Ratings and reviews

it works really well! just a little bit of focus is needed to make sure that you set it up properly, however once it's working, it works well. and it does work with Google home as well. there were some changes to the integration with voice commands, however it is only to make it a bit more secure. but I do miss telling it to open and close and for it to be able to respond directly to my voice command instead of looking for my phone and entering commands manually.

Software is simple and hasnt required any updates [using for 2 weeks thus far] and is very intuitive. My only complaint is that from time to time I get a 'door timed out' error and it does not allow me to open the garage door. After a few moments the error clears and I'm able to open the door. Our router is 5' from the opener. requires no fee or subscription which I appreciate.

Connection to WiFi is atrocious. I have a very strong WiFi signal in the garage. The opener/app easily finds my network. But trying to get the unit connected to the WiFi is horrible. If I had other options I would not purchase this opener because of the horrible process of pairing it to the app and WiFi. I've also had unexplained instances where the garage door opens on its own without directives from the app or remote.
