Mobile offline overview (classic)

Set up mobile offline synchronization to allow users to work in offline mode on their mobile device. Mobile offline allows users to use Power Apps in offline mode and interact with their data without an internet connection.

The mobile app provides a rich offline experience that helps users stay productive. You can use basic commands such as create, read, update, and delete when you're offline. Once you're back online, the changes that you made on the mobile app are automatically synchronized with Microsoft Dataverse.

The offline experience uses Azure services to periodically synchronize tables with the mobile app so that synchronized rows are available when a user's mobile devices is disconnected from the internet.

Before you set-up the mobile app in offline mode, be sure to review Mobile offline capabilities and limitations.
