After updating to iOS 15 I cant free handwrite in notes anymore, it converts everything to text! I cant figure out what to do.
iPad Air, iOS 12
Try one of the other different pens/brushes.
The one you are using has a letter A on it that is for handwriting to text conversion.
Try another pen/brush, instead.
Best of Luck to You!
No Free Handwriting in iPadOS 15?
