Make restaurant reservations using LINE

You can use the LIFF app to make reservations at hair salons and restaurants, for example.

To prevent users from forgetting their appointment, the LIFF app can send reminders via LINE message when the appointment time is approaching.

Also, if the conditions are met, the user ID obtained from the LIFF app can be used to send not only reservation notifications, but also push messages for sales promotions, etc.
