A pocket satellite communicator that works over the Iridium network, so it sends two-way SMS and email and shares GPS location where there is no cell signal. It adds an SOS beacon, weather updates, offline maps and a shareable breadcrumb trail through the Bivy app on iOS and Android. GroupTrack lets up to 12 people message and share locations, which suits hiking groups, remote work crews and emergency-preparedness kits. Against rivals like the Garmin inReach and Zoleo, it leans on app-based maps and group tracking rather than a built-in screen and keypad, and it requires a paid subscription with a three-month commitment.
