Apple pencil pro squeeze and double tap not working on any app

Hello, I recently bought an apple pencil pro for my iPad Pro (M4) and the squeeze and double tap features were working but out of nowhere is just stopped working. I tried disconnecting and connecting the pencil again but nothing changes.

Apple Pencil Pro Squeeze not working? Hello, just received my iPad Pro M4 today and it’s updated to the latest version. The Apple Pencil pro works and has haptic feedback when tapping to switch from pencil to eraser in procreate, but the squeeze function is not working. I’ve tried toggling it on and off in settings, restarting iPad, closing the app and reopening it again and none are working. Any tips for me that I might have missed?

M4 iPad Pro 13 inch Apple Pencil Pro not accepting squeeze and double tap settings. In Settings, Apple Pencil shows "off" for squeeze and double tap. When I touch and select an option and return to Apple Pencil screen, still shows "off". If I go back to settings, the correct item is checked. Squeeze and double tap do not have effect, for example in Notes. Hover and roll do work in Notes. running 17.5 (21F84) Restarted iPad. Forgot Pencil and reconnected, still same behavior. Advise me, please.
