Apple Pencil glitch

Please who has any idea why my Apple Pencil would be glitching on my iPad. So right now my pencil works properly on other iPads with out and issue but on mine would write at times and fail sometimes . Unless when I apply serious pressure to the screen when it’s glitching, I think it’s a screen issue but I’m not sure for sure. My iPad responds to normal touch. It’s just from the Pencil

iPad, iPadOS 16

Having successfully tested the Pencil with another compatible iPad, this might suggest an issue with the iPad where you are experiencing difficulties.


As such, you be best advised to visit the Genius Bar at your local Apple Store or Apple Authorised Service Provider (AASP) - where the technicians will be able to test and assess your iPad and Pencil. If something is amiss, you’ll be in the best possible place to explore your available options and potential remedies:

"So, much more context. The Pencil of it starts to glitch I could plug the pencil to charge for a bit or just wait a bit and it would start working so I’m still wondering."
