if I understand the release notes correctly, you press and hold the profile icon at the bottom to switch accounts.

Thanks! But that is far from being intuitive. I get it that once you know, you know… but still…!
I like the new placement myself, but agree it’d be hard to know to long press the button if you didn’t know about it.
I think adding something to the Settings -> Accounts section would make sense as a secondary, more visible, option. Could show the active account and allow you to switch from there. Could also have some text detailing the “hold profile” option to help train users. The section already lists the active account so just need some sort of selection dropdown or “make active” button next to inactive ones.
I’ll be damned. You are right. My bad for not reading the release notes through.
Thought for the devs, though. Seeing as some people might be getting the app later, there should be an onboarding thing for these functionalities I think.
I mean, in a couple of updates, I don’t think people would read through all the old release notes and stuff.
Looks like you did figure it out, but I was thinking last night about this after uploading...
"Hmm, might not be the most intuitive way for users to know how to switch..."
I'll throw something into the account screen that explains how to do this.
