iPad Mini 4 is NOT compatible with Appleā€™s SideCar feature

Only iPad models that are ļ£æPencil compatible.

The 2019 iPad Mini 5 is the ONLY Mini iPad, currently, that is compatible with Apple's SideCar feature as this newest iPad Mini is compatible with the original, 1st gen ļ£æPencil.


An iPad Mini 4 is NOT compatible with ANY ļ£æPencils and therefore will not work with Appleā€™s Sidecar feature.



Sorry.
