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. 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 anytime with your GPS coordinates to Garmin Response, a 24/7-staffed coordination center for help in an emergency. And, instead of relying on tower-based cellphone coverage, your messages are sent via the 100% global iridium satellite network. Plus, the durable design withstands extreme temperatures and the battery lasts for weeks.

Features:
