Version 6.1.0 brings PDF support directly in the app, a new multi-start-page menu, and a significantly extended scan rule system. On top of that, a number of stability improvements and bug fixes across the board.

Type	Description
🚀 Feature	PDF files now open directly in the app – enabled by default, no additional app or manual setup required.

With version 6.0, TheFlex places a clear focus on intent-based scanning.

The new scan listener enables significantly more flexible and robust processing of scan events and is specifically optimized for the keyboard setting “Active on tap”. This is complemented by extensible intent listeners for system and app events, improved debug and network analysis, as well as numerous optimizations to the JavaScript structure, plugins, and UI.

In addition, the app has been streamlined, device support expanded, and several issues in network and URL functions have been fixed.
