Apparently I can use pencil ✏ as a stylus to navigate around in my phone. Is it a feature? Haha

With high sensitivity on 1020 of course, but I tried it with 520, didn't work.
And not by the to end, non sharpened edge I mean, although sharpened one works just fine.

It does work for me, the pencil is not freshly sharpened (used/blunt/not pointy if you must). I can make a video if you want.

What phone are you using? Mine is 1020 with touch sensitivity high.
I'll be sharing a video shortly.
