BlipSat turns your satellite messenger into a two-way information terminal. Out of cell range with a ZOLEO, Garmin inReach, Bivy Stick or Motorola Defy? Send a short request and get the answer back over satellite. No cell signal and no Wi-Fi needed in the field.

WHAT YOU CAN ASK

• Aviation weather: METAR and TAF reports with an optional plain-English decode, plus D-ATIS at supported airports.
• Weather radar: a radar picture for an airport or your position, drawn over an offline map, including a corridor along your direction of travel.
• Marine maps: wave, wind and barometric pressure forecasts for boaters and offshore travellers.
• Fire and smoke maps: where wildfires are burning and where smoke is drifting (US fire data), for a place you choose or along the Pacific Crest Trail and Appalachian Trail.
• Sports scores: live and final scores for the teams you follow.
• Stock quotes: quick prices on the symbols you follow.
• News: short headlines and summaries.
• Search: ask a question in plain language and get a concise, AI-assisted answer.

HOW IT WORKS

With an internet connection, the app sends your request straight to the BlipSat service and shows the reply in seconds. Off the grid, the same request goes out over your satellite messenger by Bluetooth, and the reply comes back the same way, automatically. Long answers are split to fit your device's message limit, and maps are packed so they cost as few satellite messages as possible.

BUILT FOR THE FIELD

• Works with ZOLEO, Garmin inReach, Bivy Stick and Motorola Defy satellite messengers.
• Picks the path for you: internet when you have it, satellite when you don't.
• Maps, airports and radar are drawn on the phone, with no data connection needed to display them.
• A clear message history of every request and reply.
• If part of a reply is lost in transit, ask for just the missing parts.

WHO IT'S FOR

Pilots, hikers, boaters and anyone who goes beyond cell coverage and still wants weather, radar, scores and answers on demand.
