The Iridium Go!:
- Works with your preferred mobile device
- Avoids those dreaded roaming charges
- Is compatible with Android and Apple systems via dedicated Apps downloadable from the Google Play Store and the iStore as appropriate
- Connects up to 5 devices, so great for the travelling family and group expeditions as well as the lone traveller
Now you can make calls, send and receive texts and emails and keep in touch with friends and family via Twitter no matter where you are in the world. Please note that standard applications that require broadband network access are not supported for use with Iridium GO! Currently your connection will be limited to 2.4kbp/s so you won't be able to stream music or videos.
How it Works

Simply flip up the integrated antenna and the battery-powered unit connects quickly and automatically to the Iridium LEO satellite constellation to create an anywhere Wi-Fi hotspot within approximately a 30.5-meter (100 foot) radius.
Versatile
Iridium GO! supports a full range of global communications, including:
- Voice calls

Combining the best that both satellite and cellular phones offer, Iridium GO! is the first in a whole new category of personal satellite connectivity devices. It is also a powerful development platform optimized for Iridium partners to build applications.
