How to Sync Offline Notes in Plato Mobile App?

Plato’s offline mode is designed to help you stay productive even when working in areas with limited or no internet connectivity.

To use the offline mode, you can download your properties on Plato. Once this is done, you can create notes even when disconnected from the internet. In this guide, we will look at how syncing your property data on Plato works.

So that you ensure all your notes, images, and videos are securely stored and accessible across devices, and you can enjoy conducting your site audits seamlessly!

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Download a Property for Offline Use

Before heading to a site, ensure you download the property you want to work on while connected to Wi-Fi. This will allow you to access it later without an internet connection.

Step 2: Create Notes in Offline Mode

When offline, you can create notes, add images, or record videos directly in Plato. These notes are geo-tagged and saved locally on your mobile device.

Step 3: Understand Un-synced Changes

While your device is offline, the updates you make will appear as "un-synced changes." This status means your data is safely stored locally but not yet uploaded to Plato’s cloud servers.

Step 4: Reconnect to Wi-Fi

To sync your changes, open the Plato app on your mobile device when connected to Wi-Fi or mobile data.

Step 5: Watch the Sync in Progress

The app will automatically begin syncing your unsaved notes. You can monitor the progress within the app’s sync status indicator.

Step 6: Verify the Sync

Once the sync is complete, all your notes, images, and videos will be securely stored on Plato’s cloud servers. These updates will also be accessible across your other devices.

Key Details and Tips

Sync Regularly: To minimize the risk of losing unsaved notes, aim to sync your changes every two days.
Avoid Uninstalling the App: If you cannot see your unsaved notes, do not uninstall or log out of the Plato app. Contact our support team for guidance.
Stay Connected: Ensure a stable internet connection during the syncing process to avoid interruptions.
