Does the pen support pressure sensitivity - i.e. does the line width vary depending on the pressure applied?
Does the tilt sensitivity also work?

I would like to use the pen on the iPad (A16) from 2025. In particular in Affinity Photo and Affinity Designer.

Answer

No, the pen does not support pressure sensitivity, i.e. the stroke width does not vary depending on the pressure applied. It recognises the tilt (tilt sensitivity), but not reliably in all apps.

It is compatible with the iPad (A16) from 2025 and works in principle in apps such as Affinity Photo and Affinity Designer, although tilt detection is app-dependent.
