Activating Offline Mode on iOS Devices

Overview

Activating Offline Mode on iOS allows testers to simulate network loss and limited connectivity scenarios directly on the device. Enabling it during testing helps validate app behavior when internet access is unavailable, including error handling, data caching, sync recovery, and user messaging. This ensures critical flows remain usable, graceful fallbacks are in place, and the app delivers a reliable experience even in real world connectivity conditions.
