Photo and voice messages can also be shared during an SOS, giving response coordinators the ability to see and hear details of the emergency firsthand.

• Photo sharing: Show your adventures by sending a selfie from the summit or a photo of your view of the sunset.
• Voice messages: When a text isn't enough, use your voice to check in to tell friends and family they're missed or reassure them that you're safe by exchanging 30-second voice messages.
• Two-way group text messaging: Send text messages with up to 1,600 characters individually on the device, or use the Garmin Messenger app to exchange text messages, send emojis, react to messages or start a group chat.
