Did You Know Your EarPods Work as a Remote Shutter Button for Photos?

Have you ever wanted to compose the perfect photo with the Camera app on the iPhone and then been unable to tap the shutter button without jiggling the iPhone and blurring your photo? This happens to me when I try to take a selfie more than not (I’m new at the selfie game). One solution is to press one of the volume buttons on the side, but that sometimes doesn’t work either. Well if you have your EarPods connected to your iPhone, you can also press one of the volume buttons on the EarPods to take a photo. Bonus tip—the EarPods’ buttons also work to start and stop video recording!
