You can't directly adjust the sensitivity of your Apple Pencil. The pressure sensitivity is a fixed feature determined by the hardware and software of your iPad and Apple Pencil. However, you can try a few workarounds to achieve a similar effect.
Using Drawing Apps
- Adjust Pressure Sensitivity Settings: Many drawing apps, like Procreate, Autodesk Sketchbook, and Adobe Fresco, allow you to customize pressure sensitivity settings. You can often find these options in the app's settings or brush settings.
- Reduce Pressure Sensitivity: Lowering the pressure sensitivity in the app will make your Apple Pencil less responsive to light pressure.
- Adjust Curve: Some apps offer pressure sensitivity curves. You can adjust the curve to make the pressure response more gradual or less sensitive.
- Choose Brushes: Some drawing apps have different brush types with varying levels of pressure sensitivity. You can choose brushes that react less dramatically to pressure or use brushes that are designed for specific tasks, like outlining or filling.
Using Accessibility Features
- AssistiveTouch: If you're using an iPad with AssistiveTouch enabled, you can use the "Tap" gesture to emulate the Apple Pencil's pressure sensitivity. This allows you to tap on the screen to draw or write without applying pressure.
- Switch Control: You can use Switch Control to interact with your iPad using external switches. This can be a more controlled way to draw or write without relying on pressure sensitivity.
Remember, the Apple Pencil's pressure sensitivity is a key feature for its versatility and accuracy. While you can't change it directly, you can adjust your drawing workflow or use app features to achieve a similar effect.
