I like the creativity I receive from using Apple products.
So, when Apple came out with the Apple pencil for the iPad Pro, it was natural for me to try it. It is a handy tool.
It looks just like a pencil. The majority of the developers who design apps for Apple have already updated their note taking apps to use the Apple pencil.
The apps I use are Microsoft OneNote, Capture Notes, Evernote, and Apple’s own note taking app.
How do I charge it? I remove the top and plug it into my iPad Pro down at the bottom beneath the home button. Depending on how weak your pencil is, it takes twenty to thirty minutes to fully charge.
Until September 16,
Be safe.

If you have the iPad Pro, I hope you have the pencil also. It took me some time to get used to it. That’s why I try to make the blog articles here as simple as possible because I believe I am not the only one who needs to take it slow and easy. I try to keep it as simple as possible.

I’m looking at an iPad Pro. Maybe that comes with this pen? I’m also thinking of a Surface which definitely has a pen, but I don’t quite trust MS to do a computer right.

Jacqui,
I have the iPad Pro, the Apple Pencil, and the Keyboard. With all three, I am highly satisfied. For me, there is no comparison to any other tablet. Of course that is my opinion, but I’d rather err on the side of having the iPad Pro than having another instrument where I am constantly frustrated. I hope you make the right decision for you.

Seems like a cool tool! Will you be getting the new iPhone? I don’t like how you need wireless headphones for it.

The Apple Pencil is cool. I love it. What I like most is that now I can write in the majority of my app notetaking programs. My handwriting is improving. Normally, I am sitting at a computer. No, I will not be getting the new iPhone. I’ve just invested in the iPhone 6s Plus. I’ll wait another two years. I usually do that. I call it wait and see.

I do everything with my ipad pro. I have the large version, and the split screen is so handy for writing. I love the smart keyboard, and enjoy playing with the Apple Pencil too. I’m not much of an artist, but I can cobble together things in my blog banner and this month’s wallpaper.
