There is no auto-updating, so check back soon to see if we have released an update!  When 0.9.4 officially releases, it will be put into the market as usual.

Important installation/update instructions for Kindle Fire users: To install the beta (or any non-market release) on the Kindle Fire, you must uninstall the Amazon Market version first. Similarly, when you no longer want the beta, you must uninstall the beta version *before* installing or clicking "update" from the Amazon Market.
