So I have a 5th gen iPad (2017) and I was interested in the 1st gen ipencil…my issue is I can’t seem to find a definitive answer on whether these two are compatible. Are the 5th gen iPad and 1st gen ipencil compatible?
iPad, iPadOS 14

Nothing other than an Apple Pencil is going to work. That's just the way it is :(

Sad day. Oh well though. And thanks for responding.
