"Apple Pencil 2: Will you guys ever updat compatibility to be compatible with gen 9 iPads? Have a pencil that is useless and it makes no sense because we have the magnetic piece for it but it’s not compatible?"

Making a Device Compatible:

No one here will. These are just user-to-user forums. So, recommend to Apple that they make this an option. Use Apple's Feedback site to do so.

Provide Apple Feedback:

Recommend this as an idea to Apple.  Apple may not get back you, but the more feedback they receive on this, the more they will know what their customers prefer, and what to consider in iOS versions to come.

1. Go Here: Feedback - iPad - Apple
2. Select: "Feature Request" for "Feedback Type"
3. Comment: on why you think this should be an option. Include the URL of this post.
4. Proceed form there as necessary

The first and second generation Apple Pencil have entirely different pairing and charging requirements. The two models of Pencil are not interchangeable.

The iPad9 supports pairing and charging using your iPad’s Lightning Port. Support for the second generation Apple Pencil cannot be added through a software update; iPad9 lacks the inductive/magnetic charging dock hardware that is required by the second generation Pencil.
