While the app is still under development, you can head over to the XDA Developers thread to vote on new features and sideload the APK if you choose. Its also available in the Google Play Store.
Our rating 4/5, a lil buggy as it is still in the development stage, but we hope to see more in future. Untill then, try it out.
