Description

I uploaded Photos in offline mode and then the app was completely closed(not running in the background) Later on, I Opened the app in Online mode the photos which I uploaded were not displayed in Online mode. But in the same scenario, I try not closing the app from the background it works perfectly well and photos get uploaded. Need some solution regarding when the app is closed from a background as well the photos should get uploaded.

Hi @saurabhmore thanks for opening the issue.

I uploaded Photos in offline mode

Could you clarify this statement - did you mean when the device if offline, you called Amplify.Storage.uploadFile API to upload a photo? And you were expecting this API call should set up a scheduled task that will be executed when device gets back online?

@HuiSF i have tried to add images in the offline mode :

Note : if we haven't closed the App and kept Idle in background it works fine

Thank you for the clarification @saurabhmore .

The Amplify Storage S3 plugin currently doesn't support any offline functionality, upload operations requires an active network connection.

Can you confirm this is what you are looking for?

As a developer, I want to be able to call the Amplify.Storage.uploadFile API regardless of the network condition of the device. If the device was offline when I called the API to upload a file, I expect the upload to go through when the device gets back online.

We may consider this as a feature request.
