The Garmin inReach® Messenger is a compact, rugged, and reliable satellite SOS communicator that keeps you connected – even when there is no mobile signal. Perfect for sailing, offshore, expeditions, hunting, hiking, adventure travel, and as a safety backup on board.
With the inReach® Messenger, you can send and receive two-way text messages, share your location, and communicate securely via the global Iridium® satellite network. The device can be used standalone or paired with the Garmin Messenger™ app, where you can send group messages and communicate seamlessly – the app automatically switches between mobile network and satellite connection depending on coverage.
If the worst happens, you can trigger an interactive SOS alert directly to Garmin Response℠, a 24/7 staffed global emergency response center that coordinates rescue efforts and maintains contact with both you and your loved ones. You can also share your location via MapShare™ so your loved ones can always follow your trip.
The device is IPX7 waterproof, impact-resistant, designed for harsh environments, and provides up to 28 days of battery life – and can even be used as an emergency power bank for your smartphone. With TracBack®, you can navigate back along your route if you lose your way.
