I'm looking to invest in a stylus for drawing on my new iPad Air, but it's way too expensive. Do you guys actually use Apple Pencil or is there some alternative that works well and doesn't break the bank? What do you recommend?

The Apple Pencil Pro really is the best integration if you want to take full advantage of everything the iPad offers, but if you're on a tight budget, the Logitech Crayon or brand models like Huawei and Samsung work just fine and cost way less 🎨. The thing is, most drawing apps run smoothly with cheaper styluses, and you won't feel that much of a difference in everyday use, especially if you're just starting out. My advice is to test one in a store or borrow from someone before you decide, because how each stylus feels in your hand is pretty personal, and sometimes a simpler one works great while you're still figuring out what drawing style actually clicks for you 😊
