PHOTO SHARING
Share photos1 of your adventures when you pair the device with your compatible smartphone using the Garmin Messenger app. You can also view received photos2 right on your device’s color display.
SOS MESSAGING
Explore with peace of mind knowing you can send an interactive SOS message1 with your GPS coordinates to Garmin Response, our 24/7-staffed international coordination center, for help in an emergency. And, instead of relying on tower-based cellphone coverage, your messages are sent via the global Iridium satellite network.
LIVETRACK™ SHARING
With an active inReach satellite subscription, you can easily let friends or family follow your location while you’re on the move; no need to point your device directly toward the sky to find satellites. From your web-based LiveTrack page, they can see your progress, including distance, time and elevation.

Expert Insights
Many of the Gear Fool Team uses the inReach Mini 2 for maintaining communications with the "homestead" while we're in the backcountry. Our very own Brady Harang uses it yearly when commercial fishing in Alaska, and having that ability to communicate with him and so freely is priceless! This new version is certainly a "no-brainer" when it comes to communication, preparedness, and remote safety/SOS.
