Well, of course. They gave it a new name, therefore they created it.It's only available with the M2. Of course this functionality has been very common for the last 15 years on Windows.
Just saying
But alas, Apple has inverted it anew (the same), and will take full credit, no doubt.
it is, we tested on the M1 ipad pro that we have and it works but its garbage...the tip must be under 10mm distance and the accuracy is very strange and not reliable
its a very nice feature for drawing and controlling palette of couloirs, sizing and accuracy
What in the actual fu**??!! It's actually true! I tried it in sidecar and it totally works! Only with very low proximity to the screen but totally usable.
Whoa I didn’t know it works in Sidecar too, awesome! I just saw a video of someone with an M1 iPad demonstrating it in Reddit, but it looked like the tip had to be super close to the screen. Hopefully it works a lot better with M2. This is great, I’ve been wanting this for a long time.
Apple should market it as game changer to justify the price increase, lol.
It’s a huge feature that’s been missing on iPad for me. Hover allows more precise stylus use. And it’s funny you say change cursor design, because it changes the cursor shape and size based on your selected brush/pen, so you know what your mark is going to look like, which is very helpful. Also useful for seeing extra information like the name of a button, at least on desktop OSes.
