Recommended! Better than anti-glare screen protectors!
Very nice to write with, like a real pen working on my iPad Pro. But it wears out. I mean maybe it doesn’t wear out very quickly but it still does in a noticeable pace. Mine wears out every month for each tip. Also some times it’s really easy to lose if you like playing with your pen while thinking. But overall recommended! Definitely much better than installing an anti-glare screen protector on you iPad.

Makes your Apple Pencil work so much better
I tried out the paper like/feel protectors and they were very disappointing. like writing on sand paper and they reduce the resolution of the screen. Threw them away. These nib tip protectors are fantastic. The pencil works better for every application: drawing, text, control. Especially good when using Apple Scribble. A big added bonus is that they really cut down on the noise for when you are in a class or quiet library or wherever. I really like having the iPad screen clear and clean without the protector. Not sure yet how long they last but no matter, they come in a batch of 10 and are very affordable. No problem to stock up. I highly recommend these to anyone using the Apple Pencil. it is like a whole new thing.

Great but don’t last long
These work great and really make the grip of the pencil better and quieter writing but durability is lacking, I go through approximately 1 every 2 weeks

Great!
Installs well and silenced the loud tip noise on the screen. Perfect for meetings. Will only purchase these - great compatibility.

Wore out too fast
Did not like how these fell apart so fast! Not a good value.

Everything in the product description is true, with maybe one caveat...
All the claims in the description of this product are true, this nib feels really nice on the iPad, it is silent and feels like writing on paper. However, I do a lot of drawing, taking serious advantage of the pressure sensitivity of the Apple pencil when using digital “brushes.” In two days (maybe 6 hours total time?) I wore a hole through one of these nibs. I should say, though, that my Apple pencil tip was already worn, possibly a bit sharper than when it was new? This might not happen if these nibs are installed on a fresh pencil tip. I also read on the Apple website that the oleophatic coating on the iPad screen will wear away in time anyway (which does not make me happy!), and am wondering if the drag from this silicone tip will speed that process. I had a matte screen protector (Paperlike brand) on my iPad before to provide a similar effect, it also worked really well to make drawing feel like paper, but I took it off because such intensive drawing heated up the processor, and I thought removing the screen protector might make a difference. Turns out it didn’t. (The heat is a problem known to Apple, and they do recommend avoiding glass screen protectors.) I expect these nibs will be fine for someone who doesn’t use the kind of pressure with the pencil that I do, and might even be fine on a new (unworn) Apple pencil tip. I bought new pencil tips, will try a fresh nib and hopefully remember to update this review after I use it awhile.Update: using these nibs on a brand new Apple pencil tip, a hole still wore through one of them in a day’s work, due to the pressure I often use. So I’d think they would be great for people using the pencil for note taking or light sketching, I just can’t recommend them for extensive digital “painting” (such as using Procreate or Adobe Draw).

Terrific addition to the iPencil
This little tip really adds just enough friction to keep the iPencil in line! It stops the pencil from gliding too fast across the surface, and makes handwriting just a bit easier to deal with.

Worn off after 30 min
Not worth it.I bought it to use with my iPad for drawing. I decided to use tips rather than putting a matte screen protector since I like my iPad screen to be clear and bright.The material is kind of like soft sponge. And the tip started to break after about 30 min of using. It is not very durable. Not very protective.

SUPERÓ MIS EXPECTATIVAS
Al principio te va a tomar tiempo para desarrollar exactitud al escribir, en mi caso, ya a la semana podía escribir y dibujar con bastante exactitud. Lo recomiendo totalmente.

Might look funny and but does the trick...
I've recieved it in a test tube-like container which was kinda cool. At first I wondered if it would work with my iPad's screen protector (it was a normal glass screen protector not the matt finished ones) and it worked great and almost perfectly recreated the experience of writing on paper... I don't think it can get any more realistic considering you're actually writing on glass.It doesn't seem to be very durable though but obviously you get 10 which should last you atleast an year depending on how frequently and intensely you use it I guessI find that matt screen protector limits the display in minor way so this was a great alternativeIt works for both generations of the apple pencil

Great for drawing, not much difference when writing.
Right off the bat I will say: they aren’t a sticky rubber. I was worried they’d be like other stylus tips but they are smooth and silky-like with just enough friction to steady the hand.But that’s exactly what they are for, just steadying the hand! Just as a cautionary these *do not* double as a stylus tip for other devices. I tried it on my iPhone and fire tablet and neither responded with anything near consistency, but they don’t claim to do that I just thought it would be worth mentioning.They also don’t allow gestures that you could normally only do with your fingers like swiping down the control panel.I didn’t notice a huge difference in my writing between these nibs and without, only that using the nib does facilitate hand fatigue like using a real pen while the bare Apple Pencil sliding on the glass does not.I’ve attached a comparison using GoodNotes 5 to show that sensitivity still works perfectly. The biggest bonus I’ve seen is that when writing very slow (see lines on the bottom left) it prevents the wiggle of my hand wavering / shaking and keeps it steady. Very good for drawing! But no benefit when writing once you’ve gotten used to writing on bare glass. I find my writing tends to have extra stroke dots when using the nibs.Final thoughts / TLDR: These are a great hand steadying alternative to a paper like matte screen protector if you’d like to preserve the screen clarity, however they still give you hand fatigue as if writing on paper, shouldn’t be an issue when drawing / painting.I also did not find that these slowed my writing at all.

Fit well and work well
They do help the Apple pen not scratch or slip on my iPad mini. Small and you get quite a few. Pretty awesome.
