In today’s world, staying connected is crucial, but there are still moments when users find themselves without internet access—whether during travel, in remote areas, or in places with unreliable networks. So I propose adding offline functionality to the Universal GUI.

Features:

  • Essential Offline Access: Users can access and edit data while offline, with changes automatically syncing once they’re back online.
  • Lightweight Mode: The offline version could focus on key functionalities to ensure speed and security.

Offline capabilities in the Universal GUI would greatly enhance the flexibility and robustness of the Thinkwise platform, allowing users to maintain productivity anytime, anywhere.

There are offline functionalities, but they are completely limited by the way Thinkwise is designed.

I upvote ...

Please know that we are gradually extending the Offline capabilities of the Universal UI. We intend to do so based on very specific Use Cases provided by Customers who are eager to take the developed solution in Production. In general, we aim to support so called Field Service scenarios which mainly have to do with Inspections / Service jobs. So please do let us know what exactly you wish to do in an Offline state.

A bit of context:

  • Current Offline capabilities: Offline menu tasks with limited support for Controls (Domain with elements / Barcode / Text / Numeric should all work)
  • Next release: Support for the Image upload Control in Offline menu tasks, to allow you to include pictures in an offline executed task.
  • Q3/4 2025: Support for Offline subject data (Read only) on which Offline table tasks can be executed.
