Earthmate

If you are Android owner,you now can download Earthmate for free from Google Play. The application is designed for use in English language. It weighs in at only 10MB to download. The new Earthmate app version 1.6.13595 has been updated on 2014-11-18. For ensuring consistency with the device you should take into account the following app compatibility information: 2.1 and up

I recorded a track but the app does not have an export to GPX option When doing sync method with Garmin s portal Earthmate app is not uploading the recorded tracks neither So no way to use my tracking log Really I can get better capabilities from my phone s GPS using free apps than using this Garmin s version of Earthmate Have you tried Garmin chat support Only to get a retrieving config message Perhaps InReach should have remained at DeLorme     Gian Paolo Sanino V.

This app is horrible i Consistently have to close the app then reopen it to get the msgs to confirm there sent along with getting received msgs in the app they come to the device fine just not the app i also have to constantly hit send anyway cause it says there no gps fix and the marine weather forecast doesnt work and i am in middle of the ocean I have tried 3 new devices garmin has sent me and i have also unintalled and installed the app multiple times         Jacob Beuk

app works but it is not the easiest to use needs to provide more detail about status of satalite connection so not wondering about connection issues and delays love being able to text when offshore so I ll accept the imperfection it is still a fantastic service just needs a better front end map share is less intuitive on the mini and the app could handle that feature better                 Jeff Keahey

Earthmate management of Contacts is very poor First the app urges the user to keep the contact list small to save space make it easier to manage but then it continually badgers you to sync with your Contacts I have thousands of Contacts and only care to interact with a half dozen Once you sync with contacts there s no way to clean out or tag them in the app to segregate Furthermore I entered contacts in the desktop web app and did a sync and they do not appear in the Earthmate app         Jeff Maurer

Unable to download maps to my phone though I have space Download starts then stalls Despite that I was able to create route u0026 waypoints online sync u0026 then use my phone to see rudimentary route u0026 when I was nearing the waypoints I was able to add a waypoint in route from my phone Though messages typed using the app did sync to garmin they didn t all send from the garmin Which is likely a garmin issue         Melissa Haydek

Used this on the PCT Pretty sure developers have never been in the field with this app because the Bluetooth connection to the in reach mini consistently failed Pretty much had to re pair devices it each time I needed to use it     kevin rogers

The app just barely works Mph tracking is off by hundreds of miles per hour The app attempts to resend already sent messages Which is a big scam considering how much InReach subscriptions are I am seriously displeased with the quality of this app especially when considering the cost the cost of the InReach devices         Craig

Honestly one of the clunkiest app experiences I ve ever had The hardware is great but Garmin really doesnt follow through on mobile and web apps The app can t do basic filtering of tracks and waypoints menus are unintuitive with basic functions hidden behind multiple clicks and syncing is inconsistent between device web mobile Two stars because ultimately I CAN download maps see where I am send messages and get weather fairly easily Everything else is just really shaky         Andrew

doesn t always transfer messages from in reach to phone or will do part of them but leave a couple out I m a marine biologist use mine in the Bering sea for regular communication it will randomly skip transfering messages here and there The garmin receives them they just wont make it to the phone all the time overall though great much better than trying to type on my in reach                 Ryan Paul

This thing use to work great until Garmin took over Now I rarely get my messages to sync with my phone app Great device but poor app     John Smith

doesn t sync all messages from mini doesnt support copy paste i cant send a message to my group because the empty text is 218 words used out of 160 its EMPTY there are no letters As with most garmin software always a problem this is not acceptable for InReach users we dont have the luxury of cell or wifi coverage update downgraded to one star you cant solicit any tech support via inreach email and if you need to make account changes you need an internet connection     Phil Polizzo

Works well Used many times while hiking and even driving off road Maps have been accurate and helpful when exploring parks or wilderness areas We use the in conjunction with a Bluetooth attached inreach device Battery life of phone and sat device has been acceptable Really like the elevation accuracy too We ve used this in Canada US and Central America Used on land water and in rhe air                     S Winckelman

This Ap is just okay It loses connection to my InReach and frequently fails go get messages on my InReach Oh on my trips they are usually in the same 20 x40 space         Russ Fritsch

The only reason to use it is to connect to an inReach device Other mapping apps are much better The fact that the map blanks on zoom rather then prompting you to download the higher magnification tiles makes the app very hard to use         Mark Monroe

