Can't switch to Beta client

I've been using the Beta client for months with no issues, but this morning I switched back temporarily (I thought) to the old version just to look at something. Now I can't switch back to Beta! I click on Settings, but the menu option to switch to Beta is gone. It only says "Version Information."

Is there a different way to switch to the Beta client?

Why would anybody switch to Beta? What exactly is the difference?

1. There is a separate "Armies" tab to manage different armies, order by size, strength, location, speed, or ID.

2. You can pin provinces, troops, and cities to keep track of your key armies and cities.

3. You can make it so you can filter between separate types of troops (e.g. only Armoured Cars, or exclude all Interceptors, etc.) or filter between moving troops, stationary troops, patrolling troops, troops that are being bombarded, etc.

4. Everything looks 10x cleaner.

5. You can change the leader's title, name, doctrine flag, and country flag.

It takes some getting used to, but I 100% recommend it.

What do you mean by doctrine flag? You surely aren't suggesting we can change doctrine.

No, you can't change the doctrine. You can, however, change the flag of the doctrine. For example, by default the flags are the American flag for Allies, the German Iron Cross flag for Axis, the Imperial Japanese flag for Pan-Asian, and the Soviet flag for Comintern. You can change these if you like.

Umm, they are (for the most part, the filtering different troops was removed ig)...? Dunno bout mobile, but those were the features present on the Beta Client for desktop, and they are still there:

I have armies but filtering out single units is not a thing; gotta select everything first instead.
