You need to find note apps in the iOS App Store that support the Apple Pencil (and smart stylus input, in general) and PDF documents.

Do an iOS App Store search for

Apple Pencil Apps.

Notes Apps or PDF notes apps or some other search variations to find the type of notes apps that support marking up PDFs.

A few apps you can look at to get started.


Good Notes

Noteshelf

Notability

Notepad+


Good Luck!
