Is it possible to use pandora in release mode?

I'd like to use pandora in release mode. I know it's supposed to be used in debug builds, but I have a published app in Google Play in a closed testing track, and I'd like to use it here.

Is it possible? I have this gradle import, but it only works for debug builds:
```
implementation 'com.github.whataa:pandora:androidx_v2.1.0'
```
