LINE Music is one of the most popular music streaming services in Japan, with a huge catalog of J-Pop, anime soundtracks, K-Pop and more. While the app delivers excellent streaming quality, many Android users quickly run into the same frustration: there’s no official way to download LINE Music songs on Android as MP3 files or save them permanently.
This guide will explain why downloading LINE Music on Android is so restrictive and walk you through how to save your favorite tracks directly to your phone using a LINE Music Android downloader.
If you use LINE Music on Android, you've probably experienced many limitations and frustrations while using it every day.
| Limitation | What It Means |
| Subscription Restrictions | Offline downloads stop playing once the subscription ends.Free-plan users can only play 30-second previews. |
| DRM & Format Lockdown | Songs can’t be saved as MP3 or transferred to other devices.Offline cache only works inside the LINE Music app. |
Individually, these limitations may seem minor, but together they significantly reduce your freedom as a listener. Even if you're paying for a subscription, you still can't truly "own" your music. You can't keep the songs as regular files, play them in other apps, or move them between devices.
If these issues sound familiar, don't worry — in the next section, we'll introduce a powerful yet easy-to-use LINE Music Android downloader to help you regain full control over your LINE Music collection.
Read this guide to learn how to download all your favorite songs from LINE Music to your computer unlimitedly, and you can enjoy them anywhere forever!
NoteBurner LINE Music Downloader for Android is designed to solve all these issues in a simple and user-friendly way. It runs directly on your Android device — no computer, cables, or complicated setup required. With just a few taps, you can convert your LINE Music tracks into real, offline audio files in MP3, AAC, FLAC, or WAV formats.
Whether you want to loop your favorite songs in another music player, import them into editing apps for mixes, or back them up to your personal drive, NoteBurner makes the entire process fast, flexible, and hassle-free.
Step 1 Install and launch NoteBurner LINE Music Downloader for Android. Then, log in to your LINE Music account.
Installing the APK on a recent phone: Android doesn't install APKs from outside Google Play by default. When you open the downloaded file, tap Settings in the prompt and allow "Install unknown apps" for the browser or file manager you used, then go back and install. On Android 15 and later you may also see a "Restricted setting" message after installing; if so, open Settings > Apps > NoteBurner, tap the three-dot menu and choose Allow restricted settings. This is standard behavior for any app installed outside Google Play.
Note: After purchasing the full version, you can also use the same account on Windows or macOS to download and organize your LINE Music library.
Step 2 Click the green "Add" button on the right, then select the song you want to download.
Step 3 Choose the output format (MP3, AAC, FLAC or WAV) and quality.
Step 4 Tap the "Confirm" button, and NoteBurner will start downloading LINE Music songs to your Android phone.
Step 5 After conversion, tap the "Library" tab. Your LINE Music songs are now saved as local files.
Since your files are now real audio files (rather than temporary encrypted caches), you can utilize them in dozens of practical ways — ways that LINE Music itself does NOT support.
On a Mac, LINE Music is only available through the web player with no offline mode. This article shows how to download LINE Music songs to your Mac for offline listening.

Yes, as long as you download the APK from the official NoteBurner website. Check the permissions it asks for during installation, and see the privacy policy for how your data is handled.
Yes. Without logging into LINE Music Premium, only 30-second preview clips are available.
NoteBurner keeps the best audio quality of the LINE Music stream (up to 320kbps). You can save the songs as 320kbps MP3 or AAC, or choose FLAC (lossless compression) or WAV (uncompressed) if you want a file with no further encoding. Keep in mind that FLAC or WAV won't add quality beyond what the stream provides.
