The iPhone 14 satellite Emergency SOS connects you to 911 directly through satellites when you have no cell signal. I compare it to the Garmin inReach after a month of backcountry testing with both. The iPhone works without overthinking coverage and includes car crash detection and Apple Watch integration. The inReach offers two-way messaging, custom contacts, and tracking features the iPhone lacks. Both have tradeoffs in functionality, subscription costs, and who they're built for. I walk through real-world use cases, show how each device handles an emergency, and recommend which option fits different backcountry users.
