Apple Pencil to Gain Arabic Calligraphy Tool in iPadOS 19

Washington, 20 May (ONA) --- Apple will introduce a new calligraphy pen for Apple Pencil users that will allow them to digitally write in Arabic script.

According to Bloomberg, Apple plans to offer a "highly advanced bi-directional keyboard" for moving between Arabic and English on iPhones and iPads, alongside a "virtual reed calligraphy pen" for Apple Pencil users on iPad.

The two upcoming new features, expected to arrive in iOS 19 and iPadOS 19, play into Apple's ambitions for Arab markets where the company has been recently expanding its retail footprint.
