Problem when I am writing on my iPad

I noticed that the glass display keeps slightly bending (moving up and down) as I'm writing. It's as if the screen isn't hard enough so when I apply pressure, the screen slightly bends. I'm not sure if it's because I'm pressing too hard or if it's a problem of my iPad. I tried writing with less pressure and tried not to press the screen too much, but I do still notice a slight movement in the screen and it is pretty bothersome when I write.

iPad Pro, iPadOS 14

If the iPad screen is flexing a lot, you are putting waaay to much pressure on the screen when writing with the Pencil.

Some minor flexing of the screen is normal when using an Pencil, but you are bearing down too much on the iPad's screen when writing or drawing.


You need to learn to use less pressure on the iPad’s screen when using a digital stylus.


Some apps have pressure curve settings for the Pencil to be able to leave marks onscreen in the app/s using minimal screen pressure.



Best of Luck to You!
