Not impressed
on February 4, 2022
Posted by: JayJ
Was given this as a Christmas gift with the hopes of being able to communicate with home while out of bounds in the deep woods of Maine while snowmobiling. Perhaps it’s me but use ability is confusing at best even after paying for most expensive monthly fee.

I love this thing! Great to have an SOS!

Great for getting my exact Lang and Lat and also for sending my position to track my hikes and auto highway routes. Best thing is that I have an SOS I can use when hiking in places that don't have cell service. Great piece of mind!

Good battery life, but poor performance
on February 2, 2022
Posted by: MyKidsRReady
Okay So my Daughter camps alot in the sierras with her boyfriend, so I wanted her to have a way to let me know hows shes doing up there, So I watched this hiking guy rant and rave about the mini. So I bought one, I signed up for the service and fully charged it. My daughter and I tested sending the standard messages while at home in anaheim Ca. but when she got to her destination, the town of Cajon in the sierras it wouldnt work! It never could locate a GPS signal! Im just glad she wasnt headed to mount baldy like last time. Luckily her Garmin Phenix watch was able to send location info or I would never have known where she was! I bought this because it is supposed to use mutiple systems anywhere in the world,So dissapointed! I wanted to purchase several more for our GoBags if it had worked but now I will look for something else.

Love it!!

My husband purchased this device last year for my B-Day. We live in a dead zone for LTE/4G/5G or WIFI, outside of our property. The inReach is the perfect device to keep in touch with him as I go on my Runs/Walks outside our property.

Unreliable...
on February 1, 2022
Posted by: mountain goat
For an item that can mean the difference between life and death, this product should be considerably more reliable in its functioning. It worked fairly well (with vastly varying send and receive durations) below 14,000 feet but above that (on Aconcagua) it was random hit and miss. When it did work, it was quite awesome though!

Great device, feel much safer, needs tracking app
on January 31, 2022
Posted by: LittleWolfNP
We spend lots of time far away from cell signals and emergency assistance, but we feel much safer having our little red inReach GPS tracking device. The excellent breadcrumb feature is especially important. Number one on our wish list is a dedicated tracker app where any authorized person can easily track the device on a map.
