Supported features

The following features are supported offline:

• Browsing content: If offline mode is enabled, offline content is preferred. All content will load without an internet connection, with the exception of a few Github-based examples and large video files.
• Collections: Previously saved articles will appear and you’re able to browse your collections. However, adding or removing articles doesn’t work without an active internet connection.
• Notifications: Previously received notifications will be displayed and can be read. However, notifications read while in offline mode will not be marked as read for later, and cannot be starred without an active internet connection.
