[ARCHIVED] Apple Pencil not shwing up in annotation barpp

[tszyman]

My Apple Pencil stopped showing up in my annotations bar. I've restarted my iPad, relaunched Canvas, and tested Apple Pencil in other apps. What should I try next?

Hi @tszyman - Do you experience this issue with any PDF available to annotate, or just some? Are you working in the Canvas Student or the Canvas Teacher app?

[tszyman]

I'm using the Canvas teacher app, and the icon doesn't show up for ANY submissions right now. It used to show up but doesn't anymore.

In addition, the  icon used to show up even for Google doc submissions. Of course I couldn't use the Apple Pencil to write on those submissions, but it always showed up. Now when I go into Canvas, the icon never shows up anywhere. I also just updated my iOS, and nothing has changed.

i'm now running 15.0

That's helpful. Which version of the app are you using? Is there an update available in the Apple Store?

With the release of iOS 15, there's a chance that you may see a hiccup that has yet to be documented. Can you double-check the version of your Canvas Teacher app? It should be Version 1.13.3.
