help Jot Dash FAQ
Does the original Adonit Jot Dash need Bluetooth pairing?
No, the active stylus was designed to work without Bluetooth pairing or an app-specific connection. The user presses its top button to power it on and then writes on a compatible capacitive touchscreen.
Is the Jot Dash really battery-free?
No, the original Jot Dash contains a rechargeable battery and is not a passive bamboo stylus. Its powered fine-point tip is what distinguishes it from a basic rubber or conductive-fiber capacitive stylus.
Does the Jot Dash support pressure sensitivity or palm rejection?
The original Jot Dash does not provide Apple Pencil-style pressure sensitivity. Palm rejection also depends on the tablet and app, so users generally cannot assume they can rest a hand on every screen while writing.
Will the Jot Dash work with both iPads and Android tablets?
It was marketed for broad compatibility with capacitive iOS and Android screens rather than one proprietary digitizer. Compatibility can still vary by device, screen protector, and operating system, especially because the original model dates from 2015.
