Apple Pencil gen 1 quit

How can you tell if Apple Pencil is no longer working. It won’t sync with blue tooth. I’ve tried various things and wonder if it died. It was very sudden but also happened after an update to 15.2.

iPad, iPadOS 15

Plug the Pencil into the Lightning port on the iPad. If it does not pair and start charging, then its no longer functional.


If it spent a long time discharged, the tiny internal battery may have failed.
