Couldn't check for 24 hours incorrectly changes to display success state on retry #66

Describe the bug, issue or concern
When the app hasn't been able to check for 24 hours, a notification is given. Clicking the notification brings you into the app with a warning that the app hasn't been able to check for infections for over 24 hours. Clicking the retry button instantly changes the app state back to a green checkmark with "The app is active", but after 24 hours the same error appears.
This incorrect switching to a "success" state gives a false sense of security and severely complicates troubleshooting this situation.
E.g.
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Expected behavior
Retrying should cause the same "couldn't check for 24 hours" error to pop up, as the check clearly hasn't succeeded in 24 hours.
Screenshots
Impossible, app blocks creating screenshots (why? what security issue is this supposed to solve? there is no private info on the main screen of the app...)
Smartphone (please complete the following information):
Additional context
This issue started appearing when I went to another network with a rather aggressive adblocker on it, so I assume my actual issue is some web URL being blocked. A list of URLs the app needs to access would be very helpful in letting me ensure my own safety, but the false reporting of the app (stating it is running successfully when it isn't) is a much more scary issue.
