Use case

Hello

I'm selfhosting wger on home server that I start on demand (currently) & it's only available locally - I don't plan to access server from outside my network.
I noticed that wger mobile app starts only when it has connection to the server, so w
hen there is no connection to the server app is useless - works just like a webwrapper.

Proposal

Could you make it work offline & sync data when server is available? It would be nice for people that rely on app daily, but might end up being away from internet or just from the server.

Offline sync could be available only for ,,critical resources" like training plan, diet plan etc. without exercises videos or other stuff, that people need once to learn the things & later just need to know when to do things.
It would make the app feel more like an app then a wep wrapper.

When using other apps like e-mail client, signal or anything really we don't need to connect to internet to check what we did sent do somebody or in case of f.e. nextcloud - you still have all the files on device, you can use them in most cases (unless you set it different).

I'm not a developer, I can't tell you how to do it - but I think it would be really beneficial for users in some cases.
