# Known Limitations

> Realistic expectations for field use.

## Network

* **Relay mission** LAN viewing requires same reachable Wi‑Fi — not cellular-only on the pilot device.
* **Live stream (WebRTC)** requires internet on the pilot device.
* Cloud sync, upload, and export wait for internet.
* Losing relay, remote live, or cloud sync does not always end the mission — paths are independent.

## Media

* Footage often uploads after the mission ends.
* Queued pilot-handoff footage must finish before final review.
* Manual browser MP4 upload requires internet before upload starts (no pre-queue).
* **Import mission** requires a signed-in, online browser and creates a closed post-flight record only.
* Offline packages only include media available at export time.

## AI

* **Local AI** depends on device, model file, and configuration — review auto-tags before relying on them.
* **Alpha AI** report drafts require officer review; resolve **Items Requiring Officer Review** before finalization.

## Workflow locks

* Supervisor approval makes the report permanent and locks timeline events and photos.
* Evidence sealing preserves custody hashes — it is not report approval.

## Browser

* Large offline ZIP exports work best in Chrome or Edge.
* Self-signed relay certificates require a one-time browser trust step on HTTPS Mission Overwatch.
