## What is Web Offline?

-------------------------------
UPDATE: With full iOS 9 and iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus support!
-------------------------------

Web Offline lets you record websites and save them to your iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad for browsing without an internet connection.

And not just websites... Web Offline can store RSS feeds, podcasts, documents, spreadsheets, PDFs, multimedia files, images... pretty much anything that can be displayed by Mobile Safari.

Any page or file that you click on during recording will be recorded and saved during the caching process.

Or you can set up a web crawler snapshot and let it do all the recording. You can also re-run the caching process to get the most up to date data.

There's no need to create an account or register, we don't collect any personal information either.

Key features:
- Offline browsing: Store websites and multimedia and browse them without an internet connection or when abroad
- Web crawler: Just type in the URL of a website and how many levels deep you want it to be cached
- Search: Full-text search for all your stored websites
- Address bar history: No need to type the same address twice
- Landscape mode as well as Portrait mode when browsing stored websites or playing multimedia
- External display: Connect an external display to your device and browse on a large screen (4th gen. devices and newer)
- Fullscreen browsing: Browse stored websites in fullscreen
- Multimedia support: mp3, mp4, pdf, doc, xls, ppt, rtf, aiff, wav, m4a, m4b, m4p, mov, qt, m4v, png, jpg, gif, tiff, bmp, ...
- Online browsing: If you forget to store some pages, you can view them using your internet connection as well
- No-image caching: Enable or disable images for faster downloads
- Re-caching: Websites that are updated on a regular basis can be easily updated on your device as well... just re-run the caching process

Steps:
1) To record a new snapshot, navigate to the website and enable the recording mode. From that moment, every page/file you click on will be recorded.
2) Close the recorder and check your snapshot.
3) Run the caching process to download everything for offline browsing.
4) Browse the snapshot or use the full-text search to find the page you're looking for.

Supported languages: English, Czech

This app is rated 17+ because it allows unfiltered access to the internet.

Do you have any suggestions for improvements? We're interested in your comments (craftycrew.team@gmail.com).

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2017-12-05, version 3.0*

It hangs every time, after a few minutes browsing.

### 2/5 — It's ok but major feature missing

*2015-10-02, version 2.9*

I love that you can control depth, but it stays on the same site only.  I use news portal sites that often show a bunch of headlines from around the web (for example: reddit).  All the news articles that are linked are not crawled.  There should be an option that lets the crawler leave the current site (at least to the first level).

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2012-11-04, version 2.7.0*

Wow! I'm in Internet marketing and we have to be able to show our website to possible customers. When there's not wifi around, we use this app to demonstrate our website on our iPad. What we love most about it is that we can cache entire sites with the crawler option. One downside is that our site is very large and caching the entire site takes a long time, but that's not the apps fault that our site is large. I would recommended this app to anyone any day.

### 4/5 — Worth buying!

*2012-08-31, version 2.5.2*

It IS a good app. It does what you need, has two options for saving pages, and allows you to manage them well. Even caching 500 pages doesn't take more than 10 minutes at most, though the prospect of caching something at 3,000 pages (when I'd only need less than a quarter of those pages, but don't want to go through them by hand) discourages me from using the web crawler. However, I believe you can add/erase links before caching, so this may simply be laziness on my part.

I do have some suggestions, though.

we should have the option to only recache the new link, and not the whole thing.
1. If you add a link to a file that's already been cached, 

2. Would be nice to have folders for organization, although the search option negates this as being a necessity.

3. More description regarding the crawler option would be helpful. The sliding bar is nice, but text description would be useful clarification.

This app very occasionally glitches, but fixes itself after you pop in and out of it again. I haven't lost a single thing I've saved, though I have lost something I was in the middle of recording. Wasn't a big deal, just did it again. All in all, the best app for the job I've found, and it's reliable. Would recommend.

### 5/5 — Excellent!

*2012-05-31, version 2.5.2*

It works great. I used it to archive my website portfolio so I can show it to clients without wifi. I highly recommend it.

### 4/5 — Works great

*2012-05-04, version 2.5.1*

I bought this app because I needed to view an online portfolio offline. It worked great. The interface is not very intuitive. On your first project it is a little confusing. A walk through or step by step would be helpful. 

Basically you put in a URL, and the app does nothing. And then you have to edit it and hit the cache button and then it works great. 

We grabbed a Wordpress portfolio and it downloaded 400 or so files Ina few minutes. It loads just like it would Ina browser. 

Also when the snapshot is done being made the screen sort of hangs and you still have to hit cancel. It does not switch to finished.  So that is sort of confusing. 

Beyond those small gripes it is a great app. Just could use a little polishing.

### 2/5 — Requires WiFi?

*2011-04-11, version 1.3.4*

I just wanted to save a 20KB webpage for offline reading and I need a wifi connection. What a PITA. I don't even know if it works yet.

### 1/5 — Not so great

*2011-04-07, version 1.3.4*

Crashes when trying to recall the site you archive. Please improve.

### 3/5 — Not bad

*2011-03-25, version 1.3.4*

This Program is good but must contain the next update on the option to select download from the Web site and the only one without leaving him to several locations where it would cause the length of the download,
And In this case, I can give the program five stars

### 1/5 — So sad...

*2011-02-02, version 1.3.4*

It's so sad when an "offline" program can't even cache a simple page of text... It's even sadder when $.99 is WAY too much money for the time, aggravation, and disappointment!
