Hello Smart People,
i have 7e generation iPad that i want to use for writing text with my Apple pencil 1e gen.
The writing works in notes, but i want to use the automatic convert to digital text. But this does not work at all. i tried apple support but they cant help because they don't know.
Can somebody help me?

Not all Apps support Scribble - this being the feature that converts handwritten text. Support for Scribble capabilities must be added by the respective App Developer.
If specific Apps that you use do not support Scribble features, consider contacting the App Developer - and ask about support being added:

In Notes, if Scribble has been enabled, you must use the Handwriting Tool.
More information about using your iPad, Pencil and Scribble features can be found in the iPad User Guide:
Having just tested Scribble with Notes - I can confirm that, in iPadOS 15.5, the Handwriting Tool appears to be missing from the Notes App.
As such, I can only suggest that this is a recently introduced software bug - that you are unlikely to resolve yourself.
You would be beet advised to submit a Bug Report to Apple using the Product Feedback portal:
Yes i already talked with support about this but my ipad 7e gen does not give this function. i need the pencil with A on it to convert text.
the only thing ipad user guide says is that the apple pencil is compatible, but nothing is said about converting written text to digital text.
thats why i am desperate.
i am using it on apple native app Notes. it should work but i can not find if it is compatible.
7th gen iPad compatibility with 1st gen Apple Pencil?
