Offline Functionality

If for any reason the mobile device or desktop becomes disconnected from the network, any volume status updates will be saved in the browser (indexed DB). When a network connection is re-established the updates stored in the browser are automatically sent to the database. This feature allows the app to continue to be used during intermittent periods of connection loss.
