Garmin inReach® Messenger Plus

The Garmin inReach Messenger Plus takes satellite communication beyond traditional text messaging, giving you more ways to stay connected when your adventures take you outside mobile coverage.

Using the global Iridium® satellite network, Messenger Plus lets you exchange two-way text messages, share your location and access interactive SOS functionality from remote locations around the world. Pair it with the Garmin Messenger™ app on your compatible smartphone and you can go even further – exchanging photos and 30-second voice messages over satellite when Wi-Fi and mobile networks aren't available.

That means you can do more than simply tell someone you've reached camp safely. Send them a photo of where you are. Let them hear your voice. Share the view from the trail. Or provide valuable additional information if an emergency develops.

Say It. Show It. Share It.

Sometimes a text message doesn't tell the whole story.

With inReach Messenger Plus and the Garmin Messenger app, you can send and receive photos and voice messages via satellite, helping friends and family feel closer to the adventure even when you're hundreds or thousands of miles away.

Longer text messaging also gives you more room to communicate, with support for messages of up to 1,600 characters.

Whether you're checking in from a remote campsite, updating your family during an expedition or simply sharing an unforgettable moment from somewhere without mobile coverage, Messenger Plus gives you more ways to stay in touch.

Added Reassurance When It Matters Most

The enhanced messaging capabilities aren't just useful for sharing your adventures – they can also make a difference during an emergency.

Trigger an interactive SOS and communicate with Garmin Response℠, Garmin's 24/7 staffed international emergency response coordination centre.

With Messenger Plus, you can also exchange photo and voice messages during an SOS, helping you provide response coordinators with additional information about the situation around you.

A picture can show the terrain, an injury or changing conditions. A voice message can quickly communicate details that may be difficult to type.

When every piece of information matters, Messenger Plus gives you more ways to communicate it.

Seamless Communication On and Off the Grid

Pair Messenger Plus with the Garmin Messenger app and your messages can use Wi-Fi or mobile connectivity when available before switching to satellite connectivity when you head off-grid.

The result is one familiar messaging experience that can travel with you from everyday connectivity into remote areas.

You can exchange messages, communicate with groups, share your GPS location and keep friends and family updated on your progress without constantly worrying about which network you're using.

Built for the Adventure

Compact enough to fit in the palm of your hand, the inReach Messenger Plus is designed to go wherever your adventures take you.

Its IPX7 water rating helps it withstand demanding outdoor conditions, while its long-lasting rechargeable battery is designed for extended trips away from convenient charging.

And if your compatible smartphone runs out of power, Safety Charging allows Messenger Plus to provide enough emergency power to help you send a custom message through the Garmin Messenger app.

Whether you're hiking, camping, sailing, overlanding or heading on a remote expedition, it's a small device that can play a very big role in keeping you connected.

Go Further. Stay Closer.

The Garmin inReach Messenger Plus combines global satellite connectivity with richer, more personal communication.

Text. Photos. Voice. Location sharing. Interactive SOS.

All in a compact satellite communicator designed for the places where your smartphone alone can no longer keep you connected.
