Notes Making through iPad pencil

been using the pencil with goodnotes and the apple notes app for about 6 months now. 

I have the silicone cap only for the pencil tip not the entire pencil but I guess it will answer your problem of speed. I don't think it reduces speed on the contrary I feel the added friction (minimal) gives a better writing experience. I didn't like the smooth and slippery feel on the surface earlier.

@TheNotorious hey. I have the 1st gen pencil.
also I have a normal screen protector not paper like or any other similar friction producing one. not sure if the silicone protects the tip any more than it would last without one but I prefer writing with a cap on. If u have paper like then I guess u can use the pencil without the cap as well. I don't have the full pencil cover and just a cap works fine for me.
