One common way to teleconference using your phone is by merging existing calls together. This method allows you to connect multiple people into a single conversation directly from your mobile device.
This process involves calling participants sequentially and using your phone's built-in features to combine the active calls into a conference.
Step-by-Step Guide to Merging Calls for a Teleconference
Follow these steps to initiate a teleconference by merging calls, based on the provided information:
- Dial the first person and wait for the call to connect.
- While the first call is active, Tap Add. This action puts the first person on hold and allows you to initiate a new call.
- Select the second person you wish to add to the conference (either from your contacts or by dialing their number), and wait for this second call to connect.
- Once the second call is connected, Tap Merge Calls. This action combines the first and second calls, creating a three-way conference call.
After completing step 4, the two calls merge into a single conference call.
To add additional people to the ongoing teleconference, simply repeat steps 2-4 for each new participant you wish to include.
By following these steps, you can quickly set up a multi-party teleconference directly from your phone.
