Garmin inReach Messenger (Preview)

For sake of sharing, sports digital device reviewer DC Rainmaker has an insightful take on Messenger. I wont post a link but the site is easy to find.

Would love to see Garmin give a timeline for when the Messenger App functionality will be available.

Sorry did not understand, is the Messenger App already compattible with InReach Mini 2 or a new firmware update will be coming?

[Breau]

The Messenger App is not current compatible with the InReach Mini 2. DC Rainmaker mentioned in his video that a forthcoming firmware update will add this functionality. I haven’t seen a ETA for the new functionality.

Sending a Message through the inReach MapShare
IMPORTANT

In order to send a message to an inReach through a MapShare page, the owner of the inReach account must have enabled MapShare for the inReach device and set the options of the MapShare so visitors are able to message the device.

Visit the MapShare page for the inReach device to be messaged.

Select the inReach device to be messaged.

Click Message.

In the Send Message window enter your e-mail address or phone number and message.

Click Send.

I really wish Garmin would offer some kind of trade-in program.  My InReach SE+ is still going strong, but it’s aging and I’m very interested in upgrading to the Garmin inReach Messenger.  Just a few bucks from a trade in would make the price tag of the Messenger more palatable.

The messenger app now works with both the Garmin mini 2 and the Garmin Messenger:)

Hey All,

Garmin and Zoleo made many changes to their devices and plans over the last year or two and many reviews online are out of date.  I pulled together a comparison here , FWIW
