Description
The Apple Pencil Pro introduces new features like squeeze, which brings up a tool palette, and barrel roll, which rotates the pen tool. It also includes haptic feedback for a more tactile experience, a gyroscope for precise rotations, and the hover feature to preview marks before you make them. Like the previous model, it attaches, pairs, and charges magnetically to compatible iPads, and supports double-tap to switch tools.
