Is this feature only available to pro models or is this another “coming soon”, I’m not seeing it as an option yet and I need to fix my chimpanzee handwriting lol
I guess it needs a Mx.I read on the apple web site for smart script:
Available on iPad Pro (M4), iPad Pro 12.9-inch (5th generation and later), iPad Pro 11-inch (3rd generation and later)
Which I really don't get, supported on 11inch 3rd Gen iPad Pro but not 12.9 inch 3rd Gen iPad Pro (what I have), very similar hardware and one is supported that other not ??
Anyone know why ?
A.
But the 3rd gen iPad Pros both 11 and 12.9 are not Mx, but the 11 is supported and the 12.9 is not, this is what I don't understandI gess it needs a Mx.
Ahh I see it, says I need to be connected to WiFi to set it up, thank youit's in the 'more...' menu of the pencil kit tray in the notes app.
Re your last point, in PDF markup there is the option for me but it says it will enable when connected to wifi (which I already am). I'm hopeful that other apps will be able to switch it on once they've integrated the new pencil kit API...Would never have thought to look in that particular menu to set this up. Apple certainly has a way about burying the settings for featured features in obscure places. And they wonder why some have such low adoption rates.
It does work. My handwriting is bad even on paper is really bad. On glass it's even worse. So this could be a game changer. So far, as noted above, it's subtle. Perhaps as it learns my handwriting (ha!) it will get even better. I don't want Comic Sans, but I also want to be able to read what I write, which has been the principal impediment to my using the Pencil to take notes.
Now to see if this is a PencilKit universal feature or just in Notes.

Are you in the US? This feature is working for me.Mine is still saying functionality will download when connected to WiFi, even though I’m on WiFi…

I’m getting that message in 3rd party apps, but working in Apple NotesMine is still saying functionality will download when connected to WiFi, even though I’m on WiFi…
You can turn off in the settings and you can have off by default and highlight to apply the feature. I am finding it is learning my style and improving over time.I got this "feature" and it's horrible - fills the note with mis-understood suggestions, the replacement word looks nothing like the one you wrote (they can't even match the line style for some reason). And there is no way to disable it.

Oh gotcha - yea I thought you were referring to a setting for auto refine versus the blue line thing - would be nice to have that turned off too - maybe they’ll add that during the beta cycle@musicpenguy Where exactly in the settings? I found a toggle for “auto-refine handwriting”, but it does not affect the highlighted suggestions.
No actually. Craig F elaborated on what it takes to bring the benefits of typing to handwriting during his Daring Fireball interview.I don't want it to learn my style lol
Replace my scrawl with something that looks like legible handwriting, surely that's easier than analyzing my handwriting?
If you want that, just use the scribble feature which replaces your handwriting with typed text.I don't want it to learn my style lol
