Syncing a Non-inReach Handheld With the Garmin Explore Website and App

The following handheld devices do not include inReach features, but are compatible with the Garmin Explore website and app:

  • GPSMAP 64s/sc/st/sx/csx
  • GPSMAP 65 series
  • GPSMAP 66s/sr/st
  • GPSMAP 86s/sc
  • Montana 700

Simply put, the Garmin Explore App1 acts as the go-between for the Garmin Explore Website2 and your handheld device. The app and website are used to create, manage and view recorded user data, such as waypoints, routes, and tracks.

When paired and connected, the device, website, and app regularly communicate with each other. When the app is synced, it sends and receives user data between the website and the device.

You may only ever use the app, but the website is the cloud storage for data synced from the device through the app.

Syncing With the Explore Website and App

First, you must pair your inReach device with the Garmin Explore App. For pairing instructions, see - Pairing the GPSMAP Series with a Phone or Tablet or Pairing the Montana 700 Series with a Phone or Tablet

When the Garmin Explore App is opened or refreshed, it automatically syncs between the Garmin Explore Website and the paired device. It can take a few moments for both to be completed.

However, syncs can also be performed manually with the steps below. Syncing manually can be useful for sharing newly created data or changes between the Garmin Explore App, Garmin Explore Website, and inReach device.

Important Notes:

  • Ensure you are logged in to the same account on the Garmin Explore App that you use on the Garmin Explore Website.
  • The paired mobile device needs a data connection to sync to and from the Garmin Explore Website.
  • To sync to and from the Garmin Explore App, the inReach device needs to be powered on and in range (about 10ft) of the paired mobile device.

Syncing Manually

  1. Open the Explore App
  2. Touch Devices
    Toolbar

  3. Touch sync arrows next to the name of your device
  4. Wait for the sync to complete

The Explore app will update the time of the last sync after the sync has completed.
