Apple pencil behavior

[juanm]

Hi, I’m using the Apple pencil to annotate a pdf book in iBooks, but there’s a few things that are very annoying and I wondered if there was a way to change it:
The annotate button is at the top. Ergonomically it’s a very bad place for it to be. Is it possible to have the ipad detect that we’re touching the screen with the pencil, and just write with it, and when it detects we’re using our fingers, just behave normally (move around and turn pages)? otherwise I spend my time going in and out of the annotate mode.

The pencil works great, but it’s poorly implemented.

Maybe another app?

You can write with the pencil automatically (you dont have to tap the annotation button).

How? It just moves the document around as if it were just a finger.

Okay, I’ll just use the files app, thanks! I just wanted to know whether it was a setting on my ipad or the normal behavior.
