Is it possible to build a native clover app that continues to function offline when the internet is disconnected? https://docs.clover.com/docs/paas-integration-options the question is if we use option 1, would the app work offline and also if it has access to orders, transactions, payments. etc., when internet is not working
Yes if you develop a native app that runs on Clover devices and uses Clover Payment Connector SDK for payments (if needed) and the Clover Android SDK to operate on orders, transactions, etc then you will have as much offline functionality as is available. Using the REST API from a native app is not recommended and won't work offline.
There are some limitations to offline functionality even for native apps using the aforementioned SDK, for example offline payments are subject to various processing and merchant rules such as transaction limits. In general most functionality does work offline but check SDK documention for details and it's recommended you develop on a Clover devkit to ensure expected behavior.
