The Magic keyboard only works with the 2018/2020 iPad Pros and the 2020 iPad Air 4.

If you are using any of these devices, then you are using the WRONG version of the Pencil.

These iPad models that use the Magic Keyboard also need to use the 2nd gen Pencil and NOT the older, original 1st gen Pencil.

The older version Pencil is NOT compatible with the same iPad models that use the Magic Keyboard.

The 2nd gen Pencil will simply magnetically attach and charge to the side of the Magic Keyboard compatible iPad versions.

You need to purchase and use the newer, 2nd gen Pencil.
