Is your Apple Pencil not working? You can do all this!

The Apple Pencil is useful if you have an iPad, unless it doesn’t work. These tips may help you solve the problem.

The Apple Pencil is one of the most useful gadgets for your iPhone. The Pencil 2 in particular writes very well and responds ideally to your iPad, making it all very smooth. Yet it is irritating when it suddenly no longer does what you want. Fortunately, there are ways to get it working again without having to buy a new one. Some are easier than you think.

Tighten the tip of the Apple Pencil

This solution sounds very simple, but sometimes it actually works. If you use the Apple Pencil a lot, the top may become a bit looser. It is also possible that the tip no longer works properly because it is worn out. Fortunately, you can easily order new points in the Apple Store.

Load

Yes, it sounds very simple, but sometimes you just have to charge your Apple Pencil properly. It is of course more difficult to see if it is completely empty than other gadgets such as an iPhone and iPad. Especially if you haven’t used it for a while, it can help to charge it first. That takes about 10 minutes.

Reconnecting the Apple Pencil

If your Apple Pencil doesn’t work, there may also be a problem with the connection. Therefore, check the Bluetooth connections of your iPhone. You can also try disconnecting and then reconnecting. You may recognize this option from your AirPods, where it sometimes happens that they no longer work.

Reset

Doesn’t it all work? Then it may be your iPad. To check this, you can first turn the device on and off. If that doesn’t work, you could even perform a hard reset.

Isn’t all this working? Then your Apple Pencil is probably broken. Do you still have warranty? Then contact your seller or Apple. Has it expired? Then you will probably have to buy a new one.
