LN hold invoices work pretty well.
Using Lightning for escrows would be the ideal, especially for low value items. Do you know any tool or wallet that allow users to manage such thing?

Valet ♦️ allows to "hold" incoming payments. There is CLN plugin too. Good one

We don't have VCs $$$ to maintain OS agnostic wallets. Besides, Valet ♦️ is only on FDroid due to Googles KYC policy.

How do you think it could work Lightning offline escrow?

ecash

This is not true. Ecash does need internet.
Basically, hosted channels could be transferred similarly to ecash, even Lightning channels. So idk imagine Valet ♦️ does that.
A LN node is required in this case. One could ideally practice with Polar. Then, when comfortable enough, install in an existing node @Alby Hub to manage multiple HODL invoices.
Not ideal for routing nodes though because Hold Invoices can take up significant transaction space, even those involving small amounts, and the Lightning protocol allows 483 concurrent HTLCs to conform with the standard transaction size.
Without an LN node, one could also use Robosats coordinators as escrow service, but both parties must already trust each other and sync to not allow others to take the offer.
