Rumor: Apple Pencil 2 could feature built-in gesture support

Apple’s next-gen Pencil could receive gesture support.

According to well-known developer and leak king Steve Troughton-Smith, the Apple Pencil 2 could feature some form of built-in gesture support.

The updated accessory is expected during today’s “There’s More in the Making” media event in Brooklyn on October 30th.


Troughton-Smith added the button, which may be included on the Apple Pencil 2, could also serve as a contextual click. He called it “the iPad’s right-click.”

Apple’s media event starts at 10 AM eastern time on Tuesday, October 30th, at Brooklyn’s Howard Gilman Opera House. Along with the Apple Pencil 2, Apple is expected to introduce new iPad Pro models, and possibly new Mac models.

Stay tuned for additional details as they become available.
