Why are my iPhone headphones messing with my music?

This happened to my last iPhone ( 7) and now I have the iPhone X it's still happening. I'm always listening to music, I travel a lot and it's therapeutic. However now my headphones are causing Siri to pop up, my music to pause or restart and change. Why does this happen. I got my iPhone X in October and I'm not impressed, we pay so much money and then this happens. I think I will switch to Samsung next upgrade. Is there any way to fix this?

Ask Apple.

Apple should be able to explain it,
and that is who you should ask.

You have an intermittent open on the mic wire. Headphones buttons function by changing the impedance on that line.

Your only solution is new headphones.

This can happen with any device or headphone.

Try restarting

  • Why is Wi-Fi on iPhone 4 messing up? Whenever I connect to my network it says connected at the top (Shows the bars) But whenever I go to safari and type in for example, "www.google.com" it'll do the loading symbol then stop loading up and just show a blank screen… Guys please please help me resolve this issue.

  • Why Is My New iPhone 5C Messing Up? My iPhone 5C is messing up! Siri randomly pops up, even while I'm on Vine or YouTube! Same with my music! It will randomly play, also it will change the song randomly! The volume also changes! This is scaring me! Lastly, it was at 6.8 GB then a few minutes I set it down, when I get back to it, it says 4.4 GB! Reminder, I set it down for a while, so I didn't add anything! About an hour later, it returns to 6.8 GB! I'm scared this is a new bug!
  • Why is my iPhone messing up my texts? I've just recently gotten an iPhone. When I text my friends, every few message they receive is either not the entire message or the message has been turned into all these weird symbols that I don't even have on my phone. However, my phone shows the text exactly how I wrote it. Is this happening to anyone else? How do I fix it? Btw, I have an iPhone 4S.
  • Why is my iCloud messing up? I have an iPod Touch 4g and my mum has an iPhone 4. I'm getting an iPhone 5 for Christmas so I thought I'd back up my iPod to iCloud. Now, for some reason, whenever I sync to iCloud (which is all the time, automatically), my mum gets all the stuff that I've ticked in Settings. For example, I get her photo streams, contacts and notes. How can I fix this? We don't share the same iTunes account, or the same computer.
