This just need to have the App on their phone. Multiple people can use the same device. If you mean can you text someone that is also in the back country with you and they are not close to you then yes, they would need their own device if they also didn't have a regular phone signal.Can this be used with someone else in your party? Does the second person need to have service to receive the text or do they need one as well
Thanks for sharing a good solution BigJ.After having it for a year the Zoleo is working great. We just leave it at the cabin. Anyone in the family can just link there app to it and send a text message just like normal. It does come from a different number so I do Id my self when texting. When hiking I just strap it to my pack and never miss a message.
I remember when I was 10 feet tall and bullet proof too………I remember what we did before phones, we hunted and had fun and didn’t worry about chit!
