Can people track you with the inreach messanger as the could do with the mini2

Is there anything more that I can do with an inreach messanger than sending emergency messages? What do I want to do: Show a track of what I want to do, show where I'am on this track, and leave messages on certain points. All things you could do with the mini, but not with the messanger?

Garmin is so bad with clear software, why did the change everything that worked wlll with the mini2?
I asked the shop if I can trade my messenger with the mini2, because at this moment I think the messanger is a big step back.

The Messenger does not have the navigation capabilities of the Mini 2 so it does not support loading a course and showing your planned route on MapShare.

But for inReach functionality the device have the same features: SOS, tracking, weather and messaging. Messages can include a location. And others can view your tracking points via MapShare. And with both devices you can send messages to your MapShare page.

So if you need those navigation features, the Messenger is probably not the device for you.
