Scriptation works great with the Apple Pencil on iPad. Pair your Pencil to get pressure-sensitive lines, smooth drawing, and palm rejection for handwriting on your script.

Which Apple Pencil Works With Which iPad?

Apple's compatibility page lists which Apple Pencil works with each iPad model.

Pairing an Apple Pencil

Using the Pencil in Scriptation

Once your Pencil is paired, a Pencil icon appears on the Annotation Toolbar. Tap it to toggle Pencil mode on or off.