Right out of the gate it s telling me I have no space to download the offline maps when I have tons of space Reinstalled app restarted phone the works No luck at all Never even got off the ground in the first place How frustrating     Tracy Houser

I cannot send messages from my phone usin Garmin InReach Message shows that sending is in progress and doesn t send it         Vladimir Well

I cannot use this with straight lines that is not our real world difficult to backtrack need desperate routing         Com viq

Needs a switch to allow the user to force the phone screen to stay on My LG V40 running 8 1 will only allow me to force the screen to stay on for a maximum of 10 minutes             Jack Bunce

Hi I am just giving my thoughts on the earthmate app I like it but it s not very detailed it needs some work not every place is on there just some places             new bad boy

Using my InReach SE with Huawei P20 lite This app works as it promises very fast connection between the device and phone Sync the Inreach device with my phone works fast Very satisfied with this app                     Christian 1992

Unable to download maps Maps are in queue indefinitely     Johnny Kasudluak

Unable to log in     Brendan Kapitzke

I m a river guide on the Colorado River through Cataract Canyon in the middle of Canyonlands National Park Who cares about if you can t synchronize your all contacts or if it s slow The fact that I can type an important message quickly and send it faster than that one letter at a time nonsense is paramount to me Great app Saves lives                     Keefe Doherty

very basic app you can send texts through you paired phone easy but it doesnt recieve on your paired ph 90 of the time does not have option of satellite maps     kevin semograd

i expected more from Garmin it isa good start but needs to be refined sync of msg is poor for one I like the Inreach you can do better         Jeff Brandt

This app used to be great Always planned my off roading prior to a trip on the website then sent it to my tablet For whatever reason it no longer works I continually hit the sync but I have no access to my waypoints or routes on the website Without routes and waypoints it is next to useless         neal westfall

This is a very disappointing app The communication functions are ok but navigation is terrible laughable maps for Australia and new Zealand completely worthless for any real nav and you can t create a route in the field this has to be done online on the website Both of these issues could be easily fixed lift your game Garmin         Andrew Mitchell

Still won t work HATE YOU GARMIN Can t connect the app to the internet Try to log in to my account but it says there is no internet check network connections Uninstall reinstall turn off turn on Won t work w cell data or wifi So here you go Garmin a review on the internet from the device that is not connected Get lost     thrivival adventures

this app really needa some TLC it used to be great but is going downhill fast public lands arent updating and what is updated is not showing the right color schemes for the type of public land please fix For an app that is made to pair with a 450 device this is really disappointing         Mike Fisher

I use InReach on solo backpacking packrafting u0026 bikepacking trips at request of spouse for security I check in once every 24 hrs u0026 she lets me take the trips Great compromise I don t link to phone but use InReach as standalone text machine to extend battery life I use Earthmate as standalone mapping app to determine public private lands                     Howard Snell

why garmin cannot remember my password and then blocking my account there is no menu allowing to change it when facing a difficulty I am seriously considering sending the inreach SE back as this device cannot work properly without being paired with a phone and especially the earthmate app bad very bad experience     A Google user

Utterly dismal Intstalled it on tablet tells me it is installed but no icon nothing in downloads and cant find it with search so where has it gone Installed it on phone but it wont recogise email address or pass word Cant even use it but if you wanted to make an app that is also anoying it would be harder to top this one Get your act together garmin FFS     Cameron Bennett

Garmin support is inscrutable as ever The app bombards me with notifications the battery level is low This is despite fresh fully charged batteries installed in the device Support says install new batteries             Matt Maxon

A necessary app to pair your phone to Garmin s Inreach SOS satellite GPS communicator The app has plenty of extras for the outdoors adventurer such as weather and maps built in so you have access once you re outside the cellular tower grid                     Bryan Sparrow

Makes my inreach much easier to use One issue my inreach often gets messages that never pop up on the app making it necessary for me to check both not good guys                 S Tolman

Great map and app for pairing with inreach Does not provide ELEVATION DATA which is very important when selecting a route Elevation data u003d 5 stars             Oso Hikes

Unable to download and install on Android Running Android version 9 Very disappointed     Saif Mo

Horrible App Incoming messages are not shown have to read on handheld lazy     Shannon Hicks

very nice because of the level of detail in the backwoods                     Walker G

It works but buggy syncing of messages             John Randolph
