How offline work flows
Think of the phone as holding a copy of the project. Two actions keep that copy and Zite in step:
Sync brings the project's setup to the phone — sites, forms, tasks, contacts, beneficiaries and the project plan. Sync while you are connected, before you go out.
Upload sends the work you have saved on the phone — forms, and any contacts or beneficiaries you added — to Zite. Upload when you are back on Wi-Fi or mobile data.
In between, you work as normal: everything you fill in or add is stored under Saved until it is uploaded. Sync and upload are separate actions unless you switch on Auto Upload (page 5). A phone can go days without a connection; just keep it charged and do not sign out or uninstall the app while items are waiting in Saved.
