Apple Pencil lagging only in Notability

Any solution for Pencil lag in Notability?


Apple pencil is working in all other apps without any problems. But for some reason when it comes to Notability the pencil is lagging and this is hindering all my work of note preparations. I have tried all possible solutions from resetting to restarting and updating IOS and Notability but it doesn’t seem to work.

iPad Pro 10.5-inch, Wi-Fi

Troubleshooting a Lagging App:


Clear Space:

Try clearing internal storage, though use of the following:

What Space to Clear:

A. Clear Temporary Internet Files:

Clear your Temporary Internet Files(Cookies & Cache) of Safari:


And...



B. Clean TV and Music Libraries:

Remove all unneeded files from your TV and Music Libraries. Full-Movies take up 2-4GB typically, and a bunch of those would take up a load of storage, ideally. So, if you have any movies that are not needed, then delete them.


And...


C. "Other" being the Culprit:

Use this Link: How to Check the Storage on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support. The storage named "Other" is the grey bar. So, to clear that, this is what to perform: Clear Other storage on your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support
