Public opt-in in release channels not working
I enabled "Enable public opt-in" for my ALPHA and BETA release channels, yet I can't find a way that users can opt-in themselves to the app through the Oculus software or website.
With a test account, I've tried searching for the app by full name in the Oculus Store (website, mobile, and in headset) or by using a direct link to the app listing. Neither of these works.
How are users supposed to opt-in themselves?
Thanks you.

Same question from me. I'm very confused by how this is supposed to work.

Having the same issue. Not clear at all how a user could opt-in to alpha or beta channels.

Anyone figure this out?

I'm also struggling with this. Does anyone know what it's supposed to look like when it's functioning correctly? i.e. where the option would be located?

Guys I've got it!!!!!! I asked my Discord users if they could see any way to enable it and one clever person figured it out. You can't do it from within the headset but if you open the Oculus app on a mobile, go to the app details and tap the version number, you can choose the build! Here's a screenshot he took to make it clear what to do:
