While a call is on hold, you can add up to four (4) additional participants (1 + 4 = 5)
Make a Conference Call/Add a Caller
- When on an active or 'on hold' call, tap the
icon. - Select from the tabs, Recents, Contacts, or Keypad to dial the other participant.
- Once second call is connected, tap
to merge the calls. - Repeat to add more people to the conference call.
Tip: Contivio does not allow you to answer an incoming call while on a call. As such, there are no line-waiting conference calls (i.e., you can’t conference in a third party that calls you).
Warning: Your VoIP carrier can limit the number of conference participants. If this is the case, please contact your VoIP provider to open up more channels.
