The Garmin inReach is a palm-sized satellite communicator that sends two-way text messages, shares your location and triggers an interactive SOS over the Iridium network, so it works where cellphones do not. It pairs with the Garmin Explore app for messaging, maps and trip planning, and TracBack routing walks you back along your track if you get turned around. Battery life runs up to 14 days in 10-minute tracking mode, which is far longer than a phone's. It suits hikers, climbers, paddlers and backcountry travelers who go beyond coverage; against a satellite messenger like the Zoleo it adds on-device navigation and TracBack, while a satellite phone costs more to run and is bulkier.

Owners treat it as insurance for trips beyond coverage and praise the messaging and SOS reliability. Complaints center on the subscription cost and the fiddly on-device keyboard.
The Garmin inReach Mini 2 is a compact satellite communicator for use off the grid. Messages, SOS alerts and location tracking travel over the global Iridium satellite network instead of cellphone coverage. It measures about 4 x 2 inches and weighs 3.5 oz. It is impact resistant (MIL-STD-810) and water-rated to IPX7.
You can exchange text messages with loved ones, post to social media, or message from one inReach to another. In an emergency, you can send an interactive SOS to the Garmin IERCC, a 24/7 staffed emergency response coordination center. You can share your location through a MapShare page or with coordinates embedded in your messages. TracBack routing guides you back to your starting point the same way you came, and a digital compass gives heading information even when you are not moving.
The Garmin Explore website and mobile app let you plan trips, create preset messages and quick texts, and sync and manage device settings. They also provide navigation, waypoints, courses, activities, collections and topographical mapping. The inReach Weather Forecast Service gives updates for your current location, waypoints or destinations. You can also control the device remotely from compatible Garmin handhelds, wearables or other mobile devices. With the Garmin Pilot app, you can send and receive text messages from the cockpit. An active satellite subscription is required to use the Iridium network, with an annual package or a month-to-month plan.
