Whilst you can write in the scratch pad, when your wrist touches the screen it doesn't ignore this as with fully supported pencil applications and you get random lines on the scratch pad. It would be very useful to have this support as the pencil is also a very good interface tool for accuratley selecting user way points, for example. Many thanks Sackbutt

Like switching between writing and erasing with double-tap. Greetings from Germany +1 I’ve recently switched from paper+pen to iPad + Apple Pencil and after few flights I love it. However, the scratchpad is very rudimentary in SD currently and even some basic features would improve it massively (eraser!).

I wouldn't even want/need all Pencil features implemented - main thing would be to ensure the basic Apple Pencil features like palm rejection works well as that caused problems at the moment using Scratchpad with the Apple Pencil at the moment. Plus maybe an easy eraser option like a "scribble over to erase" feature
