I’ve run into this a few times while working on projects. Even a few seconds of connection loss can cause serious issues. A lot of systems seem to assume the network is always available and always fast.

We’ve gotten used to try again later or pull to refresh, but very few apps are built to handle offline states gracefully. Sometimes I wonder if developers ever test outside their office WiFi.
