Message Thread Generated in Earthmate App when Enabling MapShare

When the MapShare™ trip sharing page is enabled for the first time, a new message thread will be generated automatically in the Earthmate® app, as well as a compatible inReach® satellite communicator with the following prompt:

"To post to your MapShare page, reply to this message thread."

As the prompt indicates, replying to the message thread will upload messages to your MapShare page for friends and family to view.

NOTE: If MapShare is disabled on the Garmin Explore™ website the message thread will not be generated.
