DNA triangulation app

I have been using the DNA citation maker app for a while now. I have tried to do my first triangulation, entered the 3 WikiTree IDs, and then the source box does not have Ancestry as a DNA match source, as it does in the simple match section. Can anyone please shed light on this? Most of my matches come from ancestry.

Triangulation cannot be done using matches on Ancestry.com as they don't show chromosome segment details.  See https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Help:Triangulation#AncestryDNA_Triangulation.  Triangulation can be done if all three testers upload their tests to sites like GEDmatch or MyHeritage.
