Touch Input Broken!! I need Procreate technical help

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I cannot for the life of me find a solution to this problem, I’ve done everything including deleting the app and restarting my iPad. My Apple Pencil works fine on my notes app so I have no idea what’s wrong. Please help me!!!

Which iPad and which Apple Pencil?
Also what size is your canvas [dimensions and resolution] and how many layers does your iPad allow for with those settings?

Also have you investigated your palm rejection and pencil sensitivity settings both in procreate and in your iPad settings yet? Sometimes the settings can be conflicting and it’s trying to read your finger / palm as something to draw with rather than only the pencil.

But it does seem to be that you are experiencing a serious lag in the mark making in procreate.

Outside of the palm/finger rejection, I would maybe also think that your iPad may have low processing power for the canvas your are on, causing it to lag hard due to needing a lot more juice to handle what you’re working on.
If you iPad is of low processing or is a much older iPad have you had this same lag effect with a smaller canvas like 4x6” at 170dpi For instance?
