Scribble always defaults to English, regardless of selected keyboard language (Polish/Swedish)

Hi!

I’m using an iPad Air (4th gen) with iPadOS 18.1.1. I have added Polish and Swedish keyboards, and Scribble is enabled in Settings. However, when I write with Apple Pencil in the Notes app, the text is always converted into incorrect English words, regardless of whether the selected keyboard is Polish or Swedish.


Even after switching languages using the globe icon, restarting the iPad, and disabling/enabling Scribble again, the problem remains. It seems like the handwriting recognition engine defaults to English no matter what.

Any suggestions?

iPad Air, iPadOS 18
