How offline mode works

Capture data without signal, sync when you're back.

Updated 22 Apr 2026

Offline mode

CanvassIQ is offline-first. The mobile app stores everything locally first, then syncs to the server when a connection is available.

What's stored offline

  • Your assigned area and all addresses within it
  • The active survey definition
  • All responses you capture during your shift

When sync happens

The app attempts a sync:

  • Every 60 seconds when online
  • When you tap Sync now in the app menu
  • Whenever the app comes back to the foreground

What if I lose my phone?

All in-progress data is uploaded as soon as the app reconnects, so a lost or broken device only loses the responses captured since the last successful sync — usually under a minute.
