Description

Stay in touch with friends and family. Enjoy the security and connectivity of global messaging with the Garmin Messenger™ app. Pair with your compatible inReach® satellite communicator for fast, easy direct messaging and interactive SOS that’s not limited to cellphone coverage areas (active satellite subscription required). The app supports group messaging as well as photo and voice messaging when paired with a compatible Garmin device (1). Automatic switching between internet, cellular, and satellite networks gives you the best connectivity and efficiency for all your messaging. When you have connectivity, the app will work seamlessly even if your inReach device is turned off. Invite your friends and family to download the app to stay connected and keep the conversation going on and off the trail. With the use of the LiveTrack™ feature, loved ones can follow your location in real time (2) and see data such as distance, time and elevation.

    My InReach is connected to my phone & Messenger, but won’t connect to Garmin’s Earhmate App. Christ, can’t you make anything easy/functional?!

    The new app unpaired with my phone when I was in the wilderness and had no way to communicate. Luckily everything is OK but I will be canceling my subscriptions too dangerous to use this it is unreliable
  • Total mess

    While Garmin hardware is exceptional, their software ecosystem is a disaster. Multiple systems that are not communicating with each other and nothing is properly documented. And when you contact their customer support, it quickly becomes obvious that their staff is lost in that chaos as well.
  • Astonishingly bad

    Wow this app has deteriorated horribly. When you go to login, nothing is visible but two text boxes because whoever chose the color scheme clearly didn't actually look at it first. I can't edit the quick text recipients because when you open that page, it's just a white screen. Messages sent from the app are never delivered. I am seriously considering selling my Inreach and cancelling the subscription because what's the point of having it when it's unusable and my iphone can send sattelite messages now anyways?

    I thought I set up messenger correctly while I had cell service by test texting friends. Come to find out I can’t use it in field out of service. Apparently I have to go through email & take couple of steps to add all my contacts to messenger. This process should be more streamlined.

    Not intuitive to setup. I know what subscriptions I want, but can’t find where to sign up and give my money. I hope this thing is easier to use when I actually need it.
