Think about how boring your morning commute or evening workout would be without music to keep you going. The right sounds can make even difficult tasks more manageable, which is why many people rely on their iPhones to store hundreds of songs to shuffle through on a regular basis. But if you find that your are having trouble with your headphones, the problem could lie in a clogged jack on the device. It's very easy to keep this part of your phone clean, you just need to make sure that you use a light touch in order to avoid causing any damage.

Here are a few tips for cleaning out your iPhone's headphone jack:

  • Air can: One of the easiest ways to clean out a headphone jack that is filled with dust and other debris is to blow into it with a can of compressed air. This will effectively clear out whatever has accumulated inside.
  • Lint roller: To create your own kind of homemade lint roller, all you need to go is straighten out a paper clip and attach a very small piece of tape to the end of it. Then simply scrape out dust and other pieces by having it stick to the tape.
  • Q-tip: Carefully insert a dry Q-tip into the jack and scrub around until you have removed everything. With this technique you need to be sure that you are very gentle, as any major force could end up damaging the iPhone permanently.
