how to charge apple pencil gen 2

The Apple Pencil (2nd generation) charges wirelessly by magnetically attaching to the right side of a compatible iPad. Simply place the flat side of the Apple Pencil against the magnetic strip on the edge of the iPad until it snaps into place. When connected, a charging icon or notification will appear on the iPad screen, indicating the Pencil is charging. Make sure Bluetooth is turned on in the iPad settings for proper pairing and charging to occur. This method is specific to the 2nd generation Pencil and requires a compatible iPad with the magnetic charging area. No cables or adapters are needed; the Pencil charges wirelessly from the iPad’s magnetic connector. The charging process is quick and convenient, usually taking about 15-20 minutes for a substantial charge. You can check the battery level in the iPad’s Batteries widget or in the Apple Pencil section of the settings. If the iPad doesn’t have the magnetic connector, the Apple Pencil (2nd gen) is not compatible, unlike the 1st generation Pencil, which uses a Lightning connector for charging. This wireless magnetic charging method is the official and only way to charge the Apple Pencil (2nd gen) as designed by Apple.
