https://wccftech.com/apple-pencil-2-not-compatible-with-older-ipads/ > The new second-generation Apple Pencil that Apple introduced today alongside new iPad Pro models includes support for tap gestures and inductive charging when attached to an iPad Pro magnetically, a significant improvement from the lightning port-based charging of its predecessor. Given the complete redesign of both the iPad Pro and Pencil, it comes as no surprise that they are not backwards compatible.
