Reviews of Garmin Messenger™

Leave a Review Garmin Messenger™
  • Accounts

    Impossible to change my account with this app.
  • Old app was better

    Liked the old app better when you could send messages to phone numbers and the recipient didn’t have to be on the messenger app
  • Cannot delete messages on watch

    For those who do not know, if you have your Garmin watch linked to your InReach via the Messenger app, you will not be able to delete any messages from your watch. It does not matter if you delete them from your phone, the Explore website, or even the InReach itself, those messages are on your watch for good. It’s lazy design that is unacceptable for a paid subscription service. It’s also very inconvenient!! Anytime I use my InReach, in the back of my mind I’m thinking “well, there went some storage that could be used for maps”. It also makes searching for and responding to current conversations very difficult, because you have to sift through all the garbage you do not want and that you have already deleted off your phone. I know this was a rant, but the current user interface really takes away from any positive experience.
