Apple says that a bug which causes the controls on its new Lightning EarPods to stop working will be fixed in an upcoming software update.

The bug reportedly shows up after you've left the EarPods plugged into the iPhone 7 for a few minutes. Audio continues to function but the controls stop working, preventing you from adjusting volume, activating Siri, or answering calls.

You can temporarily bring back functionality by unplugging the EarPods and plugging them back in.

An Apple spokesperson told Business Insider the problem will be fixed in a future software update.

I don't have this problem. My controls still work well into 30 min listening to music.

It may be ok but it's not so good to keep like that I guess it's better to keep a pod rather than wireless
