Use App without Connection
Hey Anonymous ,
when the app has no connection, you can load a previosuly visited report, but you cannot modify a filter/slicer. This is a current limitation of the app.
More about offline is explained in this article: View your data offline in the Power BI mobile apps - Power BI | Microsoft Docs
Thanks, Maya
You can freely switch between report pages but if you open "Transform data" (Power Query Editor) and try to alter anything in your queries it will give an error message. Additionally, if you try to refresh the data it will also throw an error. So if you are already done with preparing your data, you can almost freely work on the report!
Hope this answer solves your problem! If you need any additional help please tag me in your reply.

OK. When it has loaded, you can choose between the areas that are a problem, but then I cannot select any new "customers" in the filter because the values are no longer loaded for this purpose. Am I correct?
If you want to filter through Power Query then yes you are correct. If it is just adding a filter (or slicer) to the report then you have no problem! Also, if you want to upload "new customers" to your dataset it will also give an error. You can only do that online!

Gonçalo Geraldes- OK. What I forgot to mention, I need the offline version for the iPad.Could it be that this doesn't work with the Ipad?
