Problem Description

The README mentions that Open WebUI supports Progressive Web App (PWA) functionality for mobile devices, allowing users to access the platform offline via localhost. However, there is no information on how users can customize the cache settings for the PWA feature, such as adjusting cache expiration, clearing cached data, or customizing which assets are cached for offline use.

Desired Solution you'd like

Set up Open WebUI following the installation instructions in the README.
Access the platform on a mobile device via the PWA functionality.
Try to adjust cache settings or find any relevant configuration options in the documentation.

Alternatives Considered

Providing clear documentation on how to configure PWA cache settings would improve the offline experience for users, especially for those who need more control over their cached assets. This feature is especially important for scenarios where updates are frequent, and users need to manage how their devices store and access content offline.
