Offline-first config so the app works when the signal does not

Practical steps

1. 1

   Open settings then offline. Set Offline-First to On. Confirm the offline storage cap is at least 2GB.

2. 2

   Pre-download today's project assets at the start of the day, while still on Wi-Fi.

3. 3

   Confirm the project list, snag list, and inspection templates are all available offline.

4. 4

   Test: turn device airplane mode on. Create a test record, take a photo, save. Confirm the record is in drafts.

5. 5

   Turn airplane mode off when back on Wi-Fi. Confirm the test record syncs and disappears from drafts.

Key takeaways

• Pre-download in the morning, sync in the evening. This rhythm makes offline-first invisible.
• Test offline-first every Monday. If it fails, fix before someone tries to use it on Tuesday.
• Drafts should be empty by Friday evening, every week.
