Proactively cache images/pictures/photos on mobile for offline use

Currently the mobile app has limited access to images when offline. We should adapt the mobile app so it proactively seeks & stores the image data for all images (including within Rich Footnotes) that reside in notes that have been changed within the past at least 6, maybe up to 12, months.

I could imagine that storing all bytes of all images in a 10k notes account could add up to gigabytes of space consumed, which could become an undesirable tradeoff. Thus my time-limited aspirations.

Bonus points if we can store bytes for videos too, at least those present in notes changed within the last 6 months.

Gotta say I've been happy with amplenote but it's pretty disappointing that locally saved pictures from my phone that were uploaded to a note can't be viewed when offline. I was planning on using this platform in areas I won't have cell service and learned the hard I can't view photos in the field. This would be a feature that would keep me subscribed to the service. Your support page "Working Offline in Amplenote" omits this feature not being available when offline.
