Why are the grid lines disappearing after I select them and I start to write with Apple gen 2 pen?

I cannot write using my Apple Pencil in Notes I’ve tried to use my Apple Pencil to hand write to but cannot get the Markup button to show up. I can use the pen to annotate photos, pdfs, etc., but cannot in Notes. Is there a solution to this? (I am using IPadOS 16.1)

Apple Notes lag when taking handwritten notes on iPad Pro with Apple Pencil I have the 2nd generation iPad Pro and noticed a lot of lag after updating to iPadOS 16.1. This is especially prominent as the size of the notes increase (i.e. more than 4 - 5 pages). At this point, the current note is completely unusable. I have also noticed that if you close the notes once the lag appears, apple notes does not save the 'laggy portion' as well. I restarted the iPad and also ensured no apps were running in the background. Lag remains.

Frozen notes page when viewing web version Hello, I've been having this issue for a while and I've tried everything but it doesn't seem to work. I have the Notes app on my phone and iCloud is syncing notes fine so I view them on my laptop (windows) through either the web version or full screen bookmark of it. Everything was going fine until only one of my notes won't load on my laptop, even though it works on my phone. My other notes load fine but this one just won't. It's my biggest note, but I don't think there's any limit..? I've tried turning on and off iCloud, deleting and reinstalling the app, everything but it just stays frozen on a loading page. It's really annoying that I can't add to it anymore on my laptop because the keyboard is just so much easier to work with! Please send help-

I have the same issue. It only disappear when you use the ink to text nib (a) which I want to use. However as a messy work round if you select the paper then a normal nib and scribble anything and then swap to nib A, it converts text and lets you use new line etc. Messy I know!. This should be so much easier.
