The iPhone headphones (or any headphones with a mic and remote) can control your iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch in up to 10 different ways.
It’s never too late to discover that those boring, all-white headphones Apple threw in with youriPhone can do a lot more than adjust the volume.
In fact, any headphones that include a remote (or have a remote adapter attached) can be used to control your iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch in up to 10 ways.
Thanks to this post by Business Insider, here are all the ways you can use your headphones as a remote controller, allowing you to perform useful functions without taking your iDevice out of your pocket.
- If you’re listening to music, toggle pause or play by tapping the center button once.
- To fast-forward a song, tap the center button twice and long-press on the second tap.
- To rewind a song, tap three times and long-press on the third tap.
