Business value

This feature gives users visibility into data that is being downloaded for offline support on Power Apps mobile.

Feature details

When you use Power Apps mobile in offline mode, data is downloaded in the background. In the past, the only way to check the status of the download was to manually go to the offline status page.

With the new Offline Sync notification feature, users can easily tell when the app is ready to use in offline mode. Notifications appear in the following scenarios:

  • During the initial sync, you'll get a notification that tells you the number of rows downloaded and how much disk space is used. You'll also get the same notification when the app is used after some time.
  • When you refresh the data on a grid view, you'll get a notification stating: Refreshing your data.
