The Apple Pencil is a versatile digital stylus pen that lets you take notes, sketch ideas, create illustrations and paintings, edit spreadsheets, annotate or mark up documents and more.\u00a0<\/p>\n
It operates like a traditional pencil, letting you vary line weight, create realistic and subtle shading, and produce a wide range of artistic effects with impressive accuracy. Drawing feels natural, with no lag to ruin the illusion \u2013 and setup is incredibly easy. Just pop the cap off to reveal a Lightning connector, and plug it into your iPad Pro. (That’s also how you charge it.)\u00a0<\/p>\n
The Apple Pencil works with a range of art and design iOS apps including Adobe Draw and Sketch, Procreate, Affinity Photo and more.<\/p>\n
