The Dashpivot smartphone app can be used seamlessly when offline, when you don't have wifi or an internet connection. It operates the same as when you do have connection, allowing you to take photos and fill out forms. Once you regain connection, the app will upload the information in the background.
Note: there are some limitations to keep in mind:
The app is selective about what information it stores locally on your device to access when you're offline. It stores a list of all your teams and projects, but only stores data from the team you last opened before you went offline, including: all template formats (so you can fill out forms), the latest 300 photos, and the last 30 forms per template.
If you switch teams while offline, you will not be able to fill out new forms in that team. Instead you can only capture photos.
When you regain connection, you need to open the app to trigger it to sync the information with the website, and need to leave it open until the upload is complete. Exiting or shutting down the the app during this upload period will pause the upload until you re-open it again.
Any pending/paused uploads will remain stored locally on your device indefinitely. This can be cleared by uninstalling the app, or manually clearing the local storage in the settings.
The ideal flow is as follows:
In the Dashpivot app, go to the team you intend to upload information to when you're offline
Capture photos and forms while offline
Open the app and leave it open to let it upload when you regain connection
