Access & Work Off-line within Smartsheet (Sheet level)

Enhancement Request: Access Smartsheet off-line and allow work to be saved for upload at a later time or once online access is available.

The most common use case is travel (i.e. airplane, passenger in automobile). However, there are scenarios where internet service is compromised (i.e. warehouse buildout, remote areas with bad service, temporary outages, etc.) where this applies.

Need to be able to update meeting minutes, take notes/brainstorm, update financials, update project tasks/schedules while not being connected.

  • So many scenarios where this is needed where one cannot get internet access. Google, Microsoft and others have had this kind of functionality for years. PLEASE SmartSheet! Even if it is only the ability to update content in cells as a minimum viable feature.

  • This would be so useful.

    When smartsheets went down recently we had no way of accessing what is vital to the running of our organisation, had offline mode been available we could have worked on that.

    This is crtitical to one of my teams that works in and out of warehouses and buildings without internet service. Please make this possible!

  • Offline mode feature is a must for remote / in the field teams!

  • I can't believe this isn't possible! This feels incredibly basic. Come on smartsheet! You remind me to save every 10 minutes, to you must have a feature that is allowing you to update in bulk. Especially if no one else is shared on a sheet!

    This is definitely needed, fairly sure this worked several years ago, used it while flying and said it wouldn't update until online

  • Definitely needed for mobile people!

  • Agreed, we need an offline version to be able to access reports and data

    Agreed. our team often travels and the plane has limited wifi. We flat out can't use smartsheet for our projects bc it's not reliable that we can review it on the plane.

  • Really disappointed to find that accessing Smartsheet offline is not possible and also not on the radar as a future improvement. In cases like travel and also with the mobile phone app, offline access would be a game changer and would make an enormous difference to my productivity. This is such a big issue that I will have to move some of my work away from Smartsheet onto a system that does allow offline access. Please consider making this change.

  • Absolutely necessary for me, I manage installation projects in areas without good service very often. When my company was first evaluating Smartsheet this is something we asked about, and were told it was coming soon; that was back in 2021. Seriously considering another project management solution. Please Smartsheet! I pushed for us to go with you guys!

  • I maintain and use Smartsheet reports and webapps for ships, it an absolute must to maintain data visibility or indeed update offline for syncing later. I could be wrong but weren't reports available offline in the mobile app until recently?
