A close relation of mine got sick back country hiking and needed to text for someone to meet at a rendezous just this week using Garmin's texting services - I hope that this doesn't last long, I'd hate to think of what would happen if he'd tried to ask for help today.
Edit: Looks like Garmin 'Explore' is still up, so maybe it'd still be OK.

- 22fred 6y agoInReach messaging did NOT work for quite some time. wed mid day through late Friday no send or receive at all on ours. Fri evening it was sporadic send/receive - not all messages were going through to all parties. Saturday 25th it seems to be working correctly.
