No scribble option

Hello!

I’ve bought the Apple Pencil 1 for my Ipad pro 10,5 inch, but it doesn’t have a scribble option. In IpadOS 14 they told that there would be this option. Is this option not available with this apple pencil?


Greetings,

iPad Pro 10.5-inch, Wi-Fi

An iPad Pro 10.5” with iPadOS14 does support the new Scribble feature.


First, check that iPadOS14 is installed:

Settings > General > About


If you haven’t already updated, do so now:

Settings > General > Software Update


Ensure that your Pencil is Paired with your iPad:

Connect Apple Pencil with your iPad - Apple Support


If you have successfully updated to iPadOS14 - and paired your Pencil with iPad - verify that Scribble is enabled in Settings:

Settings > Apple Pencil > Scribble - set to ON


If the your Settings do not show Apple Pencil or the Scribble option, a forced-restart of your iPad may be helpful. A forced-restart often resolves an isolated issue:


  • On an iPad with a Home button: Press and hold the top button and the Home button at the same time. When the Apple logo appears, release both buttons.
  • On an iPad with Face ID: Press and quickly release the volume up button, press and quickly release the volume down button, then press and hold the top button. When the Apple logo appears, release the button.
