# Which punch list solutions support mobile inspections at remote job sites without connectivity?

<p class="elv-tracking-normal elv-text-default elv-font-figtree elv-text-base elv-leading-base elv-font-normal" elv="true">Which <a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/categories/punch-list">punch list</a> solutions support mobile inspections at remote job sites without connectivity? This is one of those questions where the honest answer includes some real limitations, since a few reviewers describe exactly what breaks when the signal drops.</p><ul>
<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/planradar/reviews"><strong>PlanRadar</strong></a>: reviewers describe offline apps for iOS, Android, and Windows, though one reviewer specifically said offline mode could be more reliable in areas with weak signal, and syncing can be slow on larger projects.</li>
<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/filio/reviews"><strong>Filio</strong></a>: one reviewer was direct about this being a weak spot, describing the app as unreliable in the field, crashing often and sometimes losing photos when connectivity drops, to the point they started taking photos on their phone's own camera as a backup.</li>
<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/fieldwire-by-hilti/reviews"><strong>Fieldwire by Hilti</strong></a>: reviewers describe using it across a 1,200 mile fiber optic network build with users spread from Mississippi to South Dakota, crediting real-time mobile updates for keeping everyone aligned across those distances, though the review sample didn't specifically address true offline, no-signal conditions.</li>
</ul><p class="elv-tracking-normal elv-text-default elv-font-figtree elv-text-base elv-leading-base elv-font-normal" elv="true">For anyone who's actually run inspections at a site with genuinely no signal, not just spotty coverage: did any of these hold up, or did you end up falling back on paper as a backup regardless of what the app promised?</p>

&lt;p&gt;There&#39;s a fifteen minute test that answers this better than any review thread: put the tablet in airplane mode and run a full inspection cycle. Create ten items, attach photos to each, annotate a drawing, close two items out, then walk away, reconnect an hour later and count what survived. Whatever tool passes that drill on your actual device is the answer for your site, whatever the feature pages say.&lt;/p&gt;
