Not really a proper beta test, just giving it a few hours so we can confirm that it fixed a few bugs for specific people.
If you previously signed up for beta testing through Google Play, this new build should show up as an update within a few hours. Otherwise, you can get it:
a) Through Google Play. Sign up for that at:
https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.pleco.chinesesystem
(no more Google Group necessary thanks to a recent Play update) after which you should be able to get it right from there.
b) Directly from our website; APK at:
http://cdn.pleco.com/androidapps/plecodroid-150917-website.apk
Should be out officially tomorrow assuming we've actually fixed the things we think we have.

Changes:
- Added human-checked Cantonese readings to CC-CEDICT, so it's now viewable + searchable in Cantonese. Note that this currently only works in the Play version, but will be available in non-Play ones as well as of the official release. (iOS users, we've already submitted a build to Apple with this same updated database, just waiting on approval)
- Added a "None" TTS engine option for people who don't want to be bothered by TTS icons next to sentences.
- Fixed some crashing / stability issues when switching between a lot of tabs, primarily on older versions of Android.
- Fixed a nasty memory leak in the File Reader on some older devices.
- Worked around a recently introduced bug in the "Multiling O" third-party keyboard that caused handwriting recognition to output every intermediate stage in drawing a character rather than just replacing it.
- Fixed a bug that kept the text file reader from restoring document locations reliably in some cases.
- Fixed a bug that prevented Cantonese tone colors from appearing correctly in some situations (mainly on pronunciation rather than characters).
- Fixed a bug that sometimes kept the "keep screen on" option from working reliably.
- Fixed a bug that prevented the undo button from working correctly in the handwriting input box in left-handed landscape mode.
- Fixed a bug that caused audio genders to alternate unexpectedly when advancing with the reader through a document with audio auto-play enabled.
- Fixed a bug that made the alternate "plecobundle.plc" manual bundle file installation method fail on devices with very buggy firmware.
- Fixed a crashing bug when taking still images for OCR on some other devices with very buggy firmware.
