If you are offline, you can still go to My Albums and tap the button to show only offline albums. (And if you enable ARC’s offline mode in Settings, this button is enabled by default).
No, you can listen to downloaded albums for 14 days without any network connection. However, the phone needs to be able to make a license check with Roon servers once in 14 days. But this is a low-bandwidth check only.
However, there was a bug that caused older downloads not to play until you played them once while being online. I don’t know if this was fixed:
Not true, it works. (I just tried). However, you need to tell Siri to play something “in the Roon ARC app”. Otherwise it will try to use another app you may have installed, like the Qobuz app. After doing this several times, it should learn that you always want to use ARC, so you don’t have to repeat it forever.
