Governance as an app

  1. Step 1 · Install Governance
  2. Step 2 · A new version
  3. Step 3 · Without a connection

You can install Governance as an app on your computer or phone: in a window of its own, with its own icon and a quick start. The app keeps only the fixed parts of the screen; your data always stays on the server and is never stored on the device. There is nothing extra to install or manage.

Step 3 / 3

Without a connection

Governance works with the data on the server, so it needs a connection. When it drops, a notice at the bottom says changes wait until the connection is back. Open Governance without a connection and a page explains that; as soon as you are back online, it carries on by itself.

Without a connection · At the bottom: You are offline, with what that means.
Without a connection · The page You are offline, with Try again.
Without a connection · Back online: Governance carries on where you were.
