I noticed the same just now.  The Canvas Apps is still listed in the release notes, but I don't see it in our production Canvas instance at all (neither as a menu in our root account or in the feature options area).  I'm asking our CSM about it.

I have "Apps" in my instance. I was just browsing through it.

It actually now shows up. I wonder if it was just a delay or something. Either way, glad it's there now!
