The method to turn on your stylus pen depends on the type of stylus you have. Some stylus pens work without needing to be turned on, while others require a power button activation or charging. The Youtube video titled "Stylus Pen for iPad" indicates that the stylus pen discussed works without Bluetooth. Here's a general guide:
Types of Stylus Pens and How to Activate Them:
- Passive Stylus (Capacitive Stylus): These stylus pens don't usually have an on/off switch. They work by mimicking your finger on the screen. There is no need to turn them on.
- Active Stylus: Active stylus pens require power and often connect via Bluetooth. These pens will typically have an on/off switch.
Steps to Turn on an Active Stylus Pen:
- Locate the Power Button: Look for a button, often at the top or along the side of the stylus.
- Press and Hold: Press and hold the power button for a few seconds. Some pens may have an LED indicator that lights up to show it's powered on.
- Check for LED Indicator: The LED light usually indicates the pen is on and sometimes also shows the battery level.
