GETTING STARTED

Download the Bivy app for iOS from the

App Store or for Android from the Play

While in phone service or WiFi, turn on your Bivy Stick

by pressing the power button for 2 seconds. The power

indicator light will illuminate.

On the app menu, select “STICK.”

Select

Your Bivy Stick will now pair with your phone.

This will only take a few seconds. Once it is

connected you will see the battery life and

signal strength icon in the upper right corner

on the app.

Once your phone is connected to the Bivy Stick,

select

Follow the steps to activate your Bivy Stick. It will require

you to input emergency contact information and credit

card info. During this process you will also have the

opportunity to purchase a Global Rescue membership

for additional coverage in case of an emergency.

NOTE: SOS Monitoring and dispatch is a service provid-

ed by Global Rescue to all active Bivy Stick users as part

of your monthly service fee. A Global Rescue member-

ship provides additional services. More info about a

membership can be found here:

https://ss.globalrescue.com/partner/bivy/

um satellite network for 30 days. Even if you use all your

allotted credits, you can still continue to use the Stick at

the rate of $0.50 per overage credit.

USING THE APP

You can see the status of your Bivy Stick and account at

any time by using the app. On the HOME screen you can

see how many credits you have used and how many you

have remaining.

On the STICK screen, you will be able to see if your Stick

is active, when your active account renews or ends, and

your credit status. You can also navigate to many

features of Bivy Stick, including Messages, Weather, SOS,

and Check In message setup.

MESSAGING

Make sure you are connected to the Stick via Bluetooth.

Enter the Messages screen from the Stick page or by

tapping “MESSAGES” on the bottom menu.

The Bivy app will ask if you would like to sync your

contacts. This can take up to 5 minutes, depending on

how many contacts you have in your phone.

the open. It will not get a GPS lock if you are inside.

3. Status light:

The Status light can show several different colors:

Yellow = Message is being sent

Green = Message has been received

Blue = Currently tracking and sharing location

Red = SOS has been activated

sent to the phone yet. Make sure your phone is connected

to the Stick via Bluetooth and open the Bivy app to

receive the message.

If the Status light is yellow, a message is on the Stick

trying to send to the satellite. Move to a different location

with a more open view of the sky or wait a few minutes

for a satellite to come into view. Satellites cross the sky

over about 2 hours so new satellites can come into or out

of view at any time.

SAFETY AND PRODUCT INFORMATION

USAGE REQUIREMENTS

• Messaging, tracking, SOS, weather and all Bivy Stick

features require an active Bivy Stick base data plan. You

will need to pay for a base plan of service in order for

your Bivy Stick to communicate with the satellite

network. Always test your device before taking it off grid.

• Ensure that you have clear view of the sky when using

messaging, tracking and SOS.
