I have chosen to keep a Google doc on device but it still won't load unless connected to the internet. Kinda defeats the purpose of having an 'on device' copy, no? Any way to actually a keep an editable copy on the device so it can be edited in case an internet connection isn't available?
 
So it seems it won't load (not even read-only) if the latest copy isn't downloaded. Surely this should be done automatically every time if 'Keep on device' is checked?
