SPOT Connect™

Instantly turn your smartphone into a satellite communications device. This simple, easy-to-connect device keeps you in touch with friends, family and emergency responders when you’re off the grid. It instantly links your mobile device to a satellite network that lets you send custom or pre-defined messages (additional service required) and GPS coordinates from almost any point on the globe. It also lets you update Twitter and Facebook, track your progress with Google Maps™ or SPOT Adventures, and send text messages and short emails. During noncritical emergencies, its messaging capability offers an easy way to request help from personal contacts or other professional service providers. During a critical emergency, this device can send a SOS message for emergency assistance from first responders (built-in SOS button for stand-alone emergency operation). Includes a smartphone app for easy operation and detailed status updates, and the app provides seamless integration with Facebook, Twitter and SPOTadventures.com. Runs on two AA Energizer Ultimate Lithium 8X (L91) batteries (not included).
