Earthmate vs ShareSyncGo

Pair your inReach® satellite communication device with the Earthmate® app to get all the features you need to send and receive text messages, navigate and stay connected during your outdoor adventures. It’s perfect for planning, tracking and sharing your trip anywhere around the globe. This Garmin application lets you access¹: • Unlimited topographic maps that you can cache on your device and store for offline use, including topographic maps and quad sheets • Aerial imagery • Hybrid maps • Waypoints and route navigation • Tracking and location sharing • High-detail GPS trip logging • Unlimited cloud storage of routes, waypoints and tracks • Online trip planning • Control and access all the features of your inReach device from the app: send 2-way custom or preset text and email messages, trigger an SOS from anywhere in the world, track your location and more By pairing your mobile device (via Bluetooth® technology) with inReach, the Earthmate app turns your mobile device into a true satellite communication, GPS navigation and safety tool. To access the 100% global Iridium® satellite network for live tracking and messaging – including SOS capabilities – from the Earthmate app, an inReach device with active satellite subscription is required. You can plan your adventures from your account on the Garmin Explore™ website, wirelessly sync them to your smartphone or tablet, and then save all your trip data and maps with unlimited cloud storage. With the use of the LiveTrack™ feature, loved ones can follow your location in real time² and see data such as distance, time and elevation. Learn more about inReach devices and technology at www.garmin.com/inreach. Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life. Don't forget to stop tracking. ¹Access varies by model. ²When used with your compatible smartphone and the Earthmate® app or when used with your compatible inReach-enabled Garmin device.

ShareSyncGo draws a live breadcrumb trail of your walk or ride on your Garmin watch. Share an address from Apple Maps or Google Maps → straight to your Garmin, with turn arrows and the distance to the next maneuver layered on top. Your phone stays in your pocket. WHY SHARESYNCGO • Breadcrumb trail on the watch — see exactly where you have been. The path you walked or rode is drawn behind you, so you can retrace your steps or spot when you have drifted off-route at a glance. • Works with the watches you already own — Fenix, Forerunner, Edge, Venu, vívoactive, Instinct, Epix, and more (any Connect IQ device). • Share to start. Send an address from Maps, Google Maps → pick walk or bike → go. • Real turn-by-turn — not just a compass bearing. Arrows, street names, and the exact distance to the next turn. • Smart haptics. Customizable vibration patterns for turns, arrival, and session start/stop so you can keep your eyes up. HOW IT WORKS 1. Pair your Garmin watch with Garmin Connect Mobile. 2. Share a destination to ShareSyncGo from Apple Maps or Google Maps, or pick a place inside the app. 3. Choose walking or cycling and tap Start. 4. Follow the turns on your wrist. Your phone can stay locked.
