How ZOLEO Works
How ZOLEO Works
Say Goodbye to Coverage Gaps!
The ZOLEO satellite communicator is extremely affordable, and perfect for anyone who wants to stay connected and secure when travelling beyond mobile coverage zones. Iridium® based and designed to withstand harsh conditions, the compact ZOLEO device connects via Bluetooth® with a free companion app on your own smartphone/tablet. The app offers a familiar interface for seamless global messaging to/from any SMS number, email address or another ZOLEO app user, and also supports two-way global SOS alerting, easy check-in, on-demand weather forecasts, location sharing and more.
Unlike other satellite messaging devices, ZOLEO includes a dedicated SMS number that can be shared with contacts, and only ZOLEO follows you in/out of mobile coverage. When you’re beyond mobile coverage, the ZOLEO device transmits messages via the Iridium® satellite network, the only network with coverage everywhere*. When you’re within mobile coverage, the free app seamlessly delivers messages via cellular and Wi-Fi®. You enjoy seamless message delivery whether you’re off-the-grid or back at home!

Rest assured in an emergency. When you trigger an SOS alert it is sent to the professional 24/7 emergency monitoring service that’s included with ZOLEO. You’ll know that your emergency alert and location coordinates were received and that help is being dispatched. And if your situation changes, your SOS can easily be canceled.
NOTE: ZOLEO also includes Medical Assist, a convenient 24/7 chat service for non-emergency medical advice
