inReach Features
Messaging, tracking, and SOS functions require an active satellite subscription. Always test your device before you use it outdoors.
Ensure you have a clear view of the sky when using the messaging, tracking, and SOS functions, because these features require satellite access to operate properly.
Some jurisdictions regulate or prohibit the use of satellite communications devices. It is the responsibility of the user to know and follow all applicable laws in the jurisdictions where the device is intended to be used.
To get the most out of your device, you should activate it. Activating the device allows you to use inReach® features, including messaging, SOS, tracking, and inReach Weather.
