      As a preview program member on xbox, my beta version (updated Feb 20 2019) is on a newer build than the current mobile device version(updated Feb 5 2019) which makes it incompatible with cross platform play. I'm sure this issue has been reported however i feel like this could easily be resolved by simply implementing an option in the settings to simply change builds so that beta testers may test the newest update while retaining compatibility with quote "outdated versions." I'm sure you are working on bringing other platforms up to date yet this issue seems like a simple fix due to an oversight on the devs part and almost seems counter intuitive to the whole point of the Better Together Update. On that note, even though i am aware i opted in as a beta tester and would receive updates earlier than most, without the ability to change build versions then if the update isnt ready for all platforms how can you release it at all on the cross platform version of the game?
