Anything about possible support for Apple Pencil Pro in VisionOS ?
I think it’s coming at wwdc. Gyros and haptics are overkill for iPad only support.

If you look at the specs it doesn't have the radios at all, so sending and recieving. It honestly would have made for some really cool use cases too... imagine find my drawing a line on the ground leading you to items.

The last 3-4 betas showed the same issues as being fixed in their Release Notes, as if nothing was done. But I did notice that the AVP performs a lot better in the dark. Before I had to turn on my watch to give it some light to calibrate in order for it to work. Lately, if I cover the sensor by mistake and get the error saying "There's not enough light..." it recovers by itself very quickly and continues to work.
