The software doesn't know when you mailed your tax return, so it will continue to say that.

You can check the status of your tax return 4 weeks after you've mailed it, using Wheres my refund.

Paper-filers: The IRS asks you wait 4 weeks after you mail your return before looking up your refund at Where's My Refund?
