65438+February 2 news, a recently exposed patent document shows that Apple Pencil will support iPhone, which means that the application scope of Apple Pencil will be expanded.
Apple's patent mainly describes an effective method to determine the position of the stylus on the touch screen. However, it is easy to see from the patent map that this is an iPhone and even marked as a mobile phone.
It has been reported before that Apple may bundle small Apple pencils on the iPhone of 20 19. With the successful promotion of full-screen design with iPhone X, Apple has proved its ability to maximize the screen display area without increasing the size of the mobile phone.
In May of this year, Cook said in an interview with Indian TV station NDTV that you would be very surprised if you ever watched other people's creative process on iPda or iPhone. Perhaps Apple had already tested the expressive power of Apple Pencil on the iPhone. It is also this interview that makes the outside world full of expectations for the iPhone to support Apple Pencil.
In addition, Cook doesn't want to regard Apple Pencil as a bulky stylus. Apple Pencil is quite different from the traditional stylus in function. Cook firmly believes that even Jobs, who hates the stylus, will be happy to see Apple Pencil.
