The myq is a great smart garage door opener but there is one big downfall that may prevent shoppers from pulling the trigger.
Myq garage door app alexa.
For example a good night routine can shut off all the lights lock the front door and close the myq garage door.
But alexa is an ifttt supported services that will allow users to connect it with the right applet to close the garage via myq subscription service for liftmaster.
Integrated video camera features 1080p hd video with 2 way audio communication and optional cloud storage.
To open the door you need to supply a pin.
Receive activity alerts and open close your garage door on your smartphone.
Now you are able to control your garage doors with your voice.
The quick answer is no chamberlain s myq smart home garage opener does not natively work with alexa.
Set recurring schedules to close your garage door and turn myq lights on off.
Connect amazon alexa to myq to unlock powerful experiences do more with amazon alexa by connecting it to myq and hundreds of other apps and devices with ifttt.
Feel reassured that the kids got home safely.
With the myq garage access control app you ll always know what s going on at home even while you re away.
After this run discovery in the alexa app or ask alexa to discover devices.
That s peace of mind right in the palm of your hand.
The base model chamberlain myq does not work with alexa by itself.
Requires chamberlain garage door opener models b4545 or b6765 or liftmaster garage door opener model 85503 or liftmaster camera myq sgc1wlm.
One with an open garage door action and one with a close garage door action triggers are not required.
Once this process is done these routines will appear under the scenes menu in the alexa app.
The short answer is yes and no.
Know see and hear what s going on in your garage with live streaming video only from myq.
For me the combination of myq garage door opener and alexa using ifttt provides all the functionality that i need.
Alexa does not always respond to alexa ask my q.
Let in the dog walker or a repairman.
Smart starts in the garage.
My q smart home app.

Our wi fi openers have smart technology built in so it s easy to connect your garage but you can also add myq to your existing opener.
There are no instructions on how to set the pin in either the myq app or the alex a app.
They mention that you can name the door but again there are no instructions on how to set the name in either the myq app or the alexa app.
