There are a couple of threads here and there that try to explain grabbing an advanced copy of the community files, mainly for the PC. There is a complicated process to get it to a tablet/iPad that's been explained as well but I can't summarize it for the non-technical very well. A good lead is in this thread.

For PC:
Go to here.
Find the Clone/Download button and download a zip of the current master branch.
Unzip that downloaded file into your HL 5e data folder (default: C:\ProgramData\Hero Lab\data\5e).
Restart Hero Lab if you had it open.
Pray it works.
If it doesn't delete anything that starts with COM_ in that 5e folder and re-download the supported version.

That's about as nontechnical as I can put it. If you know how to fix .user files or troubleshoot, you can take a chance with the not-fully-tested files or provide feedback in the issues section of the github.
