Are you asking it to get to a very low percentage?
If you can see the damp, in a deeper colour, outline it with a pencil - it just gives a day by day marker of the drying progress -
I guess it's only dealing with the top surface first and not the deeper substrate

Unless you have a very well sealed room it will always pull an amount of water out of the air as the air is being replaced by the damp(er) air from outside.
As long as you don't have 75% + humidity in the room it's 'dry'.

I have a dehumidifier. We have an open plan kitchen, living room and dining room and it pulls about 5 litres every 2/3 days.
I don’t even think our house is damp. But still so much water.

Dehumidifying question:
I have a dehumidifier running in my very small (currently non-functioning/unused) bathroom.
There was a leak in there, which I've repaired.
I've ctaped up all the gaps i can to the outside world and keep the door closed basically all the time.
Dehumidifier is still pulling out 1.5-2l water a day.
I don't want to re-tile until I'm confident that things are dry.
Guessing I need to wait a bit longer?
