Does Apple Pencil 2 generation have to be attached to the ipad at all times? Will it over change and make damage to the battery? If I don’t attach it to the ipad and the pencil doesn’t have anymore battery, how do I charge it?
iPad Air, iPadOS 14
It is recommended that you keep a second generation Apple Pencil docked with your iPad whenever it is not being actively used. Doing so will ensure that the Pencil battery is optimally charged - and, importantly, is protected from deep discharge.
An Pencil set-aside, unused and/or uncharged for an extended period, will deplete its battery - leading to irreversible battery damage. As Apple Pencil is sealed for life, if the battery is damaged is fails, the only remedy is replacement of the Pencil itself.
I hope this clarification helpfully answers your question.
