Will the records I made offline be lost if my phone's battery dies or it turns off in the field?

They aren't lost. Every record you save without signal is written to the phone's memory before the screen shows it as saved, so it survives a dead battery, closing the app or turning the phone off, and it uploads by itself the next time you open Owari Agro with a connection.

What is protected

  • Everything you managed to save without signal: a task, an advance, a new employee, a change or a deletion. You'll see it in its table with the «Waiting for connection» badge.
  • Pending records stay there even if you log out: sign back in with the same user so they upload.
  • If your plan expires while you're offline, what you already saved isn't lost: it waits and uploads when you renew.
  • Each record is removed from the phone only once the server confirms it was received.

What isn't protected

  • A half-filled form. If the phone turns off before you save, that part isn't kept: the app doesn't save drafts.
  • Clearing the browser data. If you clear the site's or the browser's data while there are pending records, they're deleted from the phone and can't be recovered.
  • Private or incognito windows. Whatever is saved there disappears when you close them, and in Safari's private browsing offline mode doesn't even turn on.

When it uploads

Uploading happens with the app open: when you open it with a connection, or as soon as the signal comes back while you're using it. With the phone off or the app closed nothing uploads; pending records wait. They upload in order and, if something can't go through, it's kept for you to review instead of being deleted (how sync works).

How to check it's safe

  1. Look for the «Waiting for connection» badge in the table where you made the record.
  2. Tap the blinking wifi icon in the top bar: it tells you how many changes are waiting to upload.
  3. When the signal comes back, a notice confirms how many operations were synced.

Before clearing your browser or switching phones, open the app with a connection and wait until nothing is left pending. If you want to know where everything lives on the phone, read what the mirror table is.
