iPadOS 16.4 out now with Apple Pencil improvements, 21 new emoji, bug fixes, and more

Apple has released the latest major update to its iPadOS 16 operating system, bringing enhancements, bug fixes, and security updates to iPad including tilt and azimuth support for Apple Pencil hover, 21 new emoji including new animals, hand gestures, objects, and more, support for notifications on web apps added to the Home Screen, and more.

The update adds tilt and azimuth support to Apple Pencil hover, allowing users to preview their mark at any angle before they make it in Notes and supported apps on iPad Pro 11-inch (4th generation) and iPad Pro 12.9-inch (6th generation).

iPadOS 16.4 fixes an issue where Ask to Buy requests from children may fail to appear on the parent’s device, addresses issues where Matter-compatible thermostats could become unresponsive when paired to Apple Home, and resolves an issue with Apple Pencil responsiveness that may occur while drawing or writing in the Notes app.
