A user says,

I don't know if it is possible or not to change this but RethinkDNS will show 'Protected with TOR' even if Orbot has crashed.

Today, the app doesn't show whether the device is disconnected when Rethink is forwarding connections over Tor.

Rethink could establish connectivity checks (ICMP? DNS?) over SOCKS5 tunnel, to detect any connectivity drops?

What about what SagerNet does? Using a button to send a request test url that can be changed

The SagerNet developer is also a wizard (: We're mere mortals.

URL probers for connectivity checks are do-able. Let's see.
