I can definitely recommend this unit.... amazing how simple it don't know much about wifi.... but my phone call from New Zealand opened the door all the way from Japan in real time

Thank you for your time and effort to teach us for these details. Your video was more useful than Ekyro's websites videos. Thank you.

Hey! Just bought this and installed it. Just waiting on the adapter. QUESTION, does this work if your phone isn’t connected to WiFi?

[Verse]

Phenomenal detail. Installing, and then showing how to setup on phone and automate with Siri

[hussainalnasser]

Thank you for sharing this .. really smart and helpful. Regarding the “open/close” buttons, can I add “hold” button to use while it is opening or closing !! @Automotivate

[oguzoguz]

Thanks! I was looking for a video how to install the garage door opener closer notification.

After watching this video. I purchased one of these. I have really old opener. A Stanley, it's 40 years old. It works really well, but I can't get a replacement remote. This device was very easy to install and connect to my WIFI. The only problem I had was finding a spot for the sensor. I had to fabricate a piece to attach to the top of the door for the magnet. It all works well and now I know if my garage is open no matter where I am.

Question: Can I still use the garage controllers after the smart installation?

[Long_Morning_Everyday]

Does it work with HomeKit? Looking for the ability to use voice commands in my motorcycle helmet to open the garage when I arrive home from riding.

[glennbrichacek]

Would if your wi-fi goes down? Can you still use the garage door openers? That would be a better case scenario, no ??

[DRCsyntax]

...guy describes my exact problem....using a wired opener that I thought I would need and then talks about MAN

[RenderingsToTheMAX]

Thanks for the video, gonna give it a shot. I have an older opener and the website notes it'll work with my setup - hoping it works! Opener on the cell was the goal - this looks like it'll do exactly what I'm looking for.

What if the unit has a ywllow learn button, is there any way to bypass it ? It says its not compatible with the smart garage opener 😢

[YaseenUlfat]

Can we connet more phone to garage opener?

[FireweedFarm]

Ok, but after you do that wiring, will the button by the door and the old garage door openers still work?

[robraven]

So you know and others....that system does NOT truly recognize if the door is opened or closed. Your app says the door is "open" when it was really closed. If you were to by chance hit the door "close" twice, it will actually open on you and vice versa. Also another HUGE security flaw...such as happened to me....if the power goes out in the middle of the night or whenever....the door automatically OPENS ! Fortunately for me, nothing got stolen. I returned my unit immediately after that occurrence. Try this out...see for yourself.

Have you had any issues adding a spouse iPhone to use Siri? She can open/close door with app but cannot add scenes says device not found.

I had the same problem with the remote not working;
it was the LED bulb in the motor unit.
Changed it for another brand. Same problem. Used a known brand, same problem...
I tried to move the antenna to the opposite side, and made it one meter longer, same problem.
CFL was not an option. So, I went with an old-school bulb.
Problem solved.
And my remote started to "work" again.

I thought I setup the Siri thing, but she just says "I don't see any smart home accessories connected in your home. I can help once you've set something up in the Home app." All else went well. Have "shortcuts". Setup Siri voice commands. What am I doing wrong? Why is it looking for "home app"?
