Backup or transfer LINE photos

[wn78]

So, apparently LINE chat history backup does not include photos and videos.  I will be moving to a new phone soon (Android), how do I transfer all my LINE chats with photos to the new phone, and I don't mean going to each individual chat and saving each photo one by one.

Nope.  Those instructions use Backup chat history - it does NOT backup photos.

As far as I know It's pretty much a no-go to transfer a mirror image of your chat history with photos....that is, make your chat history "along with photos" look exactly the same on the new phone as it did on the old phone.   The current LINE is simply not geared for mirror image transfers.

Yes, that's why I was hoping if there was another solution.  It's really mind boggling why Line would not include the photos in the backup, even as an option.  The equivalent backup function in WhatsApp does include the photos.  Among all messaging apps, Line wants to makes things really difficult when changing phones.
