Stay connected beyond cellular and get piece of mind with S.O.S. and GPS Locator SPOT X provides 2-way satellite messaging when you’re off the grid or beyond reliable cellular coverage. Connect SPOT X to your smart phone via Bluetooth wireless technology through the SPOT X app (Android or Apple) to access your contacts and communicate easily with family, friends, or directly with Search & Rescue services in a life-threatening or emergency situation. If preferred or when necessary, SPOT X can also be used as a standalone communication device (very handy if your cell phone battery is dead due to all the pictures you've been taking on your adventure)! SPOT X has its own dedicated U.S. mobile number (although this device is text only - no voice calls), so others can 2-way message you directly at any time. Although no one wants to find themselves in an emergency situation, just imagine the response time you'll save the Search and Rescue team when you can send your precise GPS location to them in advance (helping them eliminate the SEARCH in your Search and Rescue situation)! With your GPS provided satellite location, it's literally like being able to provide your exact street address to your local Fire/EMS or Police, even while you're miles off grid and way beyond cellular range (or even when you're in town but the cell towers are overloaded due to any number of natural disasters). S.O.S. Send an S.O.S. to the Texas based GEOS International Emergency Response Coordination Center 24x7x365, message back and forth about the nature of your emergency, transmit your GPS coordinates, and receive 2-way confirmation (and updates) from GEOS when help is on the way. No guessing about whether or not your message or S.O.S. got through, or when (and how) the rescuers will arrive! Message Exchange messages with any cell phone number via SMS or email address from virtually anywhere in the world. Message remote or lone employees through any cell phone number or email address from virtually anywhere in the world. SPOT My Account comes loaded with 14 predefined messages that can be further customized and synced to your SPOT X device. SPOT X App via Bluetooth Easily connect the SPOT X device to the SPOT X app (available in Android and Apple IOS versions) and have satellite connectivity at your fingertips . Tracking Set up tracking at 2½, 5, 10, 30 or 60 minute intervals to track in near real-time with SPOT’s easy-to-use SPOT Mapping interface. Check In Quickly and easily let everyone know you’re OK. Employees (or friends and family) can quickly and easily check in with you and you can provide them with status updates. Compass Built-in compass and programmable way-points to aid user off grid navigation. Spot S.O.V.
