I am trying to develop an app for physiotherapist to file reports for their patient using their smartphone. The app needs to retrieve a list of patient names, and then the practitioner file the report.

What I am trying to improve is the latency involved in retrieving the latest patient list from the server. As internet connection may not be fast, there may be some seconds of delay when retrieving the list from the server.

Is it possible to have an offline database in the app, where the app only need to query against locally (kinda like echo used in testing). Whenever the patient list is updated in the server, the server will then push to update the data in the offline database in the client.

Please advise.

Warmest regards,
Dandy Ling

Hello,

Yes, this is possible.
You can create app to work in offline mode.
