Power Apps app on Windows Desktop

Hello - just joined the forum.
We have a PowerApps app that uses dataverse offline.
The PowerApps mobile app appears to handle the lost internet connection quite well and syncs when back online.
Our users are using the PowerApps app on a Windows laptop/desktop. And the offline capability doesn't quite work a expected.
I was expecting to see the "not connected to the internet" icon when I disconnected wifi - however I didn't get that - it just looked as if it was connected to the internet.
I do get the "syncing" icon when I come back online.
It feels like the desktop app isn't as up to date as the mobile app - is that correct?

What formula are you using to display the not connected Icon? I just tested using the Windows App on one of my Offline samples and the following code works for me in the Windows App. It will not work in the web browser, only in the app.

Concatenate("Connection ", Connection.Connected)

It shows "Connection true" when connected to Wifi and "Connection false" when I turn off Wifi or disconnect from the network.
