pencil

Hello guys, I've been using the iPad Pro 2018 + Apple Pencil 2 and it's been going great but I notice that when I try to use an app like notes or notability if I try to write/draw near the top and down bezels (if the iPad is in the normal vertical position) the pencil is not detected. This...

The new iPad Air / Mini states they are "Compatible with Apple Pencil (1st generation)". What is it about the 2nd Generation Pencil that would not allow it to work? Why would Apple release a new product and only make it compatible with an already old Pencil?

After watch numerous you tube videos saying the pencil 2 tip was the same as the pencil 1, i had opportunity to try it out in the Apple Store today. Pencil 2 tip is much softer, with enhanced drag. Dare I say it--it feels like Surface pen! I love it. Has anyone else noticed this? Does...

It happens to me sometimes - I'm working in Procreate or CSP and the Pencil registers a double tap although I didn't actually tap it twice - and changes the tool. I do move it around in my hand slightly and often adjust my hold so this could be it - but then again, when I actually try to...

I've been an iPad Pro user for 2 months, and I haven't been able to master the touch screen. Regardless of how carefully I place the pencil on the screen, I tend to unintentually open, close or scroll past items or links. Some apps are more frustrating to navigate than others - the News app is...

After about 1½ years of daily use my iPad Pro 10.5 and Pencil show battery wear. Cocoanut Battery shows the iPad at 78% of design capacity with only 290 cycles. The Pencil does not seem to go above 80% charge. The main thing is that I used to be able to use it all day with plenty left when...

Started out just two grey spots on the pencil but has become worse over time. Both 1 month old and now the iPad two light scuffs that match up with the two on the pencil(Clearly seen in the picture). Anyone else have this problem? Should I be worried?

Hey guys, I've always done my illustrations using a wacom board + Mac but I'm looking to switch to an iPad / Apple Pencil setup. A buddy of mine has the iPad Pro 9.7" with Pencil and he uses ProCreate, then imports to his computer to do the final touches. Will the setup with the Pencil run...

Quick question, I am a teacher. We use iPads at school and have teacher iPads. Model at the back is A1893. Is my iPad compatible with the Apple pencil? I would like to get the pencil for Christmas and just want confirmation it is compatible! Thanks

I had every generation of iPad Pro so far (all 12.9”) - it’s practically my primary work tool. I am an Art Director in a relatively small game develompent company and I often do quick sketches to explain ideas to team members and also concept art from time to time. Nothing beats the Pencil for...

I have changed from an iPad Pro Gen 2 to Gen 3 12.9”. My Gen 2 had a third party case which had an integrated Pencil holder - loved it. I use Pencil a lot so keeping the two items together works well for me. Thought I would try a keyboard case and, due to lack of options, have gone with an...

I decided to order the 11" iPad late (just did today), and the shipping date is Nov 21st - 27th for the Pencil (separate order). Anyone surmise a guess as to what it'll be like the first week in Apple Stores trying to get a new Pencil? The first time around in 2015 it was a mess -- big...

I'm moving to the IPP from the Air 2, so I have no experience with the pencil, but I know that when I bought the Air 2 and people were using 3rd party styli with it, there were issues with people scratching their screen. Is this a concern with the Pencil and the IPP? Do most people use...

I have always loved iMac, it’s my favorite computer since I first got it in 2007. But lately there’s has been lackluster updates from Apple. Nothing that quite captures one’s imagination and attention as the white candy iMac did back in the day. Not to even talk about the lamp. That was crazy...

What’s the scuttlebutt? I’m looking to get a second Apple Pencil (for home office, first Pencil lives in my bag). I’m really hoping for some improvements in the next gen so I held off on the slim chance there’d be an announcement at WWDC but of course no. Anybody know what the current rumors are...

I tried a number of sketch apps from the store like: - Photoshop Sketch - Notes app - Concept - Paper and some others But what I'm missing in almost all of them is an infinite canvas to draw on. As a UX designer I need to sketch a lot in order to transfer ideas to something tangible during...

DISREGARD. I figured out it was because zoom was turned on in iOS. Ha — Is anybody else noticing really strange Pencil line behavior when your palm is touching the screen? Lines are sometimes lagging heavily, sometimes showing up dotted instead of solid, and sometimes disappearing. It’s not...

hey guys, Anyone running into trouble using the Apple Pencil while interacting with multitasking... seems like I should be able to make the dock appear or resize the split screen using the pencil but it’s not working for me...anyone having similar issues? Hope that Apple fixes this with the...

After recently having bought the new 10.5 inch model after having owned the 9.7 model I experienced an issue in the App I use the most every day: OneNote. I use it for all work related note taking, which is _a lot_. Disclaimer: Prior to thinking about posting in these forums I asked about this...
