The entire app has been rewritten. This is to address performance issues, make Android possible, but most importantly, it lays the groundwork for more work to come!

Theres also a ton of small bug fixes included in this release.

would you think about adding the APK to your github for folks that don't want to go through the google play store? and also so people can test it before they approve the builds?

I can't commit to anything without reading up on the process – I'm less familiar with Android – but I don't see why this couldn't be done. Apple is a pain with signing your app for App Store vs outside the App Store distribution. But I suspect the process is not as complicated for Android. I'll look into to.

That being said, I will likely prioritize Play Store first.
