    The current production channel is still “beta” for now.

    There’s an internal track I’m doing testing releases on but that’s limited to 100 spaces sadly.

      Oh cool, so I’m already using beta! Is there any way to force an update to get the upper mentioned changes?

            Just got it on my end, didn’t show up as a pending update in the My Apps section until I searched for the app manually - seems to do the trick!
