Day 2 Lateral Flow won't work - do I care?

So as I understand it, as of 4.00 tommorow morning vaccinated people will no longer be required to do a Day 2 test when returning to the UK.

I am vaccinated and returned to the UK Wednesday evening from Europe. So at that point I needed to do a Day 2 Lateral Flow. So I ordered one from Randox. I've used them successfully before when PCR tests were required. However, I cant use the test they have sent me because the only way to report your test is to use their stupid Randox Certifly app which is currently broken on Android - I've tried deleting it and re-installing it many times and multiple users in the Google Play app store are reporting the same issue.

Is anyone likely to care that I haven't certified my (negative) Day 2 Lateral Flow test when they finish in a few hours? Can I get another one somewhere before midnight if so or use someone elses app?

I'm not sure anyone had ever actually checked if the day 2 tests are actually done...

that's what I am thinking .... it was just a money making scam for Boris's mate really wasn't it?
