Garmin inReach FAQs

What is Garmin inReach?

Garmin inReach is a satellite communication device that allows users to send and receive messages, share their location, and trigger an SOS in case of emergency, even when outside of mobile coverage.

Do I need a subscription to use Garmin inReach?

Yes, a subscription is required for Garmin inReach devices to access satellite communication features, including messaging, SOS, and tracking.

Can I pause or suspend my inReach plan?

Garmin inReach plans can be suspended for just £4.99 per month. Plan suspensions take effect from the 1st of the month and require 48 hours' advance notice.

What is included in the Garmin inReach subscription?

Depending on the plan, features include:

Two-way text messaging via the Iridium satellite network
Location tracking and sharing
SOS emergency response (via GEOS)
Weather forecasts
Basic or unlimited preset messages
Voice notes and images (on inReach Messenger Plus only)

How do preset messages work, and are they unlimited?

Preset messages are pre-written messages you can send to specified contacts. Many plans allow unlimited preset messages but may limit custom two-way messaging.

How does the SOS feature work?

Pressing the SOS button will trigger an emergency response through the International Emergency Response Coordination Center (IERCC), which contacts local rescue services and provides two-way messaging.

Can I change the tracking interval on the device?

Yes, this can be updated on the device and the intervals available depend on the plan you are active on. Please note on some plans, the more track points you send overage charges may apply.

What happens if I exceed my message or tracking limit?

Additional messages beyond the plan’s limit may incur extra charges. Some plans have unlimited tracking and messages, while others have limits.

Can I use inReach outside my home country?

Yes! Garmin inReach works globally via the Iridium satellite network, but messaging costs remain the same regardless of location.

Does inReach work without a mobile signal?

Yes! Garmin inReach devices use satellite communication, making them fully functional in remote locations with no mobile signal.

Can I use inReach to call instead of text?

No, Garmin inReach does not support voice calls. It only allows text messaging and emergency SOS. However, the Garmin inReach Messenger Plus allows users to send and receive voice notes over satellite.

Does Garmin inReach require a separate SIM card?

No, inReach uses an internal satellite modem that works with Garmin's subscription plan. No SIM card is needed.

Are there any restrictions on where an inReach can be used?

Yes, we always advise to check with a country's embassy before travelling. You will not be allowed to travel into countries such as India, Cuba, North Korea and Burma amongst others with an inReach.
