Are you sure it's because of the update?
I was going to say I'm having approximately the same problem (the app says my almond is offline), but then I first checked on my Android, and I have the same thing there.
Connect.securifi.com also shows it's offline.
As a test, I connected to the vpn-server, no problems there.
Probably just problems with the cloud-service, like a couple of days ago?
