Apple has launched two powerful tablets, the iPad Air M2 and the iPad Pro M4.

Apple Pencil Pro problems in detail
Disconnections and their Effects
Reports in online forums such as Reddit and the Apple Support Forum indicate repeated disconnections of the Apple Pencil Pro. Users report that the pencil is initially recognized, but the connection suddenly drops for no apparent reason. These disconnections often occur while writing or drawing, affecting productivity. In some cases, the Apple Pencil Pro disappears completely from the Bluetooth menu and the Find My app, and even reattaching it to the tablet does not restore the connection.
impact on use
The connection problems are not only annoying but also hindering for users who use the pen for professional or creative work. Repeated interruptions can significantly disrupt the workflow and lead to frustration.
problems with gestures
In addition to the disconnections, users are reporting issues with the Apple Pencil Pro's double-tap and press gestures. Despite being correctly configured in the settings, these gestures do not work reliably. Users notice that the settings are sometimes reset, which affects the usability. These issues occur on both the iPad Air M2 and the iPad Pro M4.
Potential solutions and updates
There is hope that Apple can fix these issues through future software updates. Both iPadOS and firmware updates could help resolve the connectivity and gesture issues and make the Apple Pencil Pro fully functional again.
Outlook for Improvements
The Apple Pencil Pro has the potential to be a useful tool for many iPad users. Its innovative features and integration with the latest iPad models make it an attractive addition. However, current connection problems and gesture errors affect the user experience. It remains to be seen how quickly Apple can fix these problems with updates. Until then, users should use official support channels and watch out for possible temporary solutions. Overall, the Apple Pencil Pro shows that even advanced technology must be continuously improved to ensure an optimal user experience. (Image: Apple)
