Picture this: You're in a client meeting, at a remote site, or traveling — and suddenly, your internet drops. No worries! With Quixy’s Offline Mobile Access, you can continue recording data seamlessly without any interruptions.
Whether you're logging travel expenses, meal costs, or other transactions, Quixy’s offline mode ensures uninterrupted work. And once you're back online, everything syncs automatically—no extra effort needed.
Getting started is easy! Just follow these steps to enable offline access:
Open the Quixy web application.
Navigate to the App Configuration page for the desired app.
Go to the Settings tab.
Scroll down to the Accessibility section.
Toggle on the Offline Access switch.
Click Save to confirm your changes.
After enabling offline access in the web application, follow these steps in the Quixy mobile app to get started:
Log in to the Quixy mobile app.
On the Dashboard, tap the Profile icon in the top-right corner.
In the Profile menu, select my-offline-apps.
A list of apps enabled for offline access will appear.
Toggle on the switch for the apps you want to use offline.
Tap Save to confirm your selection.
A confirmation message will confirm that settings saved successfully.
What Happens If You Lose Internet?
Imagine you’re entering data in your application, and suddenly, your internet connection drops. No need to panic! The system automatically switches to the Offline Dashboard, ensuring you stay informed. Here’s what you’ll find:
⚠️ You are offline banner: A quick alert notifying you that your connection is temporarily lost.
📋 Pending Records Count: Displays the number of records waiting to sync once you're back online.
📝 Draft Records Count: Shows records saved as drafts for future edits or submissions.
🕒 Last Sync Timestamp: Indicates the last time your data was successfully synced.
Note
The details displayed on the Offline Dashboard are based on records saved during your previous offline session. This ensures that you can still track earlier records while continuing to add new ones offline.
Adding Records in Offline Mode
From the Offline Dashboard, tap the Menu button to view the list of offline-enabled apps. Select the desired application, and you'll be directed to the Add Record page.
On the Add Record page, after entering details, you can:
Save Draft: If you’d like to edit or review the record later.
Submit: If the record is complete and ready to sync once you're back online.
Note
All draft records will be listed under the Draft Records panel on the Offline Dashboard. On the other hand, submitted records will appear in the Pending Sync panel until they are successfully synchronized.
Managing Offline Records
Upon tapping the Profile Icon in the top-right corner of the Offline Dashboard, you'll find two key options to efficiently manage your offline records:
Initiated Offline: This section acts as a waiting room for records that have been submitted but are still in the queue, waiting to sync once you're back online.
Drafts Offline: This is where your saved drafts are stored, allowing you to review, edit, or submit them whenever you're ready.
Want to check your drafts? Simply tap Drafts Offline to view a detailed list of saved records, each labeled with the App Name and Timestamp, so you can easily track when they were created.
Need to make changes? No problem! Select any draft to edit the details and submit it when you're done. Once submitted, the record moves from the Number of Draft Records panel to the Number of Records Pending Sync panel on the Offline Dashboard. These records will remain there until they successfully sync once your internet connection is restored.
Switching from Offline to Online Mode
When your mobile device reconnects to the internet, the Quixy mobile app automatically switches from offline mode to online mode. During this transition, the app will take you to a screen where you can see your offline data syncing to the cloud.
While synchronization is in progress, you won’t be able to perform any actions within the app. Once the sync is complete, the Quixy mobile app will display a summary of the synced data, ensuring you stay informed.
