Pressure Sensitivity: iPad 10th gen, Apple Pencil 3rd Gen

I bought the Apple Pencil 1st Gen (plus the adapter) to use for my iPad 10th Gen specifically for the pressure sensitivity feature. I was able to connect/pair it successfully, but I found that the pressure sensitivity does not work.

I saw on a post that apparently the pressure sensitivity feature does not work for the iPad 10th gen. Is this true?

Your first generation Apple Pencil does support pressure sensitivity - however, the availability of this feature is entirely dependent upon the App that you are using with the Pencil. Not all Apps support pressure input.

Can I ask what apps does support it? It doesn't work with Procreate or the built in notes app.
