MyQ Garage Alarm/Notification for Door left open
It appears to me after following this thread for more than 6 months that alot of purchasers want or thought MyQ garage would provide a alarm and/or notification when the garage door is left open a certain amount of time. I have read numerous appeals to Chamberlain for remedy. They seem uninterested or unwilling to provide. This thing is a connected device and seems to have the necessary hardware to do the requested task. I have seen other threads by persons who seem to have legitimate tech knowledge and they seem to confirm that suspicion. The question is why hasn't this already happened considering the significant interest? Are we not getting Chamberlain's attention? If not, is there something we can do? A petition or some other kind of appeal? Unfortunately, we have already purchased this product, so a boycott is ineffective? Let's do something. Ideas?

I agree, the MyQ app is lacking. Not really worth the money in its current form. If your thinking of buying, save your money until it actually does something.

I have been using rules for more than a year that notifies me when the door is left open. Maybe I am not understanding the question.

Feature on Android. I go to the menu, alerts, add alert (+), turn on/off "Garage door is open" and/or "Garage door is closed", etc. Are you on iOS and/or seeing something different?

The app needs to give you a few runs for action. I get the notifications that the garage is opened and closed, but I want to set a rule to close the garage every night at x:00. I have this configured on the button panel, but why is it not integrated with the app? If I can open with the app, get notifications with app, and close with the app, why can't I set a rule to close after a given amount of time or based on a time? This is a great security feature to make sure a garage is not left open at night for passerbys to thieve from you. Sounds like a no-brainer feature.

First off, thanks MyQ for adding this feature! I have been using it now for a while and it it works great! I have a trigger called "Night close" and at the same time every night, if the garage is open, it will close.

I agree that the auto-close at a specific time is very nice. I still do wish that we could add a rule based upon a given amount of time. Also, a major security issue is if you stop the door partway open. The information exists at least on some doors, but is not exposed in the apps.
