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.

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.
