Mark attendance when there is no signal

How attendance behaves in a hall with no reception, and why nothing is lost.

  1. 1

    Open Attendance before the service while you still have signal, so the roster is cached.

  2. 2

    Mark people present or absent as normal. Each mark shows instantly.

  3. 3

    A mark that has not reached the server yet is labelled 'Saved on this device'.

  4. 4

    When the connection returns, queued marks sync automatically — no action needed.

Worth knowing

  • Repeated taps on the same person are collapsed, so nobody is double-counted.
  • Every mark can be undone straight after with the Undo action in the toast.
  • Queued writes survive closing the app, reloading, and signing back in.
