Why does my iPhone 6S keep saying Voice Control and interrupting my music?

I listen to music on my phone a lot, and lately it's become nearly impossible because every few seconds, even if my display is off (it usually happens as I'm putting the phone into my pocket) it pauses, a menu comes up saying "Voice Control" and giving me a bunch of different options such as "previous track" or "who is this song by?" This is unbearably irritating. I don't know what is causing this feature to activate, but I don't want to use voice control anyway, and I have been unable to figure out how to turn it off. I've been all over the Settings menu and see nothing.
Also strange, sometimes as this happens, my music will play at double speed in between closing the menu and it reopening itself.

If this happens while using earphones or headphones with an inline mic I think the issue is you mic button (it used to happen to me), it's not completely faulty for it to happen all the time but it probably randomly sends the phone the signal that you're keeping the button pressed to activate Siri or voice control (if Siri is off) and also keeping it as a double and hold press to fast forward or skip songs randomly.

Try with another pair of earphones to determine if this is the issue. If it doesn't resolve it, I would recommend restoring your phone. Like I said I used to have a faulty pair of earphones and would randomly do that to me.

  • Why does voice control keep activating? I have an iPhone 5 & for the past few days voice control keeps activating by itself. I have switched off voice dialling but it's STILL calling people. I'm also having issues with my home button, sometimes it won't close the app I'm in, nor will the home option in assistive touch. I've had this phone since May 2013 & not had a problem with it. How do I fix this? It's impossible to do anything on the stupid thing now & it's driving me crazy!
  • Why does my iPhone keep saying this I'm trying to download the GTA 3 app and its a little over 400mb. I have 1.2gb free of space (more than enough) why won't it download! I've already deleted a ton of apps and pictures and still nothing. I'm getting mad! :/
  • Why does my iphone 5s keep on saying 'no service' i just got it about 20 mins ago? My dad just bought me an iphone 5s about 15-20 minutes ago. I just got home and wanted to call my friend but it said 'No Service'.So I asked my sister and she said her iphone was able to call and text immediately after her purchase. I would like to fix this problem by tonight if not tomorrow. I also tried the airplane mode method and it didn't work.
  • Why does my iPhone 5s iOS 7.1.1 keep saying waiting for activation? I've been doing everything for it to work and nothing is happening. I'm starting to get irritated and I went to Apple.com and there are other people complaining about imessage and face time. I need some help As soon as possible!
