Pencil tilt problem

I find the pencil tilt only works in one direction, I think this is a bug. When you angle the Apple Pencil, the pencil line should get thicker like a real pencil does on paper. This only works in Fresco in one direction; I have to rotate the paper 90 degrees to get a thicker line. This isn't how it's supposed to work. It's the angle of the pencil that matters, not the direction of the paper.

 

im using the first generation pencil and a 2nd Gen 12.9 iPad Pro.

I am still having this issue. I want to use fresco but its broken. When you hold your pen at 90 degree its behave like tilted, if you tilt your pen then it behave like its not tilted.

Update: just checked this on procreate and the tilt works properly, so it's not a hardware or general iPad problem. Must be fresco. I'm sure it used to work normally otherwise I would have noticed sooner. It's a real issue as it affects my entire workflow. It's like drawing with a broken pencil!

Tilt doesn't work at all. Newest iPad Pro and newest pencil. Just downloaded Fresco recently.
