Tell them you miss them. Show them the view. Share the experience. With an active inReach subscription, the trailblazing inReach Messenger Plus SOS satellite communicator1 lets you exchange text, photo and voice messages2 when your adventure takes you beyond cellular range. Plus the durable design withstands extreme temperatures and the battery lasts for weeks.
Exchange Photos
Send a selfie or share the sunset, no mobile signal required. This requires pairing with the Garmin Messenger app on your compatible smartphone.
Exchange Voice Messages
Tell them you miss them with a 30-second voice message, no cell coverage needed. This requires pairing with the Garmin Messenger app on your compatible smartphone.
Two-Way Text Messaging
Exchange text messages with up to 1,600 characters directly on the device. Connect your compatible smartphone to the Garmin Messenger app, and exchange text messages, send emojis, or start a group chat.
Interactive SOS
Explore with peace of mind knowing you can send an interactive SOS message with your GPS coordinates to Garmin Response, a 24/7-staffed international coordination centre for help in an emergency. And, instead of relying on tower-based mobile phone coverage, your messages are sent via the 100% global iridium satellite network.
Show Them Your Route
