Pairing Your Phone and Activating the Device
WARNING
Before you can use the inReach features of your device, including messaging, SOS, tracking, and inReach
Weather, you must have an active satellite subscription. Always test your device before you use it outdoors.
The inReach device works best when it is paired with the Garmin Messenger app. The app allows you to
compose and send messages using your phone, and to sync contacts and check-in messages with your device.
1Turn on the inReach device.
2Bring your compatible phone within 10m (33ft.) of your device.
3From the app store on your phone, download the Garmin Messenger app, and follow the on-screen
instructions to complete the pairing process.
4Follow the on-screen instructions to activate a subscription service plan.

4 Introduction
Garmin Messenger App
WARNING
Before you can use certain inReach features of the Garmin Messenger app, including SOS, tracking, and inReach
Weather, you must have an active satellite subscription and a connected inReach device. Always test the app
before you use it outdoors.
With an inReach subscription and a connected inReach device, you can use the Garmin Messenger app for
tracking, SOS, inReach Weather, and managing your service plan. You can also use the app to message other
inReach device users, as well as friends and family. The app works over both the Iridium satellite network
and the internet (using a wireless connection or cellular data on your phone). Messages sent using a wireless
connection or cellular data on your phone do not incur data charges or additional charges on your inReach
subscription. Messages received may incur charges if message delivery is attempted over both the Iridium
satellite network and the internet. Standard text messaging rates for your cellular data plan apply.
Without an inReach subscription, the app also provides a messaging experience for friends and family. Anyone
can download the app and connect their phone, allowing them to communicate with other app users over
the internet (no login is required). App users can also create group messaging threads with other SMS phone
numbers. New members added to the group message can download the app to see what others are saying.
Garmin Explore
The Garmin Explore website and app allow you to plan trips and use cloud storage for your waypoints, courses,
and collections. They offer advanced planning both online and offline, allowing you to share and sync data with
your compatible Garmin® device. You can use the app to download maps for offline access, and then navigate
anywhere without using your cellular service.
You can download the Garmin Explore app from the app store on your phone, or you can go to explore.garmin
.com.
Iridium Satellite Network
Your device requires a clear view of the sky to transmit messages and track points over the Iridium satellite
network. Without a clear view of the sky, your device attempts to send the information until it acquires satellite
signals.
TIP: For the best connection with satellites, place the device with the antenna pointed toward the sky.
Bluetooth Connected Features
Your device has several Bluetooth connected features for your compatible phone using the Garmin Explore and
Garmin Messenger apps.
Downloadable Features: View downloaded maps, such as aerial imagery and USGS quadrangle maps on your
phone in the Garmin Explore app. You should download maps and charts before going on your trip.
Sync: Both the Garmin Explore and Garmin Messenger apps can sync data with your device, such as plan
changes, contacts, and messages.
Messages: Both the Garmin Explore and Garmin Messenger apps allow you to read and write messages and
access the contacts list on your phone. Messages appear on both devices.
NOTE: You can have only one phone paired with your inReach device at a time.
Syncing inReach Data
After you make changes to your data, such as plan changes, contacts, or check-in messages, you must sync
your device using the app.
1Open the paired Garmin Messenger or Garmin Explore app.
2Wait while your data syncs.
TIP: You can check the connection status on the Device tab in the app.

2Select Service Plan > Test Service.
3Press OK.
4Select Begin Test.
Wait while the device sends a test message. When you receive a confirmation message, your device is ready
