Hmm that's actually something I hadn't thought about, but yeah it probably wouldn't work for an offline mode... If the app is already open, maybe it would work, but I'm not 100% sure. In general, it does require internet to connect to your home assistant (my phone is setup with wireguard to VPN into mind so it's not internet facing). So yeah unless it can be used during those random connection drops, maybe not a perfect option :(
oh ok. I am using Nabu Casa Cloud for mine so i am always online via cloud. i tested it with enabling flight-mode and the app goes directly to the disconnected state. Altought the app I developed for a share grocery-list has the same issue, so I will give HA a try anyway :) so still a good recommendation ๐๐
