LINE avatars are chat discs—friends must recognize you at a glance
In Japan, Taiwan, Thailand, and other LINE markets, your profile photo is the stamp people see in every chat thread. A practical 640×640 square with the face centered beats a soft group selfie cropped from a VOOM square.
LINE circles clip the corners hard. Wide wordmarks and edge-only logos fail first. Fill most of the guide with one face or a simple brand mark.
WeChat profile photos use a similar square-to-circle habit (practical 640×640 here too). Cross-region brands can share a master, but still preview in LINE—stickers, themes, and list density differ.
Do not stretch a VOOM 1080×1080 post or an Official Account cover into this slot. Those surfaces need their own exports.
Good vs weak crop
Same circle mask—corners disappear; design for the tiny comment-size icon.

Design for chat lists first
Most recognition happens as a tiny disc beside a message preview. If someone cannot tell who you are at that size, the full profile view does not save the first impression.
- One face or simple mark beats a collage.
- Keep eyes inside the safe guide.
- Avoid thin rim text.
LINE vs WeChat profile photos
Both messengers use circular avatars from square uploads. Practical 640×640 works as a shared starting size for regional campaigns—but LINE and WeChat audiences, stickers, and themes are not the same product.
- WeChat profile picture — 640 × 640 practical
- LINE VOOM post — 1080 × 1080 — different job

Frequently asked questions
What size is a LINE profile picture in 2026?
A practical export is 640×640 (1:1). LINE shows it as a circle—keep the face inside the guide and preview in the app.
Same as a VOOM post?
No. VOOM posts often use 1080×1080 as a feed card. Profile photos are smaller chat circles.
Same as an Official Account cover?
No. OA covers are wide banners (practical 1100×600). Avatars are squares shown as circles.
Can I reuse a WeChat avatar?
Often as a starter at the same practical square size. Still preview the circle inside LINE.
Can I crop LINE avatars in the browser?
Yes. Files stay on your device until you download and upload to LINE yourself.
