HOME IS CLOSER THAN YOU THINK

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

 

You can still connect to the ones who matter, even when there’s no cellphone coverage.

Pair your inReach device with the Garmin Messenger™ app on your compatible smartphone to text via satellite or cellular networks.

Need emergency assistance? Send an interactive SOS to our coordination center.

When you need to be sure, the on-device display confirms that your message has been sent.

Use preset messages to easily check in with contacts as you travel.

Stay on your adventures longer with up to 28 days of battery life between recharges.

Stay in touch with global messaging.

TWO-WAY MESSAGING

A simple user interface through the Garmin Messenger app on your smartphone makes it easy to exchange text messages with loved ones via satellite or cellular networks.

SEAMLESS CONNECTION

Optimized inReach messaging uses a cellular connection of your smartphone when it’s available, then it seamlessly switches to a 100% global Iridium® satellite network when you go beyond available cellular coverage range.

GROUP MESSAGING

With the Garmin Messenger app, your inReach connection supports group message threading and distribution. So, you can share your adventures with multiple contacts simultaneously — and have group text chats with friends and family.

INTERACTIVE SOS ALERTS

In case of emergency, trigger an interactive SOS message to the Garmin IERCC, a 24/7-staffed emergency response coordination center.

LOCATION SHARING

Share your location with loved ones back home anytime by using your MapShare™ page or with your GPS coordinates embedded in your messages.

FLEXIBLE SATELLITE AIRTIME PLANS

To access the global Iridium network and communicate with your inReach Messenger device, an active satellite subscription (see below) is required. You can opt for an annual package or a flexible month-to-month plan.

inReach Subscription Costs

To access the Iridium network and communicate with your inReach Mini, an active satellite subscription is required. There are multiple plans and tiers available depending on your level of usage.

PERSONAL PLANS

For outdoor enthusiasts, adventure seekers, explorers, travelers and anyone who needs a global communications solution, an inReach device and satellite subscription can mean added preparedness and peace of mind when you need to stay connected. Choose Garmin's monthly Freedom plan or an annual plan to meet your airtime service needs.

  • Monthly Freedom plans are ideal for your next adventure or seasonal use, requiring only a 30-day commitment with the ability to suspend service when you don’t need it.
  • Annual plans are great for year-round use, with lower monthly cost and peace of mind that your inReach device is always ready to use.

PROFESSIONAL PLANS

Garmin offers an array of flexible inReach professional solutions that helps keep everyone on your team connected, safe, oriented and informed. Garmin's Professional Flex subscription plans offer three levels that meet the operational needs of your teams or organization, including the following:

  • All Flex plans are month to month and only require a 30-day commitment.
  • You can suspend service in the offseason or when staff is not deployed in the field.
  • You can move up or down a plan for free when your tracking or communication needs change.
  • Enhanced administration tools are available to manage devices, tracking and communications.
  • Advanced API provides access to messaging and tracking data.

All prices are subject to change. Prices are correct as of 28/09/2022 (inReach devices require satellite subscription activation to access the Iridium satellite network for live tracking and messaging functions, including SOS.)

All plans are billed monthly. Subscription plans listed above are for individual consumers only. Plans include applicable VAT. Additional charges apply to text messages, tracking points, and location pings exceeding selected plan limits. For Service Plans that include unlimited texting or tracking, message transmission speeds may be reduced following a period of heavy use. SOS message transmission speed will not be impacted. All annual plans are subject to $49 AUD activation fee. No charge applies to changing an annual plan.

Enrolment in Freedom plans is subject to a $54 AUD annual fee. Freedom plans’ minimum term is 30 days. New 30-day minimum applies to changed Freedom plans. No charge applies to changing a Freedom plan. Service can be suspended a month at a time at no charge. User retains access to inReach data stored on Garmin Explore portal while account is suspended.
