Offline/Emergency Backup Plan
Introduction
There is always a possibility that unforeseen events may occur that prevent you from accessing your online/digital solution. This could be anything from severe weather to widespread internet outages, and even technical outages unforeseen from our end.
As such, we suggest that all services have a procedure in place where they spend five to ten minutes at the end of every week preparing reports that can be accessed locally in the event of an emergency situation. Along with these manual interventions, we also have Offline Mode available on our Mobile Apps to assist your service.
Offline Mode on Mobile App
- Within the Mobile App > click on Settings
- Toggle ON the Offline Mode option
- Once configured, this will allow the device to revert to Offline Mode in the event internet connection is lost.
Offline Mode is available on all mobile devices for the App. This will allow your service to continue several daily functions in the event that Internet connection is unavailable
Internet Connection is unavailable at service
- Will automatically kick in when internet connection is lost.
OWNA is experiencing technical downtime
- To manually kick this off, turn the device into flight mode.
