DeLorme inReach.

The DeLorme inReach is the first affordable, two-way, satellite communications device ever. It’s about the size and weight of a smartphone, but much, much more durable: it’s waterproof, buoyant and impact-resistant. Use it alone, and it's a revolutionary survival device; pair it with a smartphone , and it's one of the most versatile devices you’ll ever meet.

Two-way SOS

So you know your cries in the dark aren’t just “cries in the dark.” Affordable, two-way, satellite communication has arrived at the ends of the earth — and everywhere in between. It’s the “two-way” feature of the Delorme inReach that is blazing new trail in the industry. Without it, you’re just pressing an SOS button and wondering if help will arrive. Two-way SOS means your messages will be confirmed upon delivery. You'll also have remote tracking and access to GEOS emergency services (at no extra charge).

Follow-Me/Find-Me Tracking and Location

“This way to the middle of nowhere.”

Bring family and friends with you, using Follow-Me/Find-Me Tracking and Location’s automatic location feature. Turn it on or off at a whim, and ensure that your route is known. Use it to aid rescuers, to make maps, to keep you connected to the world, or just to provide a measure of authenticity to your travel stories or adventures. People can even ping your inReach to find your latest location.

Two-way Messaging.

If you’re going off the grid, stay in touch with inReach.

Two-way communication becomes two-way texting when your inReach is paired with a smartphone. Now you can both send and receive messages — that means interactive SOS messages, text messages, emails, social network updates, etc., and full GPS navigation. In short, an affordable remote satellite connection that is no less than revolutionary.
