Garmin Messenger™ Reviews

No verification code sent

HollisStar on

New Zealand

This app doesn’t work. No verification code sent to allow for verification therefore unable to complete set up. No very helpful for a communication app.

Rubbish

Garmin products are not user friendly at all there are too many apps and accounts . Try to sort it out

Vérification procédure

Beetlechick on

New Zealand

After downloading the app the verification process sends a code to SMS message. It isn’t instant and I almost gave up waiting. There’s a lag that doesn’t happen with other apps. Funny given the app is about Messaging.

Needs Edge compatibility!

Mongooseman on

New Zealand

This is a long-awaited option for us iOS users. Where it would really shine outside of InReach use, though, would be the ability to send messages from an Edge head unit while out on long rides.

No verification code!!!!

Feeling frustrated with this app. Bought an inreach mini 2 but can’t use with messenger as no verification code comes through. Not using vpn and in mobile data. You need to do better please. Have called Garmin but spent half hour on phone on hold then person who answered couldn’t solve issue either! What a waste of money.

Difficult to navigate

Can’t seem to restart my plan and reactive the live tracking. Menu doesn’t allow for these changes! Frustrating experience!

Unusable: validation sms never delivered.

calvin.giles on

New Zealand

App requires a valid phone number, but no sms arrives (never had a problem with the 30+ other services that validate with that number). Makes the app unusable.

Randomly makes you verify but doesn’t send you a text code.

Like the title says, so now I can’t message anyone and Garmin has bad customer support. The app simply won’t text me the code, and I was in the middle of a conversation.

Awesome

I really like this app

Doesn’t work

I am now convinced not to use this device for rescue. Certainly not bulletproof.
