RIP Garmin Inreach … iPhones to allow satellite messages in ios18

It worked well for me. Put it satellite mode and leave it there and I could send and receive messages. Had to remember to turn satellite off when I got back to reception or it would stay in that mode.

What iPhone do you have?

So it doesn’t automatically switch to satellite? you have to go to settings and turn it on?
 
I have a 15. When I opened up texts while out of service it popped up a turn satellite messaging on button at the top of the screen. Hit that and it was in satellite mode. It would stay in it until I went into settings and turned it off.
