Breakout Rooms Instructions?

According to this webpage: https://www.freeconferencecall.com/press-center/pr012510.html#:~:text=To%20initiate%20a%20breakout%20session,number%20and%20participant%20access%20code.

freeconfrencecall.com is supposed to be able to do breakout rooms. How do I actually do this? I can’t find any instructions anywhere. Thanks

Here’s another link that seems to indicate that you can do breakout rooms on freeconferencecall.com

Our service offers the ability to do breakout rooms by pressing *3 on the phone. You can find the complete instructions by going to our support page followed by host instructions.

Is it possible on desktop application?

This is quite a hidden feature in the desktop app
First you need to find the keypad (see the instruction from this post How to upgrade yourself to the host if you joined as a participant)
Then you can use DTMF commands explained above (like *3).

We know it is not convenient. We have plans to have better support of break out rooms in the application.

We are currently improving our breakout rooms to allow the host to be able have this control and will be released in the upcoming weeks. The new updates will also allow the host to control the number of breakout rooms that are available, be able to set time limits for the breakout rooms and other controls as well.
