How to create your first conference call
Before embarking on group calls , I recommend that you check with your operator if this option is included in your subscription. Not all plans offer conference call service..
For some operators, just make a phone call to technical support to activate the mobile conference option for free, while for others the service is chargeable. Also remember to find out about the rates charged. With some unlimited subscriptions, the conference call is billed at the cost of a local call while others charge extra. Enough blah-blah let's go straight to practical exercises.
- Take charge of your iPhone
- Call a person as you normally do
- Wait for your correspondent to answer
- Once online with him, press the button + new call
- Then select the person you want to add to the conference from your address book
- If it is not present in your contact list, you will need to type its phone number
- Wait for her to pick up, then click the Conference arrow icon to add this new contact to the conversation.
Now you can chat with three. To add another correspondent, simply click on the + new call button and reproduce the operations described above. Please note that the iPhone conference call system is limited to five participants. For those who would like to make a group call with more than 5 contacts, you will need to go through an instant messaging application like WhatsApp or Facebook Messenger.
