Third party stylus works on iPhone but not iPad.

Hello I have a third party stylus which I wanted to use just for simple writing and occasional note taking. It works beautifully on my iPhone XR but the iPad Air 3 that I have is very inconsistent recognizing the touch. Here is a link to someone with the same problem. https://discussions.apple.com/thread/251463446

any possible ideas for a solution to this? Would be very appreciated.

Don't know much about this one, but the other thread poster indicates that this is not a very good stylus. If you want to guarantee it works, buy the Apple Pencil.
