    iPad Pro Why nobody ever mentions Wobble lines on iPad Pro?

    I still dont understand why nobody even mentioned how ******** pencil is. Perpendicular and horizontal strokes are fine but diagonal strokes are wobbly unless you do a fast stroke as you can see on the video. Other than that pen tip is too thick and pen is too heavy for a longer period of...

    iPad Can't write messages with Apple Pencil 2 in Whatsapp accessed via browser on iPad

    I have been trying to use my Pencil 2 to write messages in web.whatsapp.com, but the messages aren't sticking. Occasionally I have been able to get the second word I have tried to write to stick, but never the first word; and mostly nothing I write sticks in the message box. I have tried using...

    We need to talk about sustainability. [Apple pencil]

    Hi, everyone, in the recent years, Apple has advertised being a green company, going as far as not using plastic in their cables. However, not allowing batteries to be replaced in their Apple Pencils strikes me as a terrible move, which makes their discourse seem very superficial. We need to...

    iPad Air Air 4/Pro Pencil 2 charger part, standalone?

    Wondering if anyone has tried to source just the pencil 2 charging board and connect it to an external power source to create a hacky off-iPad charger? If the logic board that’s part of it handles the actual charging regulation and power negotiation I wonder if it would be possible. I can’t...

    All iPads It seems like Apple has some quality control issues when it comes to their Pencil tips. I made a video showcasing that.

    On another note, how many times can I screw and unscrew a Pencil tip before it wears down the gold connectors inside? Found myself screwing and unscrewing one time in a bout of anxiety, and I had to make multiple takes of this video before I got it right.
