Low-cost aesthetic notes
Side by side with Apple’s second-generation Pencil and the StylusHome is visually indistinguishable .
The StylusHome also, unsurprisingly, doesn’t have as tight integration with iPadOS as Apple’s Pencil. You don’t get a little pop-up notification telling you battery life when you stick it to the side of the iPad, for example. But it does support displaying the battery life in Apple’s battery widget, which you can place on your iPad’s homescreen or in the widget tray to the left of the homescreen.
The fake Pencil uses Bluetooth to communicate with the iPad, and there’s an initial pairing you have to do the first time you use it through the iPad’s Bluetooth settings menu. And when you use the stylus again after some time away, it won’t write on the screen because it’s gone to sleep. The remedy here is to just stick it back on to the side of the tablet for a second or two to wake it back up and try again — from there, it’s instantly responsive, just like Apple’s Pencil.
For Serious iPad Users, those that perhaps create digital art for a living, I’d still recommend sticking with the first-party Apple Pencil. But if you’ve been curious if an Apple Pencil could add to your iPad experience, either for casual doodles, navigating the software, or taking handwritten notes but have been scared away by the hefty cost of Apple’s version, a knockoff version like this can provide you with many of the same features for a fraction of the price.
