Make a conference call from your iPhone

Set up a conference call on your iPhone with up to five people, if your network provider supports it.

The number of people on a conference call – and the ability to add, merge or disconnect callers – depends on your network provider. Contact your network provider for more information.

Start a conference call

  1. Dial the first person and wait for the call to connect.

  2. Tap the More button, then tap Add People.

Only the person who started the conference call can see the names of all participants. But if a participant adds someone else, they can see the name of the person they added and the person who started the conference call.

  1. If you're on a conference call and someone calls you, tap Accept to add the new caller to the conversation.
