The small, rugged inReach® Messenger Plus is an SOS satellite communicator (satellite subscription required) with text, photo and voice messaging even when your adventure takes you outside of cellular cover so you can keep in touch with friends and family with global two-way messaging. It withstands extreme temperatures and the battery lasts for weeks. Pair it with a compatible smartphone and the Garmin Messenger App for group messaging and more, send an interactive SOS to the Garmin coordination centre in the case of an emergency and even recharge your phone with its rechargeable battery. The battery provides up to 25 days of life in 10-minute tracking mode.

Features

  • Compact, tough, durable, impact-resistant and water-rated to IPX7
  • GPS accuracy: the built-in antenna automatically acquires satellites to update your latitude and longitude positions; no need to point your device directly towards the sky to find satellites
  • Exchange texts, photos and 30-second voice messages without mobile phone service (requires pairing with the Garmin Messenger app on your compatible smartphone)
  • Pair with the Garmin Messenger™ Smartphone App on your compatible smartphone for group messaging and more
  • Trigger an interactive SOS message to Garmin Response™, Garmin's 24/7-staffed international coordination centre. Instead of relying on tower-based mobile phone coverage, your messages are sent via the 100% global iridium satellite network
  • Use the screen to confirm that messages have been sent, send messages and read responses, even when your phone battery dies
  • Send simple check-in messages that do not count toward your allotted text messages (Satellite subscription required)
  • 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
  • Seamless connection: use Wi-Fi® wireless technology or the cellular connection of your smartphone to send messages. Once you're beyond mobile phone service or Wi-Fi connection, the device seamlessly switches to the satellite network
  • Group messaging: use your smartphone and the Garmin Messenger app to send group messages
  • Use the Garmin Explore™ App to share your GPS location with Live Track. You can also embed your GPS coordinates with your text, photo or voice messages.
  • Activate your inReach subscription to send texts, photos, voice messages or an interactive SOS message with your device enabled with inReach satellite technology. Subscription plans also enable you to check the weather when off-grid or send tracking updates to friends and family at home.
