My Apple Pencil icon is gone or the Pencil no longer works

If your Apple Pencil is no longer in the Annotation toolbar, simply touch one of the annotation icons and use the Pencil to make a note or a line or shape. This should put the Pencil icon on the toolbar.

If the Pencil has stopped working:

Go to Settings > Bluetooth;
Make sure that Bluetooth is turned on;
Under My Devices, find your Apple Pencil;
Tap the Info icon:

5. Tap Forget this Device;


Reconnect the Pencil -- attach it to the side of your iPad and if the Pair button appears, tap it (or it may just pair automatically). If the Pair button doesn't appear, wait for a minute while your Apple Pencil charges;
Restart the iPad / iPhone.

When you open Scriptation, the Apple Pencil icon should be in the toolbar and the pencil should be fully functional.
