Best Answer:
No, when the Apple Pencil 1st gen came out, it was intended for the Pro series until in 2018 when Apple announced iPad 6. iPad 6 is the only one in the Original iPad line as of right now that supports the Apple Pencil.

Best Answer:I accidentally dropped my apple pencil in my foot bath with epsom salt . It took me 3 frantic hours to find it and I was devastaed! I quickly took the cap off, rinsed both pieces in water and dried them with a blow dryer, expecting the worst but hoping for the best. Much to my surprise it still works! That has been several days ago and so far so good. Time will tell!!
