How can I make my Adalo app work offline?

[Wiseman]

Hi everyone ,

I’m building a mobile app in Adalo and I’d like it to work even when users don’t have an internet connection.

I’ve already tried using static screens and the Local Storage component, but I’m still not sure how to properly sync data (like progress, lessons, or scores) once the user reconnects.

Could someone please explain the best way to make an Adalo app partially or fully functional offline?

Should I use any specific marketplace components or external integrations (like Xano or Airtable)?

Is there a recommended workflow to cache data locally and sync later?

Any examples, videos, or app templates would be super helpful

Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi @Wiseman,

There is no easy and reliable way to make Adalo app work offline.

Basically you will have to create your own way to store local data (local storage component is way too primitive for that) and to display this data to the user. Also you will have to implement your own authentication routine, local storage for images and files, syncing back to the database, etc. etc.

To do all this, you will have to write a lot of custom code, and overcome the limitations of Adalo platform.

Best,
Victor.
