Capabilities

How pilots use it

Text and SOS beyond cell service

Check in, reply with preset messages, share a GPS location, and trigger an interactive SOS on the global Iridium® network.

Confirm it on the device

The display shows that a message went out — and, in an emergency, that help is on the way — without relying only on the phone screen.

Pairs with the watch and the app

Use Garmin Messenger™ for longer threads, or message from a compatible D2 aviator watch. This is a communicator, not a panel radio.
