Seems like they are generally not available on Android yet. Not even on the Google Play Store

Yeah, it seems to be out for everyone on Google Play now

I set up a username a few days ago, but I had to opt into the beta on googleplay (I really wanted a username, fucking finally)

I was able to set my username today on the desktop windows app but it prompted me to. I can't find where to change it on that or android.

Guess I don't have access to the feature yet. And I have the beta version too.
