instant connection. Has no timeout and has many locations as well.
This is one of the best apps you can get if you're trying to access content while travelling internationally.
Answers to the questions people ask most before and after connecting.
Download VPN Super, sign in, and connect to a server. LINE works the same after that. Auto protocol selection handles the setup on iOS, Android, Windows, and Mac, so there's no manual configuration.
LINE's chat servers have been blocked at the network level in China since 2014 and in Russia since 2017. Some schools, offices, and public networks also block messaging apps locally, which isn't the same as a country-wide ban.
VPNs are legal in most countries, but rules vary. Check the laws where you live or where you're traveling before connecting.
LINE has been blocked by China's Great Firewall since 2014, so most users need a VPN to reach it there. A protocol built to resist deep packet inspection, like V2Ray on iOS and Android, tends to hold up better on this kind of network.
Some speed reduction is normal with any VPN because of encryption and routing. Picking a low-latency server with Fastest Location, and letting Auto choose your protocol, both help keep calls stable.
Yes, on iOS and Android. VPN Super's free version covers a smaller set of server locations than Premium. Windows and Mac (beta) are Premium only, with no free version on either.
Yes. Windows supports Auto, OpenVPN, and WireGuard, and Mac (beta) supports WireGuard. Both include DNS and IPv6 leak protection.
Start with Fastest Location. It automatically picks the server with the lowest latency at the time you connect. If LINE still feels slow, switch manually and compare the latency shown next to each server in the location list.
