Hi hilalfromafrica!

I understand that your Apple Pencil won't pair with your iPad, and I'm happy to help. Please try these suggestions:

If your Apple Pencil won't pair with your iPad

  1. Restart your iPad, then try to pair again.
  2. Go to Settings > Bluetooth and make sure that Bluetooth is turned on.
  3. On the same screen, look under My Devices for your Apple Pencil. If you see it, tap User uploaded file. Then tap Forget this Device.

  4. Plug your Apple Pencil into your iPad and tap the Pair button when it appears after a few seconds.
  5. If you don't see the Pair button, wait for one minute while your Apple Pencil charges. Then unplug your Apple Pencil, plug it back in, and wait until you see the Pair button.
  6. If you still don’t see the Pair button, contact Apple Support.
