Home is closer than you think

Global satellite coverage keeps you connected when cellphones can’t.   With TracBack routing, you can always find your way back if you happen to get lost.
         
In an emergency, send an interactive SOS message to our coordination center.   Expand the capabilities of your inReach device by using the Garmin Explore app.
         
You can still connect to the ones who matter, even without cellphone coverage.   Stay on adventures longer with up to 14 days of battery life in 10-minute tracking mode.


 


Two-Way Messaging

Interactive SOS Alerts

Location Sharing
Exchange text messages with loved ones back home, post to social media, or communicate inReach to inReach in the field. In case of emergency, trigger an interactive SOS message to the Garmin IERCC, a 24/7 staffed emergency response coordination center. Share your location with loved ones back home at any time using your MapShare page or with your coordinates embedded in your messages.
     

Global Satellite Network

Flexible Satellite Airtime Plans

Compact Rugged Design
Instead of relying on cellphone coverage, your messages, SOS alerts and location tracking are transferred via the global Iridium satellite network. To access the Iridium network and communicate with your inReach Mini 2, an active satellite subscription is required. You can opt for an annual package or a flexible month-to-month plan. Don’t let the 4” x 2” size and 3.5 oz weight fool you. inReach Mini 2 is tough, durable, impact resistant (MIL-STD-810) and water-rated to IPX7.

Get accurate heading information - even when you’re not moving. The internal, rechargeable lithium battery gives you up to 14 days use at the default 10-minute tracking mode and up to 30 days with a 30-minute tracking interval.
