Hi.
I’m current running pages on a 2018 IPad Pro (3rd Gen.) - I tried using Pages Smart Annotation on a document running locally, however it opens and closes Smart annotation incredibly slowly and crashes more often than it doesn’t. Hardware & the network shouldn’t be the issue.
Is anyone else having these problems?
Thanks.
iPad Pro 12.9-inch, 3rd Gen, Wi-Fi, Cell
Hello Kkoutf,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities! I understand that Smart Annotation in the Pages app on your iPad Pro does not work as expected. I would be happy to help point you towards a resolution.
Let's start by confirming that your iPad Pro has been updated to the most recent iOS version:
Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
To help further isolate potential causes, I would like to have you test if the behavior happens if you use Smart Annotation on a different document in Pages. If you're using an Apple Pencil with your iPad Pro, try using your finger to add an annotation instead:
Draw and annotate in Pages on your iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch - Apple Support
Let us know the results.
Cheers!
