Say it, show it, share it with the inReach Messenger Plus SOS satellite communicator. Keep in touch with friends and family beyond cell service, and exchange two-way text messages with an active subscription (some jurisdictions regulate or prohibit the use of satellite communication devices). Connect your compatible smartphone, and tell them you miss them — or show them the view with voice recordings, photos and group messaging on the Garmin Messenger app. Explore with peace of mind knowing you can trigger an interactive SOS message to Garmin Response for 24/7 coordination of emergency assistance. Check in with friends and family by using preset phrases that do not count against your monthly allotted text messages, or send custom messages when you have more to say. You can also pair with your compatible Garmin watch or handheld device to control inReach device functions remotely, including texting, location sharing and triggering an SOS. Enjoy superior connectivity and cost-efficiency for all your communications with technology, which automatically switches between Wi-Fi connectivity, cellular or satellite communication. The rechargeable battery supports up to 25 days of use in 10-minute tracking mode — and provides safety charging to help restore a depleted phone.
