Start drawing
Open the Notes app on iPad Pro to start drawing with Apple Pencil. Draw with
Apple Pencil on iPad Pro as if you’re drawing with a pencil on paper. Don’t
use Apple Pencil on any surface other than iPad Pro. Keep the tip of the Apple
Pencil clean, as dirt and other small particles may cause excessive wear to
the tip or damage the screen of the iPad Pro.
Replace the tip of the Apple Pencil
With use, the tip of the Apple Pencil will wear down, and you’ll need to
replace it.
Important: To avoid damaging the iPad Pro screen, replace the tip of the
Apple Pencil when it’s worn down.
Remove a tip
Turn the tip of the Apple Pencil counterclockwise to unscrew it.
Attach a tip

Safety and handling
Apple Pencils may present a choking hazard or cause another injury to small
children. Keep Apple Pencil away from small children.
Handle Apple Pencil with care
The pencil contains sensitive electronic components, including a battery, and
can be damaged or cause injury if dropped, burned, bent, crushed, or if it
comes in contact with liquid. Don’t use a damaged Apple Pencil.
Battery
Don’t attempt to replace the Apple Pencil battery yourself—you may damage the
battery, which could cause overheating and injury.
Lightning cable and connector
Avoid prolonged skin contact with the connector when the Lightning to USB
Cable is plugged into a power source because it may cause discomfort or
injury. For example, while Apple Pencil is charging using the Apple Pencil
Adapter, the Lightning to USB cable, and a power adapter plugged into a power
source, don’t sit or sleep on them or place them under a blanket, pillow, or
your body. Take special care if you have a physical condition that affects
your ability to detect heat against the body.
Medical device interference
Apple Pencil contains components and radios that emit electromagnetic fields.
These electromagnetic fields may interfere with pacemakers, defibrillators, or
other medical devices. Maintain a safe distance of separation between your
medical device and Apple Pencil. Consult your physician and medical device
manufacturer for information specific to your medical device. Stop using Apple
Pencil if you suspect it is interfering with your pacemaker, defibrillator, or
any other medical device.
Cleaning
To clean the outside of the Apple Pencil, use a lint-free cloth. Don’t get
moisture in any openings or use aerosol sprays, solvents, or abrasives.
Ergonomics
When using Apple Pencil, it’s important to find a comfortable posture, change
your position often, and take frequent breaks. For information about
ergonomics, health, and safety, visit the Ergonomics website at
