Answer
IPAD
IPAD (4 letters)

Explanation

The answer to “Target for the Apple Pencil” is IPAD. It appears as 49 Down in the Wall Street Journal crossword of November 2, 2026, a Monday puzzle titled “Poll Position” by Mike Shenk, and it fills 4 squares running top to bottom from row 12, column 1 of the 15×15 grid.

The clue is a straightforward definition, so the answer is a direct synonym or a factual match for the words as written. The entry begins with I and ends with D, and contains 2 vowels and 2 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Across entries should be enough to lock it in. Monday puzzles are the most approachable of the week, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
