    I was on the Beta testing program for NoteShelf 2 and now have purchased the final product. I use it primarily on my iPad Mini 2 with a Wacom Bamboo Fineline 3 stylus. I love the product itself, but am having an issue now where the stylus isn’t recognizing the auto wrist guard feature upon being “woken up”. The folks at NoteShelf are blaming this on iOS 11 and my stylus but my stylus continues to work perfectly in the original NoteShelf. Anyone else experiencing stylus issues with NoteShelf 2?
