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.
…guy describes my exact problem….using a wired opener that I thought I would need and then talks about motorcycles……MY MAN
Phenomenal detail. Installing, and then showing how to setup on phone and automate with Siri
Anyone have any ideas why my opener not moving when I jump the white n red ? This is preventing me to install this wireless opener

Looks suspiciously rebranded SONOFF basic relay.
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"?

Can we connet more phone to garage opener?
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.
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.
Oh.. what would happen if your phone lost?š
Can i use 2 phone sam time
For some reason my Siri works with "Close the Garage" only.
Question: Can I still use the garage controllers after the smart installation?
quite impressive
Ok, but after you do that wiring, will the button by the door and the old garage door openers still work?
Would if your wi-fi goes down? Can you still use the garage door openers? That would be a better case scenario, no ??
Seems like a lot of work, but I guess if you have the patience, you could do this. Where is that accent from?

Thanks! I was looking for a video how to install the garage door opener closer notification.
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.
Iām the guy who has to drive back a mile later because he canāt recall whether or not he closed the garage door.
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.

Hey! Just bought this and installed it. Just waiting on the adapter. QUESTION, does this work if your phone isnāt connected to WiFi?
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.
Thank you for sharing this .. really smart and helpful. Regarding the āopen/closeā buttons, can I add āholdā button to use while it is opening or closing !! @Automotivate
