Overview

Apple Pencil Pro adds even more magical capabilities to help bring your ideas to life. New advanced features make marking up, taking notes and creating a masterpiece more intuitive than ever.

Squeeze. Apple Pencil Pro can sense when you squeeze it and brings up a new palette, so you can quickly switch tools, line weights and colours.

Barrel roll. A new gyroscope allows you to rotate Apple Pencil Pro for precise control of shaped pen and brush tools.

Apple Pencil hover.¹ Preview exactly where your Apple Pencil will touch down on your display and see a virtual shadow of your tool. So you can write, sketch and illustrate with even greater precision.

Double-tap. Quickly switch between tools, like a pen and eraser, with a double-tap on Apple Pencil.
