Apple Pencil 2 working on other Ipad Pros but not mine
Hello everyone, So my issue here is that my apple pencil 2 stopped working suddenly while I was drawing, I took it to an apple store and they told me it was perfectly fine and worked on another ipad. When I connect it to my iPad, everything's fine and it shows the battery and everything. However when I try using it whether it be to scroll, write or draw it doesn't work at all. My ipad is perfectly fine as well, I am using a screen protector. I hope someone can give me a solution. Thank you very much

Reply to Apple Pencil Pairing Issues
I bought my new iPad pro 4th gen with a pencil 2 18 months ago. Went to charge it and found pencil not pairing.. did all the trouble shooting from online forums, then the apple call centre and then went to the apple store for their tech people to take a look. They concluded the pairing issue is a hardware issue. The iPad had to be replaced. iPad is out of warranty and so it was gonna cost me 600 bucks to replace it. To add insult to injury the replacement was only gonna have a 90 day warranty despite it being a new out of package product, albeit 4th gen. Apple wanted to credit us $300 for what is otherwise a perfectly good ipad. This policy of apple is sheer arrogance. We pay so much for their products. It is unreasonable for a $1300 product to fail in just 18 months. Australian consumer law would have protected me here if I were in Australia as they state that it is a lawful expectation that these products should be fail proof for 2 years. Custom

Getting incorrect force values on first touch - iPad Pro M2 / Apple Pencil 2
Hey, I am writing a drawing app for iPad and Apple Pencil. Since today I am getting weird readings from my Apple Pencil. The first 2-6 touches the UITouch event gives me a 0.33333333 force reading. After these first UITouches it continues reading correctly. It's very inconsistent between Pencil touches. It was working correctly earlier today. I thought I might have changed something in my code to cause it, but I reverted it to a prior state and it still kept happening. With the 0.333333 at the start I don't know what causes it, or if its a device problem. I tested with two pencils already.

How to increase the width of PencilKit .pen stroke?
The default PKInkingTool with inkType .pen seems to be limited in its stroke width. With a maximum width of around 25.66. Why is that? How can I increase it? Example code: canvasView.tool = PKInkingTool(.pen, color: .black, width: 10) print(canvasView.tool) //Prints: PKInkingTool(tool: ) canvasView.tool = PKInkingTool(.pen, color: .black, width: 20) //Prints: PKInkingTool(tool: ) //Problem starts here: canvasView.tool = PKInkingTool(.pen, color: .black, width: 30) //Prints: PKInkingTool(tool: ) canvasView.tool = PKInkingTool(.pen, color: .black, width: 100) //Prints: PKInkingTool(tool: ) How can I increase the stroke width? 🤔

Reply to Scrolling with Apple Pencil does not work in 9.3.
I hope they add an option to enable scrolling. To be honest using the pencil to scroll the entire surface area is a lot eaiser then using your finger. I know this is a first world problem, but my arm gets sore using the pencil seems to use less energy. ALSO more importantly I hope Apple realizes it super not convient to scroll with a Pencil in your hand. It just awkward to transition from Pencil to Finger vice versa.

Why did Apple charge me $14 USD (141 SEK) out of nowhere?
Today Apple charged me 141 SEK (≈$14 USD) out of nowhere. It was charged from my Apple ID that is on the Developer Program, and that Apple ID has no other subscriptions/other things that draws money: the only cost on this Apple ID is for the Developer Program. In January I paid 995 SEK, the yearly fee for the Developer Program here in Sweden. Now they charged me out of nowhere, and I can't understand why? I don't have any apps outside of the App Store.

Why is the Pencil delivering bad timestamps?
I'm posting a screen shot from my iPad to demonstrate a problem with touches delivered by the Apple Pencil. In the demo app, I stroke the pencil across the glass left to right. Each touch is drawn with a black dot, each coalesced touch is drawn with a red dot. For each touch I draw three data as whiskers perpendicular to the direction of motion. The green whisker represents the elapsed time since the last touch. The orange whisker represents the distance traveled since the last touch but magnified so that it's easier to see. The purple whisker is the velocity, that is, the orange whisker divided by the green whisker. On my 240Hz iPad Pro, the delta time should be a constant 4.166... milliseconds. Instead I get some 4 millisecond intervals, some 3 millisecond and some 5 millisecond. Look at the green whiskers. The smoking gun here is that the time intervals are EXACT integral millisecond values. (I see this in a log file that I'm not including here.) Someone someplace is rounding the

Two important feature suggestions that will benefit artists and Apple Pencil users worldwide
As a digital artist from China who creates concept art for large gaming companies, I absolutely love using the iPad Pro and Apple Pencil. I rely on them for long hours each day to complete my work. Apple Pencil's design is truly innovative, and I am eager to praise its developers. They are undoubtedly geniuses, and I have always appreciated Apple's intuitive design that feels natural and instinctual to use. However, there are two missing features that are crucial to artists and users alike. I find it surprising that these features have not yet been implemented by Apple or any third-party tools. Therefore, I am reaching out to the developers themselves for help in bringing these essential features to Apple Pencil users. The first feature is the inability to customize the location of the pencil's point of contact. I hope that a system-level setting can be added to allow for micro-adjustments of the stylus's nose position.
