Rich messages let you make compact and easy-to-understand ads by combining images, text, and multiple links in a single message. More visual impact means you can grab users' attention and promote your business more effectively than with regular text messages.

Rich video messages give you more options for sending videos to users:

• Video messages automatically play back.

• Display videos in portrait or landscape and choose from a number of aspect ratios. You even have the option to fill up the chat screen if the video is in portrait mode.

• Insert links to guide viewers to external websites for more information.

Unlike regular videos sent in chats, rich video messages cannot be saved, forwarded, or shared on LINE VOOM by users. If you have a video that you want your users to be able to view only, be sure to send it in a rich video message.

Note: You can only create rich video messages from the browser version of LINE Official Account Manager (not the app).

You can send messages to randomly selected recipients from your friends list by setting a broadcast volume.

Note: If you're filtering friends by demographic, be sure that the number of recipients is set to 50 or more people.

To set a broadcast volume, follow the steps below.

From the LINE Official Account app:

1. Tap the account you want to configure in the Accounts list.

2. Tap Broadcast > Create broadcast > + Add.

3. Select a message type, create your message, then tap Next.

4. Turn ON Broadcast volume and enter the number of messages you want to send.

From the browser version of LINE Official Account Manager:

1. Click the account you want to configure in the Accounts list.

2. Click Broadcast > Create new.

3. Check the box next to Set broadcast volume and enter the number of messages you want to send.

The maximum broadcast volume you can set is limited by available demographic data. Since not all user demographics can be estimated, the number of users shown for "Maximum message count" may differ from the number of users listed for statistics displayed on other pages.

Also, the number of users shown for "Maximum message count" may vary over time, as these statistics are updated regularly. Because it takes around three days for the latest demographic data to be reflected, broadcasts sent with a set broadcast volume are based on demographic data from around three days ago.
