Well, yes, sure. But this is all a bit of a tangent from the far more common issue of poor or no connections at game stores, conventions, and homes.

I love "cloud"-based tools and don't mind paying subscriptions for services and software. But anything important needs to have offline.

I run my business on G Suite. I have offline access to critical documents.

Other services I use include:

Evernote - I can use on or offline and on multiple platforms.

DnD Beyond - On iOS devices, all my rules, and adventure content is available offline. The character sheet will be after they've revamped the online version.

Apple Music

Podcasts (I just use the default one on the iPhone but afaik all the major podcast applications support downloading for offline consumption)

My task-management service

Actually, the more that I think about it, the harder it is to think of online services I use that DON'T have offline capabilities.

About the only thing that comes readily to mind for fully online is streaming video services like Amazon TV, HBO Now, Netflix, and Hulu.
