The Apple pencil is making marks and strokes while hovering and moving the pencil a few millimeters from the surface. Spoke to Apple guys a while back and they too said were having similar issues.
Does anyone know what could it be .. I tried unscrewing and tightening the tip, but still the same thing ..
I am facing the issue in Procreate , Sketchbook pro , Notes ..
iPad, iOS 9.2.1, Apple Pencil
I've noticed this same problem. I took mine into a local apple repair center and they kept it for a day to run some tests, then gave me a new pencil wrapped in plastic (no box). I tested it as soon as I got home today and.... same thing happens. It still begins to draw before the tip touches the screen. I've tested a couple different apple pencils and they also seem to barely do the same thing - beginning to draw while hovering 1mm above the screen. Sometimes it feels more like 2mm, and while the center of the tip may be 2mm away, I believe part of the curved edge is more like 1mm away.
Overall it is still a pretty amazing little stylus with the pressure and angle sensitivity, but I was really hoping it was something that could be resolved. I don't know if it is something that can be corrected with software, if so, I think the Apple pencil would be that much closer to flawless. Hopefully we see an improvement with the sensitivity sometime soon.
I Am using the Apple pencil .. As my primary stylus ..
Can anyone with the Apple pencil try hovering the pencil a few millimetres above the surface and see if there are any fine lines ?
Oh yes .. I always have Palm resting first .. So yes I tried that
Did you even try my suggested method first?
Have you tried placing your palm down first before drawing?
This is how most apps that have palm rejection work.
It doesn't matter if you're using the Apple Pencil or third party stylus.
With most third party stylii with palm rejection, lay your palm on the screen first before making any marks on the screen with the stylus.
Apple pencil over sensitive
