We are beyond thrilled to introduce to you the new version of Line2 for Android.  Line2 for Android has been completely rebuilt to incorporate long awaited feature requests and state of the art technologies.  This new version gives Line2 users the ability to maximize the potential of their favorite Android devices, running versions from Gingerbread to Jellybean and beyond.  The new Line2 for Android is a fully customizable, fully powered, mobile communications tool.

Line2 users can access their account from any Android device to place and receive crystal clear calls, SMS and MMS.  With Tri-mode calling, calls can be placed over WiFi, 3G/ 4G LTE data, or cellular networks.

The new Line2 for Android features:

• Unparalleled voice quality - the state of the art Opus codec makes Line2 calls sound like living room conversations. 
• True mobility - Line2 works on any network (WiFi, 3G/ 4G LTE data, cellular) and across both iOS and Android devices.
• Cloud sync - calls ring on whatever device the user is logged into at that time, while calling activity and messages are stored in the cloud.
• Enhanced user experience - the redesigned Line2 for Android runs faster and more intuitively. 
• Contact integration - Line2 uses the contacts stored on your device, making it easy to stay in touch with the people you communicate with the most.
• A beautiful interface - The Holo Dark design theme and action make Line2 for Android stand out among VoIP apps.
• Multi-tasking - Now you can talk and text at the same time. Use Line2 to get more done.
• Take it anywhere - You can take a Line2 number anywhere in the world and call back to the States over WiFi for free.

Line2 for Android is a free download in the Google Play store.  Service Plans start at $9.95 a month with no contract for unlimited calling and texting.  Line2 Pro, at $14.95 a month, gives small business and families access to an auto-attendant, toll-free numbers, SimulRing forwarding, convenient billing and more.

Great news, Line2 users! (We really should come up with a nickname for you guys - contest?)

Version 9.0 of Line2 for iOS is here!  This is a major update for a number of reasons:

Line2 is the first app to feature the new state of the art in voice technology, the Opus audio codec.  Opus provides unmatched voice quality over WiFi, 3G and LTE, with lower bandwidth requirements.  iPhone to iPhone calls using Line2 9.0 are crystal clear.

For more information on Opus, check out the video below:

• Line2 9.0 is iPhone5 and iOS6 optimized, with a beautiful new keypad for the Retina display. And the connectivity issues that you've been having since iOS6 came out have been addressed!
• We're also excited to announce that with Line2 9.0, auto-renewing subscriptions are now available through the iTunes App Store for $9.99 a month. 

So, don't wait, get on board with Line2 version 9.0!

If you already have a Line2 account, please perform the following steps to uninstall, and then reinstall Line2:

To delete the Line2 application from your device, press and hold the Line2 icon until the icon begins to shake. Once this happens, an “X” will appear on the top-right corner of the icon for you to press. This deletes the application. Then, please power off your device.  Leave it off for a minute and then turn it back on.

Once your device has powered up again, reinstall the app. To ensure the latest software version is downloaded to your device, make sure you are not tethered to your machine- you don't want to sync the last version of the app.  Visit the iTunes App Store on your device, search for “Line2” and download the application.  Choose 'Log In' and sign in with your Line2 number and password.

Please note: Line2 9.0 requires iOS5 or later.
