Connecting EarPods Lightning Connector to an iPhone 7

I am trying to connect EarPods Lightning Connector earphones to an iPhone 7. These are a hardwire connection not wireless and with a microphone. EarPods not AirPods. Version is iOS 15.7.2.

Hello Rbflore,


We would like to see how we can help you with using your EarPods with your iPhone 7. Are you hearing no sound once the headphones have been connected to the iPhones Lightning port? Does this happen with all apps? Do the EarPods work with other Apple devices? Check out this link and get back to us with more details: If your headphones don't work with your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support


"If you can't hear any sound or if only one side of your headphones works

  1. Adjust the volume with the volume buttons on your iPhone or iPad, or use the Volume slider in Control Center on iPhone or Control Center on iPad
  2. To see if you need a replacement, try a second pair of headphones. If the second pair works, contact the manufacturer of the initial pair and ask if you need a replacement. If the second pair doesn't work, contact Apple Support. "


Cheers!
