Simple fix for annoying iPhone problem!

iPhone

As much as I love my iPhone (and I truly do), I have had one annoying problem for the past weeks and searched for a solution for as long. One day my headphone mic button just stopped working (and the mic as well). I could listen to music just fine but not use it as a headset, which is a real bummer, especially now that it is cold outside.

Nevertheless, I was browsing and searching for solutions today as well and I found one ingenious solution! It turns out that the headphone jack is a good place for fluff to gather, especially if you have your phone in your jeans (as I always have). The solution was to gently poke around with a paper clip and try to get the fluff out. Lo and behold as I did it and quite a bit of fluff came out! I can at least say that I’m glad to have it all back in working order. I also wanted to share this with y’all as I’m sure it gathers over time and more people will have this issue and with such a simple solution, I don’t think it should be as hard to find!

I’m hoping your christmas was really great and that you are looking forward to new years! I know I am (fireworks are awesome to photograph).
