Scribble Feature Does Not Work

I want to type with my Apple Pencil 2 by drawing where I can type. I’ve heard that “Scribble” setting can enable it.


At “Settings - Apple Pencil”


There is no “Scribble” Setting.


So how can I type by drawing with my Apple Pencil?


(For example on Safari Website Search Box. I click on the Search Box with Apple Pencil 2 and draw but It does not write or mark anything???)

Perhaps these are the resources that you are looking for - in particular the iPad User Guide and details of the Scribble feature:


Enter text with Scribble on iPad - Apple Support

Use Apple Pencil with your iPad - Apple Support


For full Apple Pencil and current Scribble language support, ensure that you have updated your iPad to iPadOS15.7.
