Finally, Notion now works without an internet connection Ivan Mehta AM PDT · August 20, 2025 For years, one of the most annoying issues with using Notion was that you couldn’t get much done offline because of its cloud-first architecture. The company has finally solved that problem, adding support for an offline mode to its apps.
To absolutely nobody’s surprise, the company on Tuesday said in a post announcing the update that this is one of the most requested features from users.
So users can now finally view, edit and create notes without an internet connection across Notion’s desktop and mobile apps. The apps also let one download pages for offline access.
Once you are back online, the app will sync any changes you’ve made to documents. However, some blocks like embeds, forms, or buttons won’t work without an internet connection.
And if you’re subscribed to Notion’s Plus, Business or Enterprise plans, the app will automatically download your recently viewed and favorite pages.
Users can turn off automatic downloads or manage downloads through a new “Offline” menu in the settings panel.
Ivan Zhao, the company’s CEO, said in a thread on X that Notion couldn’t ship the feature all these years because the app uses a complex database to store different blocks, and the company had to build a conflict resolution mechanism to manage instances where multiple people make changes to a document while they’re offline.
