Pair your inReach® satellite communication device with the Earthmate® app to get all the features you need to send and receive text messages, navigate and stay connected during your outdoor adventures. It’s perfect for planning, tracking and sharing your trip anywhere around the globe.
This Garmin application lets you access¹:
• Unlimited topographic maps that you can cache on your device and store for offline use, including topographic maps and quad sheets
• Aerial imagery
• Hybrid maps
• Waypoints and route navigation
• Tracking and location sharing
• High-detail GPS trip logging
• Unlimited cloud storage of routes, waypoints and tracks
• Online trip planning
• Control and access all the features of your inReach device from the app: send 2-way custom or preset text and email messages, trigger an SOS from anywhere in the world, track your location and more
By pairing your mobile device (via Bluetooth® technology) with inReach, the Earthmate app turns your mobile device into a true satellite communication, GPS navigation and safety tool. To access the 100% global Iridium® satellite network for live tracking and messaging – including SOS capabilities – from the Earthmate app, an inReach device with active satellite subscription is required.
You can plan your adventures from your account on the Garmin Explore™ website, wirelessly sync them to your smartphone or tablet, and then save all your trip data and maps with unlimited cloud storage.
With the use of the LiveTrack™ feature, loved ones can follow your location in real time² and see data such as distance, time and elevation.

Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life. Don't forget to stop tracking.
¹Access varies by model.
²When used with your compatible smartphone and the Earthmate® app or when used with your compatible inReach-enabled Garmin device.
Earthmate Negative Reviews
No Aerial Maps for CanadaGarmin advertises the app and inreach to have the ability to download Aerial maps. This is not the case for Canada. False advertising if you ask me.ForealBorealVersion: 2.8.2
App is pathetically outdatedGarmin does not care about creating safety related products. If so, they would do more than the bare minimum which is this app.Fugees_69Version: 2.9.0
JeffThe Earthmate app keeps telling me I don’t have an active subscription but doesn’t allow me to set on up…igor633333.Igor633333Version: 2.11.1
Numerous ongoing issuesI have had several different Inreach and they mostly work but are time consuming with endless technical glitches that consume your time..LordarenVersion: 2.10
EarthmateClumsy & poor as a navigation aid..Sarah's iTunes AccountVersion: 2.9.1
GilThe topo map is pretty much useless.Gilby1954Version: 2.9.0
Complete letdownIve had this app for 2 years now and its an embarrassment to Garmin i chose the inreach mini specifically to use with my phone an ipad but its a complete joke there is ZERO back road maps they are insanely slow to just update this app and after 2 years they have expanded its capabilities zero percent ya texting works but i was hoping to have more then a fancy txting device considering Garmins background they have forced me too seek out other apps for mapping the whole situation seems completely ridiculous considering where technology is now days..CrowbarchainsawVersion: 2.9.0
Preset messagesDon't understand why preset messages can't be edited and sent via this app. Ideally, I hope this app can do thinks the same with via the web..Jay20190930Version: 2.8.6
Dark mode... seriouslyFor the price we pay for the monthly subscription, I would expect minimum testing of the app on iOS 13 in dark mode. First, the login prompt is white text on white background. Second, try to read your message on the map. Again white text on white background. The inReach service is useful but this app is really bad. Also devs should add support for the Apple Watch. This is a good use case where you want to check messages without having to use the phone or go on the device itself. This app deserves more love from the devs..JackmicroVersion: 2.8.4
Great other than wind speed in knotsApp works well with my inReach Mini. Please provide an option to choose how windspeed is displayed in this app. It is displaying in knots as opposed to miles or kilometres per hour. When I view the windspeed on the inReach device itself it properly shows kilometres or miles per hour for windspeed..HsorkoVersion: 2.8.3
Poor maps - Bluetooth not reliableI have an Inreach Explorer +. The device performance is as advertised, and I’m satisfied. However, the Iphone app EARTHMATE is not reliable for communication between my Iphone 7 and my Explorer+. After several months of testing the app, I can say that coupling works only once out of ten trials.
Topographic maps are also for all practical purpose not usable. I use the device in northern Quebec. Small lakes and pounds are not visible on the map. I still have to carry my old Garmin GPS with good Topographic maps on excursions, and use the Explorer+ only for satellite communication purpose.
Unless better maps are available in the future, I do not recommend the Explorer+. The basic Explorer (yellow body) or the Inreach Mini will do the same functions, without the maps, that are anyway not usable for serious users..Marc PotvinVersion: 2.8.1
No aerial maps available for downloadDisappointed. Only the most basic topo map is available in this app for my area. I would need the Aerial or at least hybrid of some kind showing trails and cut lines for this to be useful.JackfishcamperVersion: 2.7.2
Garbage, isn’t optimized for iPhone XGarbage.Punty1984Version: 2.6.1
Garbage AppThis App is Garbage. It crashed my iPad since installation.Do not buy it.Jac vd ValkVersion: 2.0.2
Maps need improvingLove the capabilities of the Delorme inreach. But the maps in the app are useless. There needs to be a true topo map or integrated into google maps. The ones on the app are brutal and waste of time.Swe5474Version: 1.7.2
