FEATURES

Text Messages: Use the keyboard on the touchscreen display to exchange text messages1 directly on the device. Or, connect your compatible smartphone to the Garmin Messenger™ app and exchange text messages, send emojis and reactions, or start a group chat.

SOS Messaging: Explore with peace of mind knowing you can send an interactive SOS message1 with your GPS coordinates to Garmin Response, our 24/7-staffed international coordination center, for help in an emergency. And, instead of relying on tower-based mobile phone coverage, your messages are sent via the global Iridium satellite network.

Livetrack™ Sharing: With an active inReach satellite subscription, you can easily let friends or family follow your location while you’re on the move; no need to point your device directly toward the sky to find satellites. They can see your progress, including distance, time and elevation.

Stay on Track: Use the Garmin Explore smartphone app to enhance your experience; plan your trip and follow your course to your destination and back.

Garmin Weather: Get weather reports and request forecasts for your destinations.

Tracback® Routing: Use this feature to navigate back to where you started the same way you came.

Check-In Messages: Send simple check-in messages that do not count toward your allotted text messages.

Seamless Connection: Use Wi-Fi wireless technology or the cellular connection of your smartphone to send messages. Once you’re beyond mobile service or Wi-Fi connection, the device seamlessly switches to the satellite network**.

Control Remotely: Send and receive text messages, or send an interactive SOS message remotely by connecting select compatible Garmin products.

GPS Accuracy: The built-in antenna automatically acquires satellites to update your latitude and longitude positions. You’ll get global satellite reception in wooded, dense and remote locations.

COMPATIBILITY

You can pair the inReach Mini 3 with the Descent series, but via Bluetooth at the surface only, not underwater. Garmin specifies that Descent dive computers (like Descent Mk2, Mk2i, G2, etc.) can connect to the Mini 3 when it's in a dive case rated to about 100 m. This pairing lets the dive computer trigger SOS, send/receive preset messages, request weather, and more at the surface.
