In situations where a stable internet connection is not available, you can Download Projects in advance and work offline with our docu tools app.
Ensure that you have a stable internet connection at home or in the office for the Download process. Please follow the guidelines to ensure smooth data synchronization.
NOTE: Depending on the Project size, internet quality, and device capacity, the Download may take some time. Please do not close the app before the process is completed, as this can lead to errors and incomplete data Download. For larger Projects, it is a good strategy to let the Download run overnight.
