Can my iPad Air use an Apple Pencil?

What iPad Air model do you own?

There are three iPad Air models, now.

The newest, 2019, 10.5 inch screen iPad Air 3 can use the 1st generation Apple Pencil because it has the necessary screen layer hardware to work with an Apple Pencil.

None of the older iPad Air models can use any version of tne Apple Pencil.

These older iPad Air models are too old and lack the necessary screen layer hardware.

Sorry, no it can't. There is a good alternative that many here have high regard for. It's the Adonit Pixel.

No. The Apple Pencil does not work with the iPad Air 2. There are other styli that you can use, it no that the Apple Pencil.

Before there was a moderator edit, it was said iPad 2. So why we answered it won't support Apple Pencil.

Only the newest iPad Air supports the Apple Pencil. (3rd generation 2019)

iPad Air 1 and 2 from 2013 / 2014 don't support the Apple Pencil.
