Which is for me? |
I’m primarily planning on using inReach on its own for emergencies, and I don’t plan to text or track much. |
I value the SOS but I also like to share my adventures and interact with family/friends. I’ll probably use inReach with an Android or PN-60w for text and location updates, more than tracking. |
I value the SOS but I also like to record my tracks and stats. I’m interested in using inReach as a personal tracker, either on its own, or paired with an Android or PN-60w to track my routes and stats. |
I am a power user. I want unlimited tracking and the ability to interact with friends/family often. I’ll probably use inReach with an Android or PN-60w for 2-way text messaging. |
