Again, no worries, nothing is wrong with me, but I did some more testing and I can confirm that {wazapp-status} is empty right after reboot, and only then.

As soon as splashscreen appears when wazapp is started (in my case via autostart) status changes to offline and as soon as connected to online.
After that it is always either online or offline, no matter what I do...Swipe down (of course no change), exit button, close connection...
It never reverts back to empty until next reboot...
