Garmin inReach Mini 3 Plus: Rugged Global Satellite Communicator with Touchscreen, SOS & LiveTrack

Stay connected off the grid with the Garmin inReach Mini 3 Plus, a lightweight satellite communicator that features a color touchscreen you can read in bright sun or dim light. It connects via the global Iridium network so you can reach beyond cell service when exploring remote trails, oceans, or high alpine passes. An active satellite subscription is required, and some jurisdictions regulate or prohibit satellite communication devices.

What you can do

• Exchange texts, voice messages, and photos by pairing the device with the Garmin Messenger app on your smartphone for messaging beyond cellular networks.
• Trigger an interactive SOS to Garmin Response 24/7 for emergency coordination, with location data shared to assist responders.
• Share LiveTrack location so friends and family can follow your progress in real time while you’re on the move.
• Check weather forecasts and receive weather reports for your destinations to help plan daily routes.

Durability and power

• Rugged design with a high‑resolution color touchscreen that stays readable in sun, rain, or cold, and an IP67 rating for water resistance.
• Internal rechargeable battery supports up to 350 hours with 10‑minute tracking, and about 95 hours in performance messaging mode.

In the field

LiveTrack helps your group stay informed as you navigate forests, canyons, or coastlines. You can plan trips, navigate routes, and log progress with the Garmin Explore app on a connected smartphone. For updates that include visuals, you can send photos once the device is paired with your phone.

Note: An active satellite subscription is required, and some jurisdictions regulate or prohibit satellite communication devices. Always check local rules before use. You don’t need to aim at the sky to receive global satellite reception, even in wooded or remote locations.
