Apple Pencil 2 missing double tap options I have an 11” IPad Pro 3rd gen with Apple Pencil 2. IOS 15.7. When I go to settings to check or change the pencil settings, I don’t have any options to do so. I just get something about scribble. Double tap doesn’t work on the pencil. I’ve restarted, rebooted, disconnected and everything else that has been suggested to no avail. What’s next.

Will Apple add support for Apple Pencil 2 Hover on M1 Pro iPads? I just purchased my M1 iPad Pro and I am discouraged and disappointed that I cannot experience what seams to be a software locked feature after spending over one and a half thousand dollars on the device and Apple accessories. Does Apple plan on unlocking this feature anytime soon or provide a hardware limitation explanation other than “M2’? I’m staying hopeful. Thanks, -Nathan

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)

Try a hard reset of your iPad by holding down both the Home and sleep/wake buttons simultaneously until your iPad goes to black and restarts with Apple logo, then release the buttons.
