💡 FAQ


How does the size of my Workspace impact the users within the Workspace?

Showell ensures that all of your content is accessible offline through the Showell Native Apps on Windows, iOS, and Android devices. Keep in mind that depending on the content in your Showell Workspace, it may take up a significant amount of storage on your users' devices. To manage this, you can utilize the 'Keep on Device' option, which allows you to select which content is downloaded to the device. To learn more about this feature, please refer to the 'Keep on Device' help center article.
