Is there anything preventing third parties from also releasing Apple Pencil variants that support the Duo? I kinda yearn for a short little compact version

@christianselig I assumed they’d already have been made, or imminent. I wonder if @marcoarment has found anything?

@yertle @christianselig I can’t get the third-party pencils I have from Metapen, etc. to work on the Duo.
I’m guessing they use the same mechanism that Logitech Crayons use for universal compatibility without pairing, which I can’t get the Duo to recognize in any way (cabled pairing, Bluetooth, etc.). Probably why the Crayon isn’t listed as being compatible with the Duo on Apple’s site.
The Apple Pencil USB-C pairs differently, via cable. Seems like ONLY that works on Duo, at least so far.
