Creating a form and/or power app timesheet
RShehan through list permissions you could allow the end user to see only the entries they created and not the others.
"I am thinking some kind of power BI output for the end user view." No, I recommend you use Power Apps for the front end with the SharePoint list as the backend.
"Would each login be an individual list?" No, but each user would save the data to a new item in the list.
"Is there some kind of offline capability with SharePoint on a local device? The end users are mostly using a mobile device/cell phone." No, but there is with Power Apps, so if a user loses connection it would save the data to the local device and upload it when the connection is restored.
It shouldn't take too long to build if you have someone in your organisation who know Power Apps. If not there is naturally a learning curve, but as I said in my previous post there are many Power Apps timesheet how-to videos on YouTube. But I can build a quick app for you that will demonstrate what I'v been talking about.

Another update from this morning:
I have the structure, but now need to address some functions in the app itself. The app is limited to the prebuilt one from PowerApps itself, as follows:
And I am hoping to change the date and time selectors to a button that does a time stamp for the start and stop functions of the work and break times. Also, to be able to have an in app image panel to sign a name, like you would do for a post delivery etc.

RShehan it will be a couple of days until I can show you my solution as I've caught COVID and can only work for a few minutes at a time
