Hello J27pRK27P6,


Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.


I understand that you want to make a conference call and merge calls. Take a look at this selection from the iPhone User Guide:


"Start a conference call

With GSM, you can set up a conference call with up to five people (depending on your carrier).

Note: Conference calls may not be available if your call is using VoLTE (Voice over LTE) or Wi-Fi Calling.

  1. While on a call, tap Add Call, make another call, then Tap Merge Calls.
  2. Repeat to add more people to the conference.
  3. During the conference call, do any of the following:
    • Talk privately with one person: Tap , then tap Private next to the person. Tap Merge Calls to resume the conference.
    • Add an incoming caller on the same line: Tap Hold Call + Answer, then tap Merge Calls.
    • Drop one person: Tap  next to a person, then tap End."
