Travel Lighter, Communicate Smarter
Measuring just under 4” tall by 2” wide and weighing a mere 3.5 oz, inReach Mini is fit for exterior pack pockets or accessory loops. It connects for messaging via the 100% global Iridium satellite network. You don’t have to worry about being within range of a cell tower or encountering spotty coverage.

Who will answer your SOS? GEOS will.
GEOS is the world leader in emergency response solutions and monitoring. They’ve supported rescues in more than 140 countries, saving many lives in the process. And they’re standing by 24/7 to respond to your SOS, track your device and notify the proper contacts and emergency responders in your area. Once you’ve triggered a distress signal, you can expect a delivery confirmation that help is on the way and be continually updated on the status of your response team.

Multiple Ways to Connect
Wireless unit-to-unit connectivity lets you remotely control inReach Mini to send and receive messages using compatible Garmin handhelds, wearables or other mobile devices. GPS-based location tracking lets you share your whereabouts with those at home or out in the field. You can also post your adventures on social media. For basic navigation, there’s a compass that shows bearing and distance along a route or to a waypoint.

Pair with Your Mobile Device
For even more capability and convenience, the free Earthmate app syncs your inReach handheld via Bluetooth wireless technology with your compatible Apple or Android™ device so you can access unlimited maps, aerial imagery and U.S. NOAA charts. Plus, Earthmate allows you to conveniently use all of the inReach features on your paired mobile device. For easier messaging, you can also access your phone’s contact list from the Earthmate app to connect with fewer keystrokes.

Pair with Garmin Pilot
In the aviation world, inReach Mini becomes a valuable air communications link. When paired via Bluetooth to a compatible tablet or smartphone running the Garmin Pilot app, your inReach Mini makes it easy to send and receive text messages while in the cockpit — even from areas without cellular reception. The app pulls in your smart device’s contact lists, so access is simple and seamless. And since your inReach Mini is also a handheld GPS, Garmin Pilot can leverage its rock-solid position source to drive a georeferenced aircraft position symbol on your tablet’s moving map display. Also, for your followers on the ground, inReach Mini can provide tracking of your flight, using the web-based MapShare™ page created for your inReach account. You can also link via Facebook or Twitter.

Additional Aviation Services
Your inReach Mini is also a supported device for the Lockheed Martin Flight Services (LMFS) Adverse Condition Alerting Service (ACAS), Surveillance-Enhanced Search and Rescue (SE-SAR) and Enhanced Special Reporting Services (eSRS). If you register for ACAS information, alerts provided via LMFS prompt you to call for an abbreviated briefing to address any specific adverse condition situation that might affect your flight-planned routing. Likewise, automatic monitoring provided by the SE-SAR service enables the system to identify potential flight emergency situations and/or signals to promptly initiate search and rescue procedures for your aircraft.

Get Weather on the Go
The optional inReach weather forecast service provides detailed updates directly to your inReach Mini or compatible device paired with the Earthmate app, so you’ll know what conditions to expect en route. Basic and premium weather packages are offered. And you can request weather forecasts for your current location or any other waypoint or destination on your itinerary.

Rugged, Robust inReach
Tough, durable, impact resistant (MIL-STD-810F) and water-rated to IPX7, inReach Mini is built to keep you up and running. It includes an internal, rechargeable lithium battery for up to 5 days use at the default 10-minute tracking mode and up to 30 days in power saving mode. Recharge via the microUSB power cable or optional in-vehicle 12-V charger.

Flexible Satellite Airtime Plans - Monthly or Annual
To access the Iridium network and communicate with your inReach Mini, an active satellite subscription is required. Depending on your usage level, you can opt for an annual contract package or flexible month-to-month airtime plan.

Includes Unlimited Cloud Storage and Trip Planning
Every inReach device comes with free access to the cloud-powered Garmin Explore website to plan your trips with routes and waypoints, create preset messages and quick texts, sync and manage your device settings, update your firmware, link your social media accounts, store all your location tracking data and much more.

5 QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

  • Previously Asked Questions

  • Sunday, April 07, 2024

    Q: what is the range that these will cover?

    A: This uses the global Iridium satellite network which has worldwide coverage.  Although promising global coverage, Iridium complies with U.S. embargo restrictions. Prohibiting countries include: Afghanistan, China, Cuba, India, Iran, North Korea, Syria and Sudan. Each country is different and regulations may change without notice. Always check with the local Consulate or Customs offices for information.

    Q: Are these capable of texting back and forth to each other in a power grid failure scenario if I had 2 of them?

    A: Yes, Garmin inReach Mini 2 Satellite Communicators are capable of texting back and forth to each other in a power grid failure scenario, as long as you have an active satellite subscription for each device. Here''s how it works:
    Satellite Network: Unlike cell phones, which rely on terrestrial towers, inReach Mini 2 uses the Iridium satellite network, which provides 100% global coverage. This means that even if the power grid is down, your inReach devices will still be able to communicate with each other and send SOS messages.
    Two-way Messaging: Both devices have built-in messaging capabilities, allowing you to exchange text messages directly between them.

  • Monday, December 04, 2023

    Q: Assume it comes with battery charger. Anything else?

    A: It comes with a USB charging cable, a carabiner clip and the manual. 

  • Friday, November 17, 2023

    Q: Can the 2-way messaging work in South East Asia region, especially around Singapore and Malaysia?

    A: Yes, it does.  The inReach uses the Iridium network, which is composed of 66 low-angle satellites that cover the entire Earth and is pretty much the gold standard in satellite communications.

  • Thursday, October 13, 2022

    Q: can this be used to share my location while I am airborne to person on the ground to track my flight real time?

    A: Yes.
