However at this point in the migration, when the personal user is active, the switcher is in the account tab. When the business user is active the sidebar will have the switcher.
Our engineers hope to implement a fix for this, which should be rolled out in future app updates. But meanwhile, kindly continue to use the above workaround to switch between accounts.
Workaround now given below.
We are in the in the process of migrating the account switcher to be on the account tab for all users, and removing the sidebar menu.
However at this point in the migration, when the personal user is active, the switcher is in the account tab. When the business user is active the sidebar will have the switcher.
Our engineers hope to implement a fix for this, which should be rolled out in future app updates. But meanwhile, kindly continue to use the above workaround to switch between accounts.
Thanks for bringing this to our attention, Terry32.

Can you try the steps in this article, to clear the app's cache and see if that helps?
\n\n
If not, try uninstalling and reinstalling it as well.
\n\n
Let me know how it goes!
