?Another app that I use on a regular basis in conjunction with my inReach is Orbit. If you select "Iridium" from the top left menu, it will show you whether an Iridium satellite, which the inReach needs to communicate, is currently within view from your location. (Credit to Backpacking Light's Ryan Jordan for this idea.)

?FYI,
There is a neat app I like to play with while out and about. It is called heavensabove. It is not religious. It grabs satellite data so that one can look up and see what objects are flying overhead in space. The web site is heavens-above.com. Been using this for over 15 years. Neat to get ISS passings, Tiangong passing and other stuff. They use to have Iridium satellite flare information, but that constellation is not up anymore.
This works world wide and the timing updates based on ones position; though hiking does not change position by that much.
