I use it at least once a quarter. I’m not sure where it is now. if you ever use music for the guitar, or tabs, or just chord sheets, I strongly recommend forScore.
Also, the kid at the Apple Store told me I was eligible for a phone upgrade. I asked if they had an iPhone 16 mini. Otherwise, not interested. He looked confused.
So I tried that and it said “device within arms reach”. No shit, it fell right here in my lap. That doesn’t mean I can find it. I have very low expectations for this pencil’s longevity.
If you don’t trust that, you can get a case that has a loop to hold the pencil. I have a keyboard case for my iPad that has such a loop, and I don’t even have a pencil.
Yes, it’s magnetic. But I’m the proverbial bull in a china shop when it comes to my iPad. I ordered a case that has a pouch for the pencil. It arrives today. Hopefully the pencil will last a few more hours.
This new iPad has the wake/home button on the upper left. This is different and I have to use my left hand. While I occasionally like using my left hand for things, just to mix it up, it’s also going to take some getting used to. Progress is hard.
I had a history professor who used his mouse with his left hand “to keep his mind limber.” I’d have taken it more seriously from a neuroscience professor, but whatever, the guy seemed sharp enough. Maybe it was working after all.
