Apple pencil in iPadOs 17 thicker

This isn’t the issue it’s not a bug rather a design failure 😞 sadly. There was no need for „playing around with pen writing thickness. Now the lowest thickness is far far far toooooo thick and takes up way too much space in my PDF lectures. This needs fixing ASAP!!!

Same for me. I upgraded my ipad pro to ipados 17 today and I immediately noticed that the Apple pencil was thicker, but for me it happened while annotating on pdfs on the File app. I tried writing something on the Note app and it was thin as it used to be with iPadOs 16…

I also have the same problem, I already did a reset and updated it to the newest one (17.3.) today, but the pen on the pdf files are still too thick ;_;

I hate the new update. I can no longer write on my PDF because the writing is to thick. This needs to be reverted back to what it was.

I have the same problem. I restarted the iPad but it's still not going back to the same level of thickness as before.

The update worked (unfortunately) as I now have new pen options in the file section but the thinnest of the possible pen drawing is way thicker than the before-update one.

What do you recommend? I work with PDF files so that's very annoying.

After ANY iOS/iPadOS upgrade/update, you should ALWAYS perform a simple hard reset/forced restart of your Apple mobile device.

For iPad models with a Home button, do a simple hard reset/forced restart of your iPad by holding down both the Home and sleep/wake/power button simultaneously until your iPad goes to black and restarts with Apple logo, then release the buttons.

OR

For much newer design iPad models, without a Home button, try the new simple hard reset/forced restart procedure for the new 2018-2022 iPad Pros, 2020/21 iPad Air 4 and 5, the 2021 iPad Mini 6 and the new 2022, 10th gen base models,

1. Press and release the volume button closest to the top Power button

2. Then immediately ( and quickly ) press and release the volume button farthest from the top Power button.

3. Then, press and hold the top single sleep/wake/power button You will see the Slide to Power off button, but keep on holding down the power button until you see the Apple logo, then let it go.

Once you have performed all the steps, wait for a few seconds and your 2018-2022 iPad will boot up completely to the iPad’s Lock screen.
