Supports 12mm hover operation, and Apple updates Pages, Numbers and Keynote applications for iPad

CTOnews.com, March 31 (Xinhua)-- Apple today updated its Pages, Numbers and Keynote office productivity applications for iPad. The biggest improvement is support for Apple Pencil hover.

Apple officials say users use the apps on the 11-inch and 12.9-inch iPad Pro to make it easier to navigate, write, sketch and illustration.

The second-generation Apple Pencil supports hovering up to 12 millimeters above the screen on the latest iPad Pro models, allowing users to preview their drawings before drawing.

Another useful hover feature for users is to use graffiti. If you want to convert handwritten content to text on iPad, use Apple Pencil to hover over the screen and automatically expand the text field.

CTOnews.com previously reported that Apple Pencil received tilt and azimuth support in iPadOS 16.4. Apple discussed this feature in a recent interview, and more details can be found at the link below.
