Flexilis Beta Release 2 is Out!

We’ve just pushed the first client update for our private beta! This update contains many new bug fixes and several enhancements for both the mobile client and the server, and we’re all very excited about it. You can read the entire list of new features, bug fixes, and enhancements on our changelog. Notable changes include:

  • Significantly improved the device activation process to be quicker and easier
  • Added the ability to change the display of the homescreen plugin on Smartphones
  • Improved compatibility with Windows Mobile 6.1 devices
  • Lots of bug fixes on the client and server

Current users will receive this update automatically at their next sync. For anyone that has been waiting to install the software, now is a great time to get started!  Just log in to your account, click ‘Add a New Device’, and then follow the instructions on the screen.

Please note: Old clients will no longer be able to activate with the server. If you have downloaded Flexilis but not activated, please re-download the new setup file if you have not already registered your device with Flexilis.

Thanks to everyone that contributed feedback and bug reports for this release. If you need help or would like to send us a report, you can e-mail support@flexilis.com or use our contact form to get in touch with us any time. We love hearing your feedback and everything that you send us makes a big difference.

Thanks!

    I’m having issues with my usb port after upgading to beta 2. My pc doesn’t detect my blackjack2 once it’s plugged in.

    I forgot to mention that I’m running WM 6.1…

    @konfuzion – hi and thanks for beta testing! We appreciate your feedback. If you could please send a quick note to – support / at / flexilis / dot / com – we will get right on top of it.

  5. ITGuy says:

    Will you have a way to support multiple devices on different platforms?

  6. John says:

    @ITGuy – Yes, you will be able to manage the security of your mobile devices in a group setting (across multiple platforms). I’m guessing your needs are in a business context – we’ve got you covered.

    I have installed and run both versions of the beta sucessfully on my blackjack 2 running wm6.1. I had one question, it shows security events on my home page and on the main status screen. I can look at these events, but how do I clear the alert on my phone’s homepage and the alert on the programs main page?
    Thanks and its runs great

  8. John says:

    @rhys – Glad to hear that the beta is going smoothly. Are you wanting to “zero out” the events after you have checked them or actually disable the home screen plug-in?

    If you would like to disable the home screen plug-in, then open the Flexilis application and hit [Menu --> Settings --> Homescreen]. You can customize your settings according to your liking.

    Let me know if this answers your question.
