In v2.6.1, the notification widget was black when connected and white when disconnected, and there was a separator between the information area and the "Connect" or "Disconnect" button. It was clear if I was tapping in the information area (which goes to the VyprVPN app) or the button.
Now (2.6.2) the separator is gone and it's not clear where I'm tapping, and the background is always white which makes it harder to see if I'm connected or not.
