Some apps won't let you access any of your content without authenticating with their servers. So even if it's local content, not having an internet connection would deny access. I can envision CBP saying they need to crack your phone to get to the local stuff.

What apps do that, besides games?
local data can still be viewable if the device is imaged and the content is unencrypted.
