Hi guys, I updated my 12.9 inch M2 iPad Pro to iPadOS 16.two b**a three (apple forbids me to mention the b word) and I can confirm the handwriting issue with apple pencil is FINALLY FIXED and it works perfectly fine now even with hover feature turned on on both apple notes and third party note taking apps. It is a very stable system as far as I can tell and I haven’t run into any issues with apps like Notability and GoodNotes 5. If this is an urgent issue that needed to be fixed ASAP for you, I recommend updating to this b**a immediately

supramaniam, did you also experience distorted writing with the Apple Pencil on your 4th gen pro? Like weird corner angles when drawing curves or O's where the line doesn't follow the pencil and letters end up looking blocky instead of round?


I tried a M2 model in the store and while it was laggy, there were also weird distortion. The iPad Air next to didn't distort the writing but was definitely super laggy and on iPadOS 16
