Pros

Incredibly easy to install with my 20 year old craftsman (liftmaster/chamberlain) opener. Response time to both siri and alexa are great. The app is nice but i used the integration with smarthings and alexa.

Product works as advertised. It was packaged very nicely. This is a great upgrade.

I often work out of town and it was wonderful to be able to remotely open the door for repairmen and deliveries. I have a linear ldc0800 garage door opener (which, btw, cannot be closed by just hitting "enter" from the exterior keypad like my neighbor...  Read More

It works seamlessly with my homekit setup. I like that only unlocked phones can control the garage door. Another benefit of smart things is that they have an iphone widget.

Easy installation, easy setup, and the fastest response time of any homekit accessory i’ve ever seen.


It took me a little over an hour to set up and it has been working great with no issues.

The unit was relatively easy to install for an older, retired, not so savvy tech guy.

Price


Installed this $45 merros apple homekit enabled garage door opener today, and i must say — it’s a solid 10 out of 5.

Competitiveness


Not a deal breaker, but not as easy as myq.

    I couldnt get any remote to work with my garage door opener


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I can now track when the door is opened and closed as well as verify the door is closed


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Great customer support quick responses even though i ended up figuring it out on my own by reading closer the detailed instructions that were provided


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I originally had a myq device operating my geni opener but after years of disconnects for no reason i tossed it away and went with this one


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Now the app is no where near as complete as the myq app but this device stays connected all the time which is what i needed


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I just hope they add some of the features that myq has like easily showing who opened the door and when etc
