Garmin inReach® Messenger

HOME IS CLOSER THAN YOU THINK

If you’re venturing off the grid, this small, rugged SOS satellite communicator1 goes beyond the limits of cellular networks to keep friends and family in reach with two-way text messaging.

• INTERACTIVE SOS ALERTS - Explore with peace of mind knowing you can trigger an interactive SOS message to the Garmin Response center, a 24/7-staffed international coordination center for help in an emergency.
• ON-DEVICE DISPLAY - Use the screen to confirm that messages have been sent, send messages and read responses, even when your phone battery dies.

• LIVETRACK™ FEATURE - Loved ones can follow your location in real time2 and see data such as distance, time and elevation.
