I hadn't heard of it, but searching for the app turns up its project in
GitHub

https://github.com/projecthamster/hamster

The fact that it has 244 "forks" in GitHub tells me you're not alone in
feeling you have some improvements on the original.

Maybe you would prefer making your own fork; then when there's an update
you can merge the changes from GitHub automatically. Alternatively maybe
others would appreciate your changes so you can offer them as a pull
request to the developer(s).
