iPhone how to: Making conference calls

Communicating with the iPhone is easier and you can talk with more than one person at a time, or merge up to five calls, depending on your service provider.




Note that conference calling may be an optional service in some countries. Contact your carrier for more information.

How to create a conference call:
1. Make a call.
2. Tap Add Call and make another call. The first call is put on hold.
3. Tap Merge Calls. The calls are merged onto one line and everyone can hear each other.
4. Repeat steps two and three to add up to five calls.

How to drop one call:
Tap Conference and tap next to a call. Then tap End Call.

How to talk privately with a call:
Tap Conference, then tap Private next to a call. Tap Merge Calls to resume to conference.

How to add an incoming call:

If your service includes conference calling, iPhone always has a second line available in addition to the conference call.
