Offline Mode

Working without internet connection

provvio is built to work even when you don't have internet access. That matters for sites in basements, remote properties, or buildings with poor reception.

How Offline Mode Works

When you lose connection, you can still:

  • Check in to a site
  • Complete checklist items
  • Take photos
  • Add notes
  • Capture a signature
  • Check out

Everything is saved locally on your device first, then synced automatically once you're back online.

What You'll See

When offline:

  • An offline banner appears at the top of the screen
  • Everything works normally; data won't upload until connection returns
  • The home screen shows a sync status indicator if there's pending work

Syncing

When connection returns:

  1. The app automatically starts syncing
  2. Visit data, checklist completions, notes, photos, and signatures upload in the background
  3. A short Back online banner confirms sync is happening
  4. Reports and SMS notifications fire after the visit is fully synced

Tips

  • Don't worry about losing data - everything is saved on the device first
  • Sync happens automatically, you don't need to do anything
  • Connect to Wi-Fi if you've got a lot of photos waiting to upload
  • GPS data is captured locally even when offline, so check-in times stay accurate
