What You’ll Need:
- iPhone 15
- 3.5mm Wired Headphones

Sometimes, when you connect headphones to your iPhone 15 using the adapter for the first time, a pop-up notification may appear on your iPhone’s screen. This notification is to confirm that you are connecting headphones. Confirm it to ensure the best audio experience.
With your headphones successfully connected, you’re all set to enjoy your music, podcasts, or make calls with your iPhone 15. The adapter ensures that your wired headphones work seamlessly with the USB-C port.
