Do you need a smart phone to use the messaging features? That could be a serious drawback. You cell phone might be broken or have no charge left in the batteries.
You are correct, that is why they designed Bivy with a simple check in button that will automatically send pre-canned messages with your location to your designated list of friends. Additionally, the SOS feature can be activated right from the Bivy also.
Yes, you can use the ResQLink anywhere in the world. We always recommend updating your registration with NOAA prior to traveling internationally or taking a big trip.
@@mahimahiaddictioncesargonz5445 If you purchased the beacon 2 years ago, you should have a few more years left on the battery. The Beacon Registration should be updated a minimum of every 2 years. You can do that online really quickly at www.beaconregistration.noaa.gov
Bivy actually has a new Price...$199.95 is the everyday price making it one of the most affordable 2 way satellite communicators on the market. When you activate the beacon you have to keep a subscription for 4 consecutive months of the Plus or Unlimited plan, and then you can go Month to month with no activation fees.
I love♥️ and trust👍 my ACR PLB! Take it every time I hike!

Any insight if the ACR ResQLink is registered in the US and I travel to a foreign country, will it still work outside the US?
