The scribble functionality for the iPad (using Apple Pencil 2) isn't working as good as it was before (on iOS 15+). I take daily journals and set the title as follows: "YYYY-MM-DD". Previously, the scribble could detect everything ideally and matched the "no spaces" and all the numbers. With iOS 16 beta, most of the time, it ends up catching up something like this: "YYYY - MM M- DD". This is irritating since I have to go and delete the third digit for the month, and remove the spaces that scribble applies in between symbols.

I have specifically mentioned textView.autocapitalizationType = .none but when an input is done with Apple pen, the words entered will be automatically changed to Capital letter for the first word and other middle words which are originally entered as capitalized words being changed to small letters. If using keyboard for text input, no such issue. Even when I change the setting->keyboard, turn off autocapitalization, the words will still be changed to Capital letter for first words and other words all to small letters as long as using Apple pen. How can I programmatically forced the input by Apple pen to be exactly as what user key in ( which word to be in small letters, and which to be capital letters ), instead of autoCapitalized them and auto-turn capitalized words by user to small letters when it is not needed to do so at all. Thanks.

Years ago I used to use the Apple Pencil to play pubg. I used to move with my left hand and use the pencil in my right to control the view and shoot. I played today for the first time in a while and the pencil no longer works if my hand is already using the left side. Please tell me there’s a fix for this!!

Hi everyone, i have two questions about pencil 2 that how many language does it support using scribble? At the present, i know it supports english and japanese. The second quesion is... How long can its battery use in once full charge? Thanks

In the sample project "Drawing with PencilKit", even scrolling by 1 pixel can cause my iPad Pro to use 167% CPU and keep this usage for 2-5 seconds. My iPad got too hot after few minutes that I can't barely put my palm on it. This a serious problem and could be reprocedure easily: Run the sample "Drawing with PencilKit" on your iPad Open the sample note Select all strokes in the note and duplicate about 7 times (it is just an average number of strokes I write in a page on a note-taking app like GoodNotes). Scroll and watch the CPU usage jumps in Xcode It is not matter how long you scroll or how many strokes are visible on the screen. If the drawing has that much strokes, the CoreHandwriting objects will eat all the CPU. I hope it got fixed soon because it make apps with PencilKit consume too much baterry, getting too hot and we receive many bad review because of it :( Many thank to Pencil and Paperteam for developing this Framework btw, this framework is awesome, but it could be better, I believe.

i read year old post here https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/650386?answerId=628394022#reply-to-this-question , where it is said it's not available for everyone right now. does anyone have any info about this when snap to Shape and writing to text might be available for every one ?

I have a 2nd gen Apple Pencil, but when I try to pair it, there is just an icon on the top of the screen indicating that it detects one, but then it straight up disappears and the Pencil never paired, nor will it show up on the Bluetooth settings. It might be because of my iPad because I’ve tried different Pencils but none of them worked. And I’ve tried resetting my network settings and even the whole iPad itself and the issue remains. Am I the only one who has this problem?

Scribble has existed for more than a year now. When can me expect support for more languages? Like the Nordic languages: Norwegian, Danish, Swedish, Icelandic and Finnish?

Is there a Machine Learning API that can take handwriting (either as a bitmap or as a list of points) and convert it to text? I know Scribble can be used to allow handwriting input into text fields, but in this API it is Scribble which controls the rendering of the handwriting. Is there an API where my app can render the handwriting and get information about the text content? In the Keynote demo Craig was able to get text content from a photo of a whiteboard. Are there APIs which would allow an app developer to create something similar?

Using pencil is very frustrating having to switch to keyboard for for a sample enter command. Draw an back arrow or something for enter is needed.

Dear apple, I want to ask that if we can scribble in Korean ?

Hi, I’ve an iPad Air 2020 and IPad mini 6 with iOS 15.2 updated. Suddenly my Apple Pencil 2 started working weirded. It attaches to iPad normally and shows the Pencil charging as usual.
