Hello,
My Apple Pencil is not changing on my iPad, which is charged at 100%. I learned that it's bad for your Pencil to stay dead, I'm at 1% and not able to write with it. It attaches magnetically to the side of the iPad and charges for a couple seconds then no further charging. I've cleaned the iPad with no resolve. Can this be fixed?

I found this thread because I had the same issue of my pencil not being charged.
Theres a much easier way to fix this without having to do a hard reset.
Your pencil will show as charging/charged again.
Same here, I’ve had Apple send me a new Apple Pencil, then they sent me a “new” iPad since the new Apple Pencil wouldn’t work. I’m a year and a half past that event and now my Apple Pencil stopped working again. I’m not sure why this is not a resolved issue by now.
Forgetting the device in bluetooth snd re-pairing worked gor me and I am a real person!
Hard reset worked like a charm. Pencil immediately was recognized and was fully charged. I also realized the Magic Keyboard has been very sensitive and touchy lately. That was also instantly fixed by the hard reset.
I have a brand new Apple Pencil 2 and a brand new iPad Pro 13" M4. I can connect the Apple Pencil via bluetooth to the iPad, and I can charge it when I connect it to the iPad with the usb-c cable. However, it will not charge when connected magnetically to the side of the iPad. In any orientation or placement that has it adhere. I've tried the hard reset to no avail. Is this an issue with the pencil or the iPad? Is there a solution or do I have to replace one or both?
Thank you! Simple fix!
But it didn’t work help me
Well that was amazing and quick. I picked up the pencil of the magnetic holder, clicked forget, waited two heartbeats, set it back on. The iPad connected to it and saw it had a 100% battery.
Dang.
Sorry. Perhaps there’s a context this is true. Just not generally so. The solution of forgetting then reconnecting worked for me.
This looks very AI generated. Can anybody from apple please confirm the validity of this advice?
I have a 10th Gen iPad with a 2nd Gen Pen but the pen isn’t charging. What pen is compatible with my iPad and I’ve followed all the steps on the box but it’s not working what do I do ?
What did you do?
I lost my Apple Pencil over a year ago and only recently found it. I'm thankful it still charges after forgetting the device.
That worked, thank you!
This was the most helpful response and actually worked. I had to plug my pencil into the tablet because even plugging it into a wall outlet didn't work.
Worked seamlessly for me, thx!!
