Apple Pencil fix coming to new M2 iPad Pro? Display BUG

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

called apple. they escalated to senior tech support.

also found another url with this issue Apple pencil lag and handwriting looks gl… - Apple Community

but why is this not fixed yet apple?!

when so many people have already informed that it is 'not usable'

tech support said to go to Product Feedback - Apple

as well! please do!!!

im sure when school reopen and all the m2 and scribbling will have more reports.

and more refunds.

obviously they should get this fix asap!!! i wished immediately exist

The new M2 models of iPad have the new “hover” feature - which can detect presence of the Pencil before touching the screen. Tip detection is reportedly up to 12mm above the screen - and this may impact your drawing/writing technique.

At present, “hover” is permanently enabled on supported models of iPad Pro. The behaviour of this feature will be determined by Apps.

Given that the M2 iPad Pro models are so new, it is quite feasible that you may encounter early model-specific issues - which with be ironed out quite quickly.

In the circumstances, you might be best advised to seek assistance directly from from Apple Support. You can contact the Support Team using the Get Support link at top-right of this page.

Alternatively, you can initiate and manage your support cases using the excellent Apple Support App. If not already installed on your iPad, the App can be downloaded from the App Store:

Guys i started to look for apps. I found one that works perfect at least for me

ELEMENT NOTE.

hope this helps in the meantime

I have the exact same issue. Using the Apple Pencil on my new M2 iPad Pro (iPadOS 16.1) is super laggy. It fells more as if the pencil is scribbling and doesn't strictly follow my moves. By the way I noticed that this issue occurs way more often in third party apps than in Apple notes. Seems to be a software bug. I hope Apple is fixing this very soon.

I've noticed the same issues... upgraded from a 2018 11" iPad Pro to a M2 11" iPad Pro and the Pencil sensitivity is much different. I can't seem to write neatly no matter how slow I write or how hard I try. I've tried in both GoodNotes and Notability, same thing in both apps. I really hope this gets fixed in a future software update. The primary use of my iPad is taking notes.

i wanna cry. i removed the screen protector and it still happens

also. from a 2017 and it is so much more readable.

pdf ibooks & notes like the basic ones

i also swap the tip over and it is fine on 2017’s!

decided to return it because it is not usable at the moment for what i need - writing notes on pdf for school.

will call or chat apple about it after my exams :\ they need to fix this asap.

im surprised:

1) they did test the device? probably not? this should be very obvious issue.

2) it is actually a big issue since pencil is for writing right? why is this issue not fixed yet? (i mean it has been more than a week since released. i guess not "much" people buy ipad pro unlike iphones..)

Did you find a solution? Because this problems is stressing me out. I turn off the hover feature on the apple pen settings but it is not helping.

I use goodnote, and try using apple notes and is the same thing. So it is not an app problem in my opinion is a software problem.

anyone with a solution it would be greatly appreciated.

It is happening to me in apple notes and freeform too, I don't know if it's only third party softwares for you.

Yeah it’s kinda weird no one raised a discussion on it other than us, like I’m sure Apple is aware of the problem, they just can’t seem to fix it

Also there’s a post on Reddit and no one seems to care about it, I contracted Apple support and they did not give a f
