Power Platform Community Forum Thread Details

Hello, I am developing an app that allows users to take photos of receipts and upload them to a document library. The app works perfect and as an extra touch I wanted to have it so if a user is on the road or somewhere without data they can go through the process as normal but the data will just be saved locally to a gallery. Once the user is back online they can go into this gallery and press a "Upload" button and the data will be sent as normal.

As far getting this to work goes I have accomplished that. The two issues I have are as follows:

1.) If I have no data or connection I cannot even get into the app

(I know this one should make sense but I feel in the past Ive been able to open and load powerapps even when I dont have wifi)

2.) If I turn my phone into airplane mode while in the app I cant do anything as in even if I click a button with navigation controls it wont even load a screen.

Could this be an issue with a certain connector I am using or is this just plain not possible. I watched a great video by @ShaneYoung showing that this is possible and I cant seem to get this to work in my situation. In his videohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NwbqdA9j8Ek he turns his phone to airplane mode and is able to load his app even without wifi.

My connections are as follows:

Office365Outlook

Office365Users

MicrosoftPowerAutomate

Sharepoint

Please let me know if anyone has any advice it would be greatly appreciated!
