Awesome addition to my Adv Bike, no matter how far from home I am, my family is able to know my location.

The device is great, the subscription is lacking

The device is great the only gripe I have is with the subscription services. The mid tier plan is sub par and I cannot justify the price of the unlimited plan

Excellent little device!
on February 19, 2022

This little thing is packed with features but the most useful ones are never too far away. It’s pretty easy to use and gives me great peace of mind when I go out in the backcountry alone knowing that I can message my family or emergency services outside of cell coverage. It connects with my Garmin Instinct watch and that’s pretty neat. I love how portable the unit is. The only thing that I would change is I would integrate the Garmin Explore app that you get with their watches and the Earthmate app you get with the InReach mini and have one app that talks to both devices. Also puzzled that the Earthmate app doesn’t let you search for locations, you have to scroll to them on the map.

Bought this for snowmobiling in the back country to know where we are and be able to text if needed.

Nice little unit.

Have not had a lot of spart time to get to know it. Shawn from your tech support in Salem, Or was a great help to get my wife online to see where I was. Know there are a lot of features that I may learn. Am an old Spot 3 user but had some problems with the company and the spot 3 was pretty featurless and sometime not so good in the trees. Will have to see how the inreach mini does in the trees as soon as the snow is gone.

Give the home front peace of mind
on February 22, 2022

I travel frequently where there is absolutely no cell service. As such for hours I can be unreachable. Needless to say, the family worries a bit. SAT phones are "nice" but very costly to operate and unless you absolutely need to be in touch IMO not necessary.
The inReach Mini is a great compromise showing trip progress to whomever you give access at a reasonable monthly charge.
I would say that the documentation does need help. As a 40+ year IT Executive I found the "instructions" left a lot of room for improvement.

Awesome peace of mind

While the myriad combination of apps and website and cables to setup and sync the device are confusing as heck. Once setup, the device is an awesome little peace of mind to have while out in the backcountry. Highly recommend.
