Chime in: How well does Surface Pen work on privacy screens or screen protectors?
Would a Surface Pen work on a device that has a screen protector?

An interesting question popped up in our forums the other day, asking whether or not the Surface Pen would work on a device that has a screen protector on. It's a good question because it's not immediately obvious if it would.
The answer, however, is a positive one. The Surface Pen should work just fine on a device with a screen protector, because the magic that makes the pen work on the screen is under the screen, so it's designed to work through material such as glass and screen protectors.
I have screen protectors on my Surface Pro 3, Surface 3, and both iPad Pros and the pens/pencils work fine. I use matte protectors because I hate glare and fingerprints and the texture improves the feel of the pen/pencil to me.
