Business value
Make it easy for both low-code canvas app developers who have basic offline needs and professional canvas app developers who require advanced offline functionalities. They can both enable their apps to function in remote areas with little to no network connectivity.
Feature details
You can now enable offline mode for your canvas apps, which allows users to continue using their canvas apps even without an internet connection on mobile devices when using the Power Apps mobile app. The Power Apps sync service relies on an offline profile, which determines the data to download to the device. You can either create a custom offline profile or have one generated automatically.
If a user is working in offline mode, the sync service operates in the background to maintain synchronization between Dataverse and the device. There's no need to use the Power FX LoadData or SaveData functions anymore.
