Is it really such a rare used/bought niche product?

    If you get an compressed photo via satellite and you arrive in an area with cell/wifi, the pic will get to a normal level/get better quality. Some interesting stuff is here:

    I am still not able to make some rational cleaning of the message storage on the device. I still have to go one by one, select, delete, really?,

    It is a litte bit burried and can be found: setting>system>reset> scroll to>delete all messages (unless someone accidentally resets his M+). Not a good place for this functionality, but it`s there.

    Pic:

    we tested pic sending via sat-sat, meaning both sides have no internet. In this case the pic was considerably compressed .

    I have the impression that even months after the release, very few people have bought an M+. The forum here is almost as popular as the Fenix ​​E and Instinct E forum...

    In my opinion, Garmin has achieved a real innovation with the new functionality of sending/receiving photos and voice messages via satellite. I think it's just great. It's just a shame that it doesn't seem to be well received(?). I really hope that we'll see this functionality (pics/voive messages via sat) in future iR devices. In my opinion, it would be desirable for the iR devices to have a snapshot camera and microphones and speakers integrated and for received photos to be able to be seen on the device display (albeit to a limited extent) so that the device can also be used completely independently of the phone. We'll see what comes in the future.
