help Adonit Digital Pen FAQ
Do Adonit styluses support pressure sensitivity in apps like Procreate?
Most current Adonit active pens, including the Note and Neo lines, support tilt and palm rejection but not true pressure sensitivity on iPad. Apps like Procreate reserve pressure for the Apple Pencil, so Adonit is best for note-taking and sketching rather than pressure-driven brushwork.
Will an Adonit stylus work on Android tablets or Windows touchscreens?
It depends on the line: Adonit's basic capacitive styluses, like the classic Jot series, work on any touchscreen since they emulate a fingertip. The active USB-C models such as the Adonit Note are engineered specifically for iPads and won't pair with Android or Windows devices.
Do Adonit pens need Bluetooth pairing like the Apple Pencil?
Many Adonit active styluses skip Bluetooth pairing entirely; you just touch the tip to the screen and start writing, with charging over USB. That contrasts with the Apple Pencil 2's magnetic pairing and $129 launch price, which is the premium Adonit undercuts.
Is an Adonit stylus good for note-taking in GoodNotes or Notability?
Yes, Adonit pens register like a finger in note apps such as GoodNotes, Notability, and Apple Notes, and most iPad-targeted models include palm rejection so you can rest your hand on the screen. They're a common budget path to a Pencil-like writing experience without the Apple Pencil's cost.
