Work Offline

If you need to work on a document offline, you can do this easily by selecting the document from the file, and choose Work Offline option under the ellipsis (...).

            

A document will be downloaded to your device, where you can open it to edit further (this will be located in your device Downloads folder).

            

Open the document from the downloaded folder.

                        

It will show as Viewing only, and a yellow bar will show at the top of the document where you need to select Enable Editing.

            

Then, choose Allow Editing option.

            

Now you can make the changes you need to this document and save it to your device.

            

While the document is being worked on offline, on the file in Thread this document will show a different icon with down pointing arrow as per image below.
            

To sync the document back to the file, select the document, and under the ellipsis (...) choose Check in option.

            

A pop-up window will open where you can select the document from your device and choose Open.

            

Your document will now sync all changes you made to it offline, and in the file it will show again with the standard Word document icon. You can continue working on the document from Thread.
