Apple iPhone does not support Apple Pencil - as iPhone screens lack the specific screen hardware with which the Pencil interacts with the screen of the host device. As such, support for Pencil cannot be added by way of a software update, but would require a hardware redesign.


Apple does invite submission of comments and feature requests via its Product Feedback portal. If you would like Apple to consider future support for Apple Pencil on iPhone, this would be the most appropriate channel through which to make your request:
