The button of (wired) earphone does not work.

I was using my iPhone SE(1st Gen.) with iOS 13.7.

Last week, I upgraded it to iOS 15.3.1 and I found there is a problem today.

My earphone(wired, bundle) dosen't work well.

When a call comes, I cannot receive the call by pressing the center of earphone button.


Volume control(+/-) works good.

Only the action by pressing center does not work after iOS 15.3.1 upgraded.


Why this happened?

Apple does not like using wired earphone anymore?

iPhone SE

Hello,

Hmm, check the charging port for lint or other debris and see this:

Use Apple headphones with your iPhone, iPad, and iPod   

If your headphones don‘t work with your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch 

Good luck.
