No signal? Keep logging. It syncs when you're back.
Four states, one small pill.
The sync pill at the top of the app tells you exactly where your entries are — no guessing whether something made it to the sheet.
No connection. New entries, edits and deletions are saved on your phone.
Some changes are waiting in the queue to be sent to Google Sheets.
Back online — the queue is being sent, oldest change first.
Everything on your phone matches your Google Sheet.
How offline sync works
1 · Saved on the phone
Every entry goes into a database on your device first, so the app never depends on the network to accept it.
2 · Queued in order
Changes made offline line up in the order you made them — adds, edits and deletions alike.
3 · Connection spotted
Voice Sheet keeps checking for a connection in the background. No need to open anything or tap retry.
4 · Sent to your sheet
The queue is sent oldest first, so your Google Sheet ends up exactly as if you'd been online all along.
What you can do without a connection
| Feature | Offline | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Manual entry | Yes | Forms work as usual; entries are saved and queued. |
| Editing & deleting entries | Yes | Changes are queued and applied to your sheet later. |
| Recent Entries | Yes | See what you've logged, including what's still pending. |
| Reminders | Yes | Scheduled on your phone, so they still arrive. |
| Quick Capture | Draft | Your text is kept as a draft; submit it once you're online. |
| Voice entry | Best online | Understanding your words uses an AI service, which needs a connection. |
Where the signal drops, the logging doesn't.

Can I add data to Google Sheets offline?
In the Google Sheets app you need to set up offline access per file. With Voice Sheet, every entry is saved on your phone first and synced to your Google Sheet automatically when you're back online.
Do I have to do anything when the connection comes back?
No. Voice Sheet checks for a connection by itself and sends the queue as soon as it can. The pill switches from Pending Sync to Synced.
Will entries end up in the right order?
Yes. Changes are sent oldest first, in the order you made them.
What if I edit an entry before it syncs?
The edit is merged into the queued entry, so only the final version reaches your sheet.
Can I use Voice Sheet with no internet at all?
Yes — choose device-only mode and your data lives on your phone. Voice entry and Quick Capture need a connection to understand your words; manual entry works fully offline.
Is offline sync free?
Yes. Offline entries with auto-sync are included in the free version of Voice Sheet.
