How to Combine Videos on iPhone and Computer

Q: I shot quite a few short videos on my mom’s birthday the other day and now I want to turn these very short videos (no longer than 3 minutes) into a single movie but can't seem to figure out how to do it. I did it once before successfully but it was so long ago and I no longer remember what I did. Can anybody tell me how to combine videos on iPhone?
