Q: Voice memos not showing up when I plug microphone into iPod nano
Either my iPod nano (7 gen) or my Apple earpods are having issues. I ordered brand new Apple earpods, mainly for the purpose of recording Voice Memos. However, when I plug these into my iPod, no Voice Memos option appears on my home screen. Also, the little control on the wire of the earpod also does not work, although I can listen to music perfectly and the speakers are good. The only thing I can think of is that I dropped my iPod a few months back, and the earphone jack dented a tiny bit. It didn't affect listening and the iPod functioned perfectly. Is there any way that could be the cause of the Voice Memos and control not working? I am 99.5% sure the issue is not with the headphones. Ideas would be immensely appreciated!
iPod nano, iOS 9.1
