Better Support for Apple Pencil

There’s a pencil tool in Figma, but Apple Pencil doesn’t play nicely with Figma on iOS (e.g. Safari, Chrome for iPad) without unofficial workarounds. But it does work with unofficial workarounds, so…

I would be happy with limitations such as:

a) a special Figma file type that supports Pencil-only tool (but can export SVG into a “real” Figma file
b) an experimental flag that you can set, with the expectation that it may break
c) support (or unofficial recommendation) of a stylus that does work better (I have tested some but they all seem to not work super great)
d) that I have to download a specific third-party browser to get it to work

And if you need an alpha/beta tester, well, you know how to find me. =)

Hey @anon21722796 just wanted to let you know that the latest update (the one that fixed Figjam on iOS Safari) also seems to fix this well enough for Figma as well. So you can close this? Thanks!
