Using Inshore offline

This guide covers exactly what works in Inshore without signal, what needs a connection, and how things catch up once you're back in range.

What works offline

• Viewing every spot, log, and catch you've already saved.
• Creating, editing, and deleting spots, logs, and catches. Changes save immediately and sync once you're back in range.
• Browsing the Tides tab, using the last tide data it fetched for your location.
• Changing settings like theme and Spot Matching Distance.

What needs a connection

• Signing in, signing up, or resetting your password.
• Changing your password or email, deleting your account, or signing out.
• Viewing any map, a spot's full-screen map or the map view in the Spots tab.
• Fetching new tide and weather conditions for a log. If you save a log offline, you can still enter conditions by hand, Inshore fills in the rest automatically once you're back online.
• Adding a new photo to a spot.

Common questions

Will I lose anything I logged offline? No. It saves locally right away and syncs automatically the next time you have a connection.

How do I know if something is still waiting to sync? Look for the sync status indicator near the Settings icon.

Can I still see my spots on the map with no signal? No. Map tiles need a connection, so both the Spots tab map and a spot's full-screen map are unavailable offline. Switch to the Spots list view to see your saved spots without a connection.
