Ratings and reviews

Works great most of the time. Issues... goes offline after internet outages. Only way to get it back online is to powercycle the garage door opener. Also, was forced to log out a few days ago, and haven't been able to log back in. Keep getting C-AE 1 error. Tried resetting password, but it fails, and then get same C-AE 1 error. Ah, clearing app storage, and cache fixed the login issue.

This was very tedious to set up but it may be the wifi limitations of the opener rather than the app. My phone had a very strong wifi signal but the opener couldn't find it at all. I eventually moved my router to the garage and it worked like a charm. After it finished setting up, I then moved my router back into the house but to a room closer to the garage. It works great now. App gets buggy if you go to a different window briefly to see your password so you can enter it. Improve this please!

This is the worst app I've ever used. It fails to connect to Wi-Fi, despite having a mesh router within six feet of it. It has an atrocious interface that asks if you want to delete the garage door opener if you have any slight lateral movement when pressing the graphical button. It constantly needs to be reset if you somehow get it working. Furthermore, the app crashes when scanning the barcode or entering the serial manually to add an opener. I would rate this app zero starts if possible.
