Using the inReach Remote on a Compatible Edge Device

When you have an inReach® satellite communicator paired to an Edge device, you will have an inReach Remote listed in the device's widget loop.¹ From this widget loop you will be able to do the following:

• Send an SOS message

  • NOTE: You should only use the SOS function in a real emergency situation.

• Send a Check-in/Preset message

  • NOTE: Check-in messages have replaced preset messages as of September 27th, 2022. inReach® accounts set up prior to this date will still have preset messages available, but any new accounts created after this date will use check-in messages.

  • Check-in/Preset messages are configured for the inReach product and set up through explore.garmin.com. Check-in/Preset messages have predefined text and recipients.

• Send a text message

• View the timer and distance traveled during an inReach tracking session.
