Garmin Explore: Your Ultimate Mobile Navigation Solution for Adventurers
For adventure seekers, explorers, and outdoor enthusiasts, the Garmin Explore ecosystem offers a comprehensive mobile navigation solution. With the ability to map, track, and navigate your trek from anywhere and unlimited cloud storage when paired with a compatible Garmin device¹, Garmin Explore is a must-have tool.
Advanced Trip Planning and Map Viewing
Garmin Explore provides a user-friendly interface for basic trip planning and map viewing. You can easily preload maps onto your device for offline use or utilize the mobile app to pair with a compatible Garmin GPS device via BLUETOOTH®² technology, enhancing your navigation experience even further.
Access Online Connectivity with Ease
With Garmin Explore, you gain free online access to an extensive range of additional capabilities. Downloading detailed topographic maps, color aerial imagery, and other navigation aids directly to your mobile device is effortless. These maps and navigation data can be accessed anytime, anywhere — even in remote areas with no cellphone towers or internet connections.
Simplify Data Management
Garmin Explore enables you to effortlessly review and edit waypoints, tracks, routes, and activities from your library. By organizing them into collections, you can keep all recorded data from a specific trip neatly in one place. Plan individual waypoints, tracks, and routes for each day of your journey and merge them into one comprehensive collection.
Your Mobile Cloud Connection for Seamless Access
The Garmin Explore app seamlessly sends and stores all your recorded waypoints, planned routes, GPS tracks, and Garmin activities in the cloud. This allows you to access and utilize the data on the Garmin Explore website for adventure planning or reviewing purposes. Synchronize your cloud-stored data effortlessly with a compatible Garmin device. A Garmin account is necessary to ensure your data is securely stored in the cloud. Your recorded activities (e.g., runs, walks, hikes) include essential data such as distance, pace, activity time, and location.
Enhanced Off-grid Capability with inReach® Technology
Leverage Garmin Explore in conjunction with your inReach enabled devices, like the GPSMAP® 66i navigator and satellite communicator, to transform your mobile device into an off-the-grid satellite companion. In case of emergencies, trigger an interactive SOS to the GEOS 24/7 emergency response team. Stay connected globally through two-way messaging and LiveTrack location tracking via the 100% global Iridium® satellite network. Access your phone’s contact list effortlessly for messaging and sharing convenience when connected.
