Can I see a brush tip preview instead of a brush stroke preview in Photoshop on my iPad Pro?

@meneak74 Yes, you can see a brush tip preview in Photoshop on your iPad Pro, but the feature works differently than on the desktop version of Photoshop. On newer iPad Pro models (with the M2 chip and newer) that support Apple Pencil Hover, you can see a live brush tip preview. When you hold the Apple Pencil just above the screen, a small preview of your brush shape and size will appear, similar to a mouse cursor on a computer. This is the most direct way to get a brush tip preview.
