Apparently it doesn't show up for everybody, what platform and browser are you using? Did you try another one? I'm using Chrome on PC, for that matters.

Try another device, some people reported it doesn't work on certain configurations :/ It's incredibly weird, others say the option doesn't pop at all, I've had it since it was introduced ._. I guess I am lucky...

Thanks for the split @emanuele  :)
