Apple Pencil Pro

Apple Pencil Pro is an advanced digital pen designed to elevate drawing, note-taking, and design workflows on iPad with more interactivity and precision. This version introduces a suite of new features that make it more than just a stylus — it delivers tactile control and real-time responsiveness.

One standout feature is Squeeze, allowing the Pencil Pro to detect pressure applied along its sides. When squeezed, a tool palette can appear to let you quickly change tools, line weights, or colors. A built-in gyroscope enables Barrel Roll, letting you rotate the pen for more precise control over shaped brushes and tool orientation.

The pen also includes haptic feedback, offering a subtle pulse when performing gestures like double-tap or squeeze, confirming that your action has been registered. Apple Pencil Hover allows you to preview exactly where the pen will touch the screen before it makes contact, giving greater precision for drawing and placement. The classic Double Tap gesture remains available to quickly switch between tools like pen and eraser.

If the pencil goes missing, you can locate it using the Find My app, as it appears alongside your other devices. It magnetically attaches to the side of your compatible iPad for pairing and wireless charging.

In terms of dimensions, the Pencil Pro is approximately 166 mm long, 8.9 mm in diameter, and weighs around 19.15 grams — a light and balanced design that’s easy to use over extended sessions. It connects via Bluetooth and charges magnetically.

Compatibility is limited to recent iPad models running iPadOS 17.5 or later — including iPad Pro (M4), iPad Air (M2 / M3), and certain iPad mini models.
