My life has now completely changed! We feel so much safer and it’s so convenient. I started using KEY to get my Amazon packages and boy is that exciting! I’m like the king of the world!!!
Although you have to use the My Q app (like we need another app), it connects to Alexa via its integration with Ring. I know that sounds great, but it is really only good for alerts for motion deduction. So if you are thinking you can be James Bond or Michael Knight cool and say Alexa “open garage door one”, you will be undoubtedly disappointed as I was.
Ok, here’s a few things I don’t like so you are prepared.
1) from the beginning it’s not clear that the initial kit only has one sensor (I know you can kind of deduce that from the box, but most garage doors come in at least pairs). Additional sensors cost more than main kit that comes with one.
2) they don’t sell a full kit that either comes with 2 sensors or 2 sensors and the camera (my guess it’s for marketing so it looks cheaper, but you won’t be happy until you have a camera ($140) an all your garage doors on sensors ($29.98 each). I did the one door setup with no camera and was like how do I know for sure that the door is up or down. Or if I get a delivery they swipe something from garage or open the other door. So you add the camera and it just doesn’t make any sense not to have the other sensor.)! You may be able to find some Prime bundles for as low as $175.
3) only use the smart camera My Q recommends. It works with the app so you don’t need a different one and it is magnetic and can stick to the opener or other surface for good positioning and great facial recognition. (Side bar - I tried the blink camera, which is great but sucks as the camera for your garage My Q system. It doesn’t integrate with My Q so it can not be controlled when you are in My Q. It works well with Alexa, but you can’t view it on Ring. So it will work for Key and it has a motion sensor when your garage door opens, but it won’t record continuously. You only get 10 seconds of motion. So you can see your garage go up and when it comes down, but you would have to actually go to live view to see what’s happening. I don’t know about you, but I want everything recorded if someone is coming in my garage to leave a package. I might not have time to pull over in traffic or interrupt a meeting to go to live stream my garage. Lol. You can try a ring camera for longer recordings, but still doesn’t integrate with My Q app but any other camera you will have the same issues and more apps. Look to spend about $200 or more if you want My Q everything in garage for convenience and peace of mind.
Alexa, work on that skill so we can just say open or close garage!
Setup and installation: This was a lot faster than I expected. One try to pair it to my garage opener and I spent maybe 5 minutes in total.
App: I don’t like that on the Home Screen of the app there is a rotating ad at the top of things you can buy or integrate with. You should be able to dismiss them particularly as some don’t even apply to you. I dislike the enough that I’m taking a star off along with detail below.
That aside I think the app allows you to do many things including setup notifications. The notifications are particularly useful because you can be alerted when the garage door is opened or closed regardless if it was done by myq. The garage door button or any non myq openers will still trigger a notification.
Hardware: the main unit and sensor are easy to setup. The main unit has a ridiculously bright strobe light on it that flashes and makes loud beeps when the garage door will close (unless you use a paid integration)
3rd party integration: I’m using the tesla integration 30 day trial. You can do some cool things like have the garage door or close automatically once you get within a certain proximity of your house. It’s nice and useful but I’m not sure at this point if I feel it’s worth the price to use over the free app.
In conclusion i think this was a great buy but time will tell if it’s good enough to rely on solely.
Review after owning it for a month.
The short answer: i still like it.
I don’t think the 3rd party integration is worth it. It’s not even the price. Many times it doesn’t work (not a wifi or mobile data issue) and I have to fall back to the myq phone app which is free.
In my initial review i mentioned the strobe light and loud beep. I see why they do this as i can open and close the garage from anywhere, but as with how it’s handled in 3rd party apps. The phone app should use some logic and even at the basic level. Time since opened to determine if it should beep when closing. Not the sound you want to trigger late night.
Randomly i had to repair the door sensor to the main unit once.

Easy to install, extremely effective, and decent app. It takes the worry out of knowing whether the garage door was left open or not. it even provides provides a history of access. It's good when you're not home and want to give a family member access before getting home. It's proven useful and you can also set a auto close schedule - just in case if you do leave it open , it can trigger to close automatically.👍🏻
Reviewed in Mexico on February 23, 2024
Note that it does *not* support z-wave, so if your home uses z-wave extensively you may wish to consider another unit. The unit connects via Wifi so you must have good Wifi coverage in your garage.
A diferencia del modelo de color blanco, este dispositivo es compatible con los motores que traen botón de aprendizaje color amarillo. La instalación fue sencilla y no me llevó mas de 30 minutos. El instructivo dice que el modulo se instale alejado de cosas metálicas, sin embargo lo instalé en la misma estructura que sostiene al motor y funcionó sin problemas. Por otro lado, el sensor de posición lo atornille en el panel superior del portón y la instalación fue sencilla.
Una vez que el usuario principal configura su perfil en la aplicación, se pueden agregar accesos adicionales en forma de copropietarios (pareja, hijos) o usuarios temporales.
