Apple Pencil Pro Squeeze to Erase Issues

Hi,

Since Notability changed the Apple Pencil settings from within the app to within the iPad settings, there’s been a noticeable bugginess when squeezing the pencil to erase. This is pretty inconvenient for when I’m writing and I want to quickly erase a letter/word and the app doesn’t erase it, even after the eraser gets selected and I can see the transparency of the stroke I’m trying to erase decrease. It still happens if I try to erase slowly. I have a M2 iPad Air 13” and am on 16.5.2, if that helps. Thanks!

UPDATE: I believe it’s an issue with the “Apple Pencil hover” option- after disabling the problem goes away (I think). Something about the app trying to decide what strokes I’m about to erase before I make contact with the pencil is bugging out the app.
