Hi,


I don't have any connectivity issue with Apple Pencil.

The problem is there is no option to close the using application.

Please have a look the screenshot.

When I'm trying to close the running application there is no option to close through Apple Pencil and the bottom line is not working with Apple Pencil.


But the same bottom line working with magic keyboard by moving and click with round curser.


So I'm expecting the same bottom line should work with Apple Pencil.


Thanks,

Sasidhar

SasidharPulipati,


When using the Apple Pencil, this is expected behavior. Please note the following details from this article when using Apple Pencil: Use Apple Pencil with your iPad - Apple Support


Drawing near the edge of the screen with your Apple Pencil won't activate Control Center, Notification Center, or Multitasking. You can draw anywhere on the screen without getting interrupted.


Best regards.

Greetings SasidharPulipati,


Thanks for reaching out to the Apple Support Communities! It sounds like you're having issues closing apps with the Apple Pencil.


  1. Are the apps closing without the Pencil?
  2. Is this a specific app or all apps?
  3. Is the Pencil still connected to your iPad or is it no longer connected?


The more information you provide, the better the chances are that you will get an answer to resolve your issue.


Have a great day!


Have a great day!

Thanks for the update. Please check out this article to Connect Apple Pencil with your iPad. Follow the next steps to forget the connecting and pair the Apple Pencil with the iPad again.


If the issues continue, we would recommend reaching out to Apple directly by checking out this link to Get Support and they will be more than happy to proceed with additional steps.


Have a terrific day!
