Can I send text messages with the SPOT Satellite GPS Messenger?

The SPOT Satellite GPS Messenger is primarily designed for sending short messages and alerts via satellite. Users can send predefined messages, including a help message, a check-in message, and a custom message to designated contacts. However, it is important to note that the device does not support sending free-form text messages like a traditional cell phone. Instead, the messages are limited to the options provided by the device, which are intended for emergency alerts and location sharing. The aim of the SPOT Satellite GPS Messenger is to inform others of your situation and whereabouts, especially in remote areas where cellular coverage may be lacking.
