Nice size, app, texting, multiple web pages needed

I have had this device for a few years. I like the size. I also love the price for the subscriptions. Other than that it seems to struggle getting a good signal. Messages don't seem to work very well. There is also way to many websites involved to maximize this devices potential.

Great tracker, battery life could be a little more robust for long trips

Lost

Only had the mini in my possession for approximately a week. It was left on the bumper of my truck and lost while driving before I ever took it into the field. Luckily I still have my original Delorme inReach and reactivated it before heading into the backcountry. That mini sure was nice and compact/lightweight! I’m forced to leave a rating so I’ll give 4 stars on the size and weight alone since that was my main purpose for upgrading units

In Reach Indeed!!

I bought my mini for a Newfoundland moose hunt so I could keep my family up to date during the adventure. The ability to share the memories in real time was like they were there with me. I don’t say this lightly, the Garmin was the best piece of equipment I bought for the hunt. If I could give 10 stars I would.

Easy to use.

I used this on a few hunting trips and my wife was able to track my progress throughout the day. She was more comfortable knowing that I could summon help if necessary.

Simple & compact

I bought the unit while driving to Colorado to elk hunt, after only a few minutes I was set up and ready to go. Overall it worked perfect for the week I was in the mountains with no cell service. Easy to operate, the app is simple to use, it’s light weight and rugged. 5 stars for sure!!!

Second time out in the wild
on October 3, 2021
Posted by: AlexG
The connectivity is great and battery life is quite good if we manage the track settings and shut it off when indoors. However we got our battery drained the first night of a multi night backpacking trip while staying at a mountain refuge ( solid stone walls, tile roof, no view of the sky). It would be a good thing to implement an auto shutdown feature after a user-set timer without satellite signal.
