Best Answer:It has palm rejection! When using this Apple pencil, you can rest your hand on your iPad without interrupting whatever it is you are working on. The crazy part is, your iPad will still recognize your fingers!

can i use the pencil like a mouse?

- Flag as inappropriate can i use the pencil like a mouse?
AnswerThe manner in which the Apple Pencil interacts with your device depends on how the apps you use decide to interpret the input from the Pencil. Some apps use it like a normal finger tap, while others recognize it as a separate tool and allow separate actions (such as pressure-sensitive and/or angle-sensitive input) with the Pencil. On the system level, iOS treats the pencil largely the same as your finger with a few key exceptions in various places.

Can we use it on a iPhone 6s
- Asked by Ahmad M from Dubai

- Flag as inappropriate Can we use it on a iPhone 6s
AnswerNo. The Apple Pencil only works with select iPads, as of this writing. (All iPad Pros with a home button, and select non-Pro iPads) The iPhone 6s lacks the required hardware to be compatible with the Apple Pencil.

Is a screen protector recommended for extensive use of an apple pencil with the iPad Pro?
Just curious

- Flag as inappropriate Is a screen protector recommended for extensive use of an apple pencil with the iPad Pro?
AnswerI recommend screen protectors even if you never plan on using an Apple Pencil on any iPad screen. I currently have a film screen protector, and when the screen is asleep I can see the pencils stroke marks on it. I plan on swapping to a tempered glass screen protector in hope to reduce the amount a stroke marks that appear.

AnswerNo - not even the second generation one does rotation (like the Wacom Art Pen does). Not even the second generation one. I am really trying to find out if a Apple is gonna make one or not as this would be deal breaker for me - I'd have to go to Wacom pen.
