Not sure which iPad you have? Identify your iPad model.

If you have a fifth generation iPad, as you’ll see from the compatibility list, your iPad does not support Apple Pencil. Support for Apple Pencil was introduced with the next generation of iPad - iPad6.

Sorry, whilst I’m sure this is disappointing news, I hope this clarification is helpful.
