Once you get over the fact
that Apple's earbuds are called EarPods™ you can start to appreciate all the
cool things you can do with them. You can answer and decline calls,
fast-forward and rewind songs, take pictures, and more with your Apple
earphones. Oh yeah, and you can also adjust the volume up and down.
Fast-forwarding
and rewinding and skipping between music tracks and video chapters only works
if the app you are using supports it. (For example, you can't skip back to a
previous song in Apple Music Radio, so you can't do it with your EarPods
either. But you will be able to skip to the next song.)
