'Pre-load' Power BI App on iPad

[Hayleysea]

Hi there,

I've had a question come up on whether there's a way to download/ pre-load a Power BI Dashboard app in the app on an iPad. Users have said they were in Power BI, went out to another app and came back and it was refreshing but want it to already be loaded when they switch between apps.

Any ideas greatly appreciated 🙂

Thanks, Hayley.

Hey @Hayleysea 

Have you checked if query caching is on for the dataset? That will keep the last results available in a report. It works in the web service so should work for mobile. Just a though link below to Microsoft info page

I don't think you can influence the browser cache behavior from inside the Power BI mobile app.  You should raise that as an idea.
