Were you aware that the FormConnect app supports the use of the Apple Pencil and handwriting recognition? When Apple introduced iOS 14, they enhanced the ability of the Apple Pencil to recognize handwritten input into a text field. All you have to do is handwrite anywhere into a text field and the system will automatically convert your handwriting into typed text. It only works on certain iPads when used with the Apple Pencil. Below are a list of the Apple Pencils and iPads that are supported.
Apple Pencil (2nd generation)
You can use Apple Pencil (2nd generation) with these iPad models:
- iPad Air (4th generation)
- iPad Pro 12.9-inch (3rd generation) and later
- iPad Pro 11-inch (1st generation) and later
Apple Pencil (1st generation)
You can use Apple Pencil (1st generation) with these iPad models:
- iPad (8th generation)
- iPad mini (5th generation)
- iPad (7th generation)
- iPad (6th generation)
- iPad Air (3rd generation)
- iPad Pro 12.9-inch (1st or 2nd generation)
- iPad Pro 10.5-inch
- iPad Pro 9.7-inch
I find my handwriting recognition accuracy works best with multi-line text boxes in that a single text box is not be large enough for me to write in. When enlarging the text box, the extra space on the screen allows me to write larger and be more precise in my penmanship.
