Your ZOLEO provides messaging coverage that follows you! That’s because ZOLEO transmits messages via the Iridium satellite network when you’re beyond mobile coverage and via cellular and Wi-Fi when available.
ZOLEO is a joint venture between Beam Communications Australia and Road Post Canada, two major international players in satellite communications. They recognised a need for affordable global messaging connectivity plus a safety system, and so together they designed the ZOLEO Satellite Communicator.
Whether for connectivity, safety at work, travel to remote locations, or outdoor recreation, use ZOLEO™ to enjoy seamless global messaging at a price you can afford. Your ZOLEO works with your smartphone or tablet to provide truly seamless messaging that follows you out of mobile coverage and back again. It also includes added personal safety features you can count on worldwide and a dedicated SMS number and email address to make it easy for contacts to get in touch.
ZOLEO is the first messaging solution of its kind to be based on Iridium® Short Burst Data® (SBD®), cellular, and Wi-Fi® standards, providing users with a uniquely seamless messaging experience over the lowest-cost network available. A free smartphone app offers users a familiar text messaging experience with no training required. Personal safety features like check-in, hyper-local weather forecasts, and 24/7 world-wide SOS alerting provide extra peace of mind when venturing off-the-grid.
Compact and lightweight, the device offers over 200 hours of battery life, superior water resistance, and is dust- and shock-resistant, making ZOLEO a reliable messaging and personal safety companion for users under any conditions. Built-in SOS and check-in buttons can be used directly on the device or via the app. Compatible accessories enable ZOLEO to be worn on a belt or backpack or secured in a vehicle or vessel. The free ZOLEO app supports 2-way messaging, 2-way SOS alerting, obtaining weather forecasts, GPS location sharing, and more.
