Hello Miro Team, I am pretty sure you guys on fire now with huge demand for your product, but Miro need an offline mode for iPad, it is just not possible to use it if connection interrupted, people are using this not only for constant collaboration, there a lot of people who do some preparation for projects, and these situations not really need the connection. But when you can’t use the app it is the most frustration time, when you start thinking why such smart people couldn’t figure out this.

Do not listen PMs if the telling you this is not what customers need! We need this! We need to be able to work with app in any conditions.

this do not has to load everything, just have some sort of buffering of last sessions, we need this mode to add something new, not to view old.

 

Hope to see it soon.

Not only will offline mode be more convenient to work in Miro when I travel or am not connected to the net, but the recent outage was terrifying for me as a facilitator who relies heavily on Miro every day. 


@Jonathan White :

miro belongs to my life - it has changed my whole work (and it’s doing this more and more) - even in my freetime I use it.

No idea what I would do without it. :scream:

The offlinemode will make an 100% product to a 500% product … finger crossed :fingers_crossed: that some day we will see this ...:sunrise:

Miro is a great app and soooooo useful to me but no ability to work offline was shocking surprise for me. I work mostly alone and I won’t even create any mess. At least it shall work like icloud notes I think.


Miro is not only a collaboration app. It is by far the best digital whiteboard I have tested so far. I am afraid using miro as my main Thinking/Planning/Organizing tool, as I cannot access my notes at any time, everywhere.

The missing offline mode is holding me back from using the full potential of your app.

Please implement an offline mode for iPad! 

My suggestion would be to have a switch to set the board to offline mode which will make the board online read only. This way only one person (the one who set it to offline mode) can do changes to the board until he/she checks it in again to online mode. So you have no troubles syncing changes made by others.

Please check the feasibility of this. 


I can only second this. I’d say about 60% of my work in Miro is pre- and post-workshop, which I like to do on the road, with varying coverage (or none on flights and in remote area). This would really be a gamechanger to me.

Offline Mode would be totally great!

 

best regards!


+1 :thumbsup:


Offline mode would make me buy it. Hopefully, I’ve found offline tool to fit my needs.

Agree with this 100% as we seem to work in similar circumstances.

I use Miro solo 80% of the time - the other 20% is during team collaboration or delivery of workshops. 

I would buy and/or subscribe if Miro had:

  • offline mode for travel, connection or coverage issues
  • upload/download of boards
  • email address that creates a post it note on the board for when inspiration strikes

It’s already a great product that I’m grateful to have found during COVID19 and now use everyday to store my ideas, inspiration, work and well - everything. I save so much time by being able to make an idea visual, look on brand and to share it quickly.

But I am a bit worried as I double down on the product that I’ll get caught out when I need it with these missing features. 

Lastly, not everyone has the same privilege and accessibility can be an issue when trying to collaborate globally without an offline mode. 

 


Completely agree; we should be able to work offline on our boards! Not all airplanes have wifi, not all places have cell reception.

 

IT WOULD MAKE A HUGE DIFFERENCE!


Come on Miro-people! I really need it, like right today :wink:

I prepare workshops for students in Miro. And I am commuting a lot by train, what a waste of time, not being able to prepare my workshops…

Your templets are lovely, but it's not only UXdesigners or business people who are using Miro. So I prepare workshops for architecture students for example. Imagine what a mess would it be such if 100 students come into empty Miro board to collaborate in that empty space…

 

So def +1


I know! Just call it a "template making mode" :wink:


Miro needs to understand that us business people travel and fly on airplanes that have spotty connections. when i am flying, that’s when the brain power is generating ideas especially if you are flying back from your meeting and ideas our piling up. Would be great to go into Miro right away and save time - capture in the heat of the moment 

 

at least let us create new boards that are offline and then publish them when we get to the office or something like that. 


We have been testing Miro and it seems to have a place in our development process, UNTIL we saw it has no offline mode. Not sure how a company in this day and age of travel and work and getting things done between hotspots, etc, can have a product that doesn’t do offline mode. It was one of the first features of Gmail when it first came out. The folks at Google knew that people would have to do work without a connection at times. 

Please let us know if this is being added as a feature. If not then we will move on to another product.


Would be really nice...


Just tried working on my local files while on the road. Turns out the desktop app is not functional offline. As so many other people commented, it’s critical to ensure your products are available online/offline to ensure a seamless cloud solution. It’s not rocket science. It’s common sense. You can do it, Miro.

 


Where is the answer by Miro on the communities requests for offline mode? Could someone at miro please provide some customer service and respond to this requested topic?


Same.

When it was realtime board it had the offline feature, then Miro removed this.

This is vital guys. 
Such a pain when traveling, especially on long haul flights, visiting clients and places with bad WIFI. I have to work around Miro’s limitation rather than the tool enables me to work more efficiently. 

MASSIVE PAIN POINT

 


yes, we need offline mode


Ofline mode would be great, I was having internet connectivity issues and just needed to jot ideas while my internet got sorted. 


Any update on this?  I understand that some features just cannot work in offline more like embedding a youtube video and other server-side functionality , but simply being able to make stickies and things like that would be great.  

 


I want to use miro to collect inspiring designs on large boards (kind of an image gallery). But with online mode, the images load too slow for that kind of usage. Plus, every time i access the file, I have to download all the images again. It would therefore be a help if the images would be saved / loaded from my local hard disk. So looking forward to that feature!


+1 +1 +1 PLEASSSSSSE


offline use would really be beneficial! at least being able to access the materials without an active internet connection is a must!


I think offline is just a good idea for everybody. Imagine if your iPhone required that you put everything on iCloud before you could even work with it. Anybody like that idea?
