Updated to 156. New screen gives instructions to activate new ad-blocker - wrong!

I upgraded to 156 and the new tab informs me of a new ad-blocker feature. It tells me to open Settings - Browing - Ad Blocker. I did that and that option is not appearing!

And it tells you to open that on an iOS device it pertains to, or on your Windows?

The Ad block feature is in Firefox on iPhone/iPad (iOS/iPadOS) and not desktop Firefox on Windows, macOS, Linux.
