Best Answer:
It will charge extremely fast if your iPad is charged to %100. The apple Pencil will only take about 10 minutes to have a full charge. It will last a good 8-12 hours depending on the amount of use and or what your doing for instance taking notes or doing a stipple drawing will vary the time of discharge. I use the Apple Pencil for art and I get about 10 hours out of it easily.

AnswerYes it will. I use a screen protector just to keep my iPad clean of scratches and the apple pencil still works. I guess depending on the quality of the screen protector you might feel abit weird using the apple pencil.

no. the Apple Pencil only works with all iPad Pros or the new 2018 iPad since there is a special subsystem of the display to register the stylus input.

Are replacement caps for the apple pencil available for purchase?
- Asked by W Grant J from Buffalo

- Flag as inappropriate (Are replacement caps for the apple pencil available for purchase?)
AnswerYes you can purchase a replacement cap (the lid to cover the lightning connector).
You would purchase a replacement through Apple Support or make a technical reservation through the Genius Bar or Genius Grove at your local Apple Store.
Once in the reservation they will need your the serial number of the Apple Pencil so remember to bring the iPad and Apple Pencil.
They will probably need to order a cap in for you as its serial number specific.- Answered by Steven T
