On an ipod touch can i use a little plastic pen like the one that the Nintendo DS uses?

Question

If I could where could i get 1 because i don't have a DS?

Answer 1

No, the ipod touch is only sensitive to the touch of your fingertips. It can be annoying at first but you'll get the hang of it and be typing fast like me in no time.

Answer 2

NO

Answer 3

go ahead.......heat a rod and then do  

Answer 4

im not sure, because

1. it might scratch the screen

2. theyre not made for ipod touch

3. it might not work as well because the ipod touch responds to fingers, like fingerprints.

Answer 5

just use your finger

Answer 6

No, the ipod touch uses heat a pressure to input.

Answer 7

I don't know if it would work, BUT you can go to like wal-mart or gamestop and look at the game accesories, they have the little 'replacement' things for DS's.

Answer 8

no becausethose pins are made for that screen and that type of usage..i pod touches are not

Answer 9

No, you have to get a special one. The iPhone and iPod Touch use a special interfact that reacts to your skin, not a hard pointer. Look at this if you want one.

Answer 10

Well you could... but the DS plastic pens are like $20 from a normal Game Store. You should search around on the internet and find a cheaper one. Just search Stylus on google. Enjoy the iPod Touch, they are soo cool!!

Answer 11

or you could just use your finger like everyone else????

unless you captain hook of course!!

Answer 12

Yes you can use a stylus on it and you can get them at any video game store such as gamestop or ea games. I have also seen them for sale at 5 below

Answer 13

it doesn't work aswell as using your fingers.

they sell separate pieces for the nintendo ds, eb games, walmart, etc.

Answer 14

If you try to use a stylist to tap on stuff ith your iPod touch.

It will not work,

iPod touch requires only your fingertips to be able to tap on stuff.

The iPod touch senses heat from your finger pad so that you can be able to press stuff.

So i am afraid you cannot use a stylist for an iPod touch.

Oh, and.. i think they sell some stylists at the electronics department.

Answer 15

Actually, on mine you cant. And i would imagine it would be the same for all of them. Its finger touch thing, so im sure you couldnt use a stylis of any sort. Sorry budd, hope i helped!

Answer 16

the ipod touch has to use the finger because the screen the touch contains heat sensors which is used so the touch doesnt start to play whenever something touches the scrren.

Answer 17
