    I notice that this has been an active suggestion for 5½ years, and 5 years since staff replied to it (and ignored it ever-since.) In that time, there are hundreds (if not thousands by now) of apps that are able to lose data connectivity, continue to function and store data and run with what it has locally, and then resume data send/receive when connectivity (either mobile or wi-fi) is restored without missing a beat of functionality. There is no need to end a session and create a new one once data is restored (making the user pay attention to connectivity state - which is dangerous for a driving app) and lose data from the previous session and/or start everything from scratch. Continuing to hide behind such an excuse - especially with the resources of google at their backs - is only a sign of poor programming skills and/or a lack of pride in product.
