Beta channel

In order to receive updates quicker than others, you need to do two things:

1. Join the G+ group so you are eligible for testing: https://plus.google.com/communities/102264813364583686576

2. Then explicitly enable beta versions of the software at: https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.mycelium.wallet

As Beta Testers, please make sure you have a recent backup of the masterseed and all private keys inside Mycelium. Beta testers will experience many bugs. So far, restoring the wallet from masterseed has never been necessary, but we offer no guarantees.
