User questions & answers
Question: | How do they text or email you? Is the device assigned a phone number or email address |
Answer: | Hi! You will sign up for an email address where you can send and receive messages. |
Question: | I have an ipad without gps. can this device give location data to the ipad via bluetooth (similar way to e.g. the garmin glo) for my navionics charts |
Answer: | Yes, you would install the Earthmate app to the device and the GPS position will be transmitted to in when paired, from the GPS antenna of the Mini |
Question: | How long is the delay between texting back and forth with someone else |
Answer: | Unlike cell texting which uses a network of towers just waiting for your texts, the InReach is meant for use in areas there cell services is not available. In the wilderness, or far offshore. The InReach uses the Iridium network of satellites that circle the Earth from pole to pole about every hour and a half. So, at any place on Earth one or more satellites will pass by at various times and can transmit your message to a ground station to be passed on to anyone, anywhere via the Internet. The answer to your question depends on whether a satellite is passing overhead and if there is nothing to block your transmission to it. In a practical example, if you have lots of unobstructed sky messages will go from you to a satellite and on to the recipient in from two to twenty minutes. The same applies for return messages back to you. Any less sky overhead just means that you might miss a satellite passing low on the horizon. Therefore, don’t think of the InReach as a fast communication device like cell phones. Think of it as the ONLY communication option where cell service is absent. Like in the mountains, on the ocean, or just over the hill in a dead cell area. |
Question: | Does this work as a stand-alone product, or, is a paired device required |
Answer: | Yes, it can work as a stand alone product, but you do need a subscription to use the text services. It works way better with a phone if you need to send custom messages, but for the basic 3 pre set up text messages you can customize on their web site after getting the subscription it's easy to do just on the device itself. Typing out a custom message with just the up and down arrows is very time consuming. |

Likewise, automatic monitoring provided by the SE-SAR service enables the system to identify potential flight emergency situations and/or signals to promptly initiate search and rescue procedures for your aircraft.
Includes Unlimited Cloud Storage and Trip Planning
Every inReach device comes with free access to the cloud-powered Garmin Explore website to plan your trips with routes and waypoints, create preset messages and quick texts, sync and manage your device settings, update your firmware, link your social media accounts, store all your location tracking data and much more.

It connects for messaging via the global Iridium satellite network. You don’t have to worry about being within range of a cell tower or encountering spotty coverage. Your inReach Mini works anywhere.
Who will answer your SOS? GEOS will
GEOS is a world leader in emergency response solutions and monitoring. They’ve supported rescues in more than 140 countries, saving many lives in the process. And they’re standing by 24/7 to respond to your SOS, track your device and notify the proper contacts and emergency responders in your area. Once you’ve triggered a distress signal, you can expect a delivery confirmation that help is on the way and be continually updated on the status of your response team.
Multiple Ways to Connect
Wireless unit-to-unit connectivity lets you remotely control inReach Mini to send and receive messages using compatible Garmin handhelds, wearables or other mobile devices (See Garmin/ble for compatibility). GPS-based location tracking lets you share your whereabouts with those at home or out in the field. You can also post your adventures on social media. For basic navigation, there’s an electronic compass that shows bearing and distance along a route or to a waypoint.
Pair with Your Mobile Device
For even more capability and convenience, the free Earthmate app syncs your inReach handheld via Bluetooth wireless technology with your compatible Apple or Android device so you can access unlimited maps, aerial imagery and U.S. NOAA charts. Plus, Earthmate allows you to conveniently use all of the inReach features on your paired mobile device. For easier messaging, you can also access your phone’s contact list from the Earthmate app to connect with fewer keystrokes.
Get Weather on the Go
The optional inReach weather forecast service provides detailed updates directly to your inReach Mini or compatible device paired with the Earthmate app, so you’ll know what conditions to expect en route. Basic and premium weather packages are offered. And you can request weather forecasts for your current location or any other waypoint or destination on your itinerary.
Rugged, Robust inReach
Tough, durable, impact resistant (MIL-STD-810F) and water-rated to IPX7, inReach Mini is built to keep you up and running. It includes an internal, rechargeable lithium battery for up to 50 hours’ use at the default 10-minute tracking mode and up to 20 days in power saving mode.
