My Apple Pencil (which i just got 3 days ago) has been working great until last night. All of a sudden I had to start pressing extremely hard to get any feedback from it. Help!!

Before looking too deeply for a technical fix, let’s start with an easy mechanical check. Is the tip of the Apple Pencil tightly/firmly screwed on?


If only slightly loose, this can have significant impact upon function and reliability of your Pencil.
