They shut it down mess than 12 hours later for me. It was buggy and never really showed me any cards but I hope the launch version fixes this.

lets just wait few more days for Android 6.0 and we have now on tap!

I'm on 5.3.29.19 version on preview 3 and all icons search bar etc. Have been rethemed but still telling to wait for gnot

Well working perfect now tried to screenshot with my above post but had to start a new xda account and can't add images due to low post counts. Have been searching all day for the best 5.1.1 rom to get exposed back but this little jewel might keep me on marshmallow.... But I'll probably change my mind n an hour lol

can it be ported to kitkat or lolipop?

The first time there's an update it will notify you and if you want it to automatically update ,you have to check the box to enable auto-updates.

The new Android Market will be rolling out in the coming weeks to Android 2.2 and higher phones around the world. You don’t need to do anything - the update is automatic on supported phones. If you’re in the U.S., you’ll also be able to download the Videos app, rent movies, and buy books once you receive the new Android Market.

Just because an update might be rolling out for one particular device it doesn't necessarily mean all the Nexus hardware will be getting said update, so keep that in mind.
I haven't seen any mention of 4.2.2 recently, guess it'll happen soon enough (unless some people are trolling Reddit which is pretty common these days as the site gets more popular every minute).

Maps automatically updated from the Play Store today on my S4, it says it is being rolled out slowly so maybe just a select number of downloads at a time while they test it? Not sure.
I like and dislike the new update.
The new UI is pretty smooth and clean.
However they removed the option for zoom buttons. You used to be able to decide if you wanted to display them or not, now there is no option what so ever. However they've added a little help file that shows all the gestures and one i was unaware of (or maybe it is new, probably not) is double tap and hold then drag up to zoom in and drag down to zoom out. Makes up for the lack of buttons I suppose since you can still zoom in/out with one hand/finger.
Another thing I'm a little sour at google for sending the way of the dinosaur is latitude. I always enjoyed stalking my friends, but they've decided to kill latitude altogether. I got an email from google today:
Hello,
Earlier today, we announced that Google Latitude is no longer part of the Google Maps app, and we're retiring Latitude on August 9, 2013.
This means that after August 9, your Latitude friends list will be deleted and you'll lose the ability to share your location with them. There will also be some changes to Location Reporting and Location History, including changes to third-party applications that use Google Latitude. Please see our FAQs for more information.
We understand some of you still want to see your friends and family on a map, which is why we've added location sharing to Google+ for Android (coming soon to iOS).
Thank you for using Google Latitude.
Sincerely,
The Google Latitude Team

So looks like now in order to stalk friends they must use google+ and enable location sharing. Oh well.
Otherwise I am pleased with the changes.
