Notifications on schedules

Schedules was long waiting great future added to the mobile Apps. Thank you for adding this future. I just would like to add my comments on options for notifications on schedules. It will be more practical, if notifications on triggered schedules will be only if action had been taken. For example, I created schedule to close my garage door at 11:00 PM every day and requested to send me notifications on this event. I suggest to App send notification ONLY if door was left open and App. executed schedule to close the door. Now I am getting emails and push notification every day at 11:00 PM, even when door was closed prior 11:00 PM and no action was taken.

    Sounds reasonable.
    I wasn't waiting for this feature - I'd rather have multiple users with access to specific 'locations' 
    However I believe this can easily be done as long as they programmed the feature to 'check door status' before they send the 'close'

  • Friendly ammendment.  
    As it relates to "garage doors" isn't there a difference between "Alert" and "Notifications"?
    I have "Alerts" set up every time the door is opened and closed.
    However, a compromise, can't you set up a "Scheduled event" to close the garage door and don't pick to send either a push notification or an email?  You "LOSE" the ability to know whether it was open or closed, however, it will shut it down for you.  And if the door is reopened or closed your ALERT would flag the issue.  I realize this is a compromise but until the MyQ folks program in advanced controls (maybe not to keep the app lightweight) ... maybe this will suffice?  Not being patronizing, merely sharing based on what you wrote.
