In this video we teach you how to connect and set up a MyQ Smart Garage door opener. These instructions will work for both Liftmaster and Chamberlain Garage Door Openers that have the MyQ Wifi Symbol on them. Once you have your MyQ Smart Garage connected you will be able to remotely control your garage door to open or close it from your phone. You will also be able to check the current status of your garage door and see if it's open or closed from the phone.
If you have a newer Liftmaster or Chamberlain garage door opener there's a good chance that it has MyQ built in an that it's capable of connecting to your wifi network for remote control from your phone. It's a good idea to check
How To Set Up MyQ Smart Garage Door:
1. Check your garage door opener for the MyQ wifi symbol. If you have the MyQ symbol on the garage door opener cover which is typically located on the side of the device your garage door opener should be able to connect to the MyQ App.
2. Download and install the MyQ garage door app. Set up a username and password.
3. Follow the instructions on the app then select your garage door opener from the picture.
4. Make sure your phone has wifi, bluetooth and location turned on.
5. Press the learn button and follow the instructions on the MyQ app. Your MyQ garage door will then connect to the MyQ app and allow you to control it remotely.

Well if everything went perfectly like this, I wouldn't be looking up videos...

[@telecasterman18]

Seriously haha 🙄

[@santa1563]

ikr

[@Corbetting]

agreed.... MyQ setup is the worst ive seen

[@harrisonnofoa6602]

Same here, can we just open up the app and Press open or close.

[@ohsheila7355]

It is finicky and connects and reconnects often on its own. But I do like my q

[@k.d8895]

This has been the most frustrating thing I’ve had to do since moving into our new house. I’m so over it.

[@missj7765]

Same and on the last time I tried to connect my garage broke and wouldn’t stay closed

[@gilbertllamas8987]

Same here changed my WiFi and can’t reconnect! Driving me nuts

[@trocycling1204]

I never needed my garage door opener to connect to my wifi, and this has created even more issue than I originally had.

[@mikethornton4647]

Didn't work. I'm getting a message that my serial number doesn't match my device. This shouldn't be this hard.

[@robbetts]

I’m gonna go ahead and say thanks for this video. Very helpful.

[@Yuhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh]

Bro mine sets up a new wifi network with the garage door opener and kicks me off my internet and then can't connect because I'm now connected to the garage doors wifi

[@stephenparedes7698]

This video saved me so much time!

[@manojkumardumpala8083]

awesome instructions, Thank you

[@chenellebeautytv]

I used to work for this company. It should work if your opener is one of the newer models with WI-FI Capability. Otherwise you would need to call customer service so that they can send you one of the hubs to help with Wi-Fi access.

[@rmcoelho]

Do You have any video showing how to set up the CODE for the outdoor control? Thank you

[@gardenia8213]

Do I need to install the control pad on wall if I need to replace the current craftsman one?

[@billkiessel6682]

Would be nice to be able to turn the lights on/off

[@renegade43]

Can you only control the light in the opener without opening or closing the garage door via the app? there are times I need more light in the garage as the area where the opener is in my garage does not have a wall switched light

[@FactsMattersUSA]

This will work with any garage door opener. I switch my chamberlin for a precision door opener and it works fine.

[@pasel8125]

My app brings up three garage doors. How do I find out which one is mine???

[@blindreck]

What do u do if it says it cant find any networks i full bars. (On wifi 6)

[@azstyles1965]

Thank you sir great info ! I'm ready to install mine 👍

[@cripsito]

How do I stop the beeps ?

[@glee835]

Well I have it set up on my phone, but also wanted to set up the car button on the mirror which comes in handy if you don’t have your phone

[@Tina-qp7py]

I won't use the car opener again because thieves broke into my car and stole it, so I'm not replacing it.

[@stclairthomas3836]

For some reason mines won’t work properly in Michigan winter months.. i guess it’s to cold up here for it .

[@westomas]

Didn’t hear beep…

[@JRspeaking]

Mine never beeps. Help! What do I do now?

[@sigdifference]

My garage door opener has an embedded camera. I cannot get the camera to connect. Any ideas?

[@janemanuel9740]

MyQ used to work but I just got a new phone and I don't believe my craftsman garage door opener has wi-fi. What do I have to do to get it to work without wi-fi?

[@Shawn-fu3mp]

YOU CAN'T...do you not understand that it needs wi-fi???

[@beaubiddle834]

No beep 😞

[@debbieseiffertbuildingdepa4883]

oh shoot I bought it a couple months ago but my unit does not have the wifi what do I do?

[@robertj.harrington8327]

The green LED is your network connection to the Internet. It will flash initially while establishing a connection, then after possibly several minutes (10?) it should be a solid green light. If you power down the gateway after a solid green light, you should get a green/blue LED flash on power up and then a solid green LED fairly quickly. When green is solid, press the left mouse button.

[@deryksmith8942]

How do u share

[@dennism7532]

Mine worked. Now it doesn’t and won’t connect. I keep trying different t ways

[@bryanmcky4764]

I’m already set up with the ap but all it says is offline and I cannot get past that

[@tonydebusk1211]

Mine won’t connect to WiFi.

[@kittyescue9899]

Lol, Doug!

[@HyperPete]

No info on connecting to Google voice or other voice control devices as hinted at beginning of video.

[@eunhyelee9994]

I use Android and it won't even ask for my home WIFI password. It keeps connecting to the myQ wifi network idk why

[@parveenaman6746]

My garage door opener is not with wifi, will this product work ?

[@Shawn-fu3mp]

NO!

[@murd777]

You should hire a magician to do the trick!

[@kojam1]

Oh boy! Realized yesterday that my opener is MyQ compliant (just moved to this house less than a year now)...spent a few hours yesterday. NO LUCK! I'm doing it right from the opener. I don't have any of the on-wall controllers shown in the app. The previous owner only had one of those generic beige/white keypads. Cannot find any videos that shows how to do it right from the unit! The app says to unplug the unit, plug it back in, press the yellow learn button 3 times, then the square learn light show blink and make a beeping sound, meaning it's ready to connect. Well, I tried a billion times but the blue learn light NEVER comes on! No beep! It still finds my unit, takes me to the wifi setup, but won't connect. After a while of this insanity, it no longer finds my unit. WTH?!?!?! Who's the saddist who designed this garbage?!?! Reading all the complaints here now makes me realize that I should probably NOT waste anymore time on this. Even if i manage to get it to work, I make end up encountering all sorts of random headaches after. Am I asking too much of companies to make/sell things that work? Amazon, Wyze, Microsoft, now Chamberlain...wasting my time to make their products work as advertised!

[@missdianacee]

Same. Smh

[@billjonesnation]

Tried on and off for a year and can't get into Learning mode. My other opened beeps but never fully connects.

[@kahlonsaab4823]

Same problem did u find a solution

[@billjonesnation]

I called tech support and they walked me through a different way to connect through a website and not the app. Surprisingly it was helpful and the only way to get it working.

[@kojam1]

@@billjonesnation So, uhm, what's that website please?

[@Drago-ov9ku]

Sao

[@leonardjackson842]

I had mine connected to my phone for 2 years. I changed my wifi company and tried to reconnect my phone and now is says the serial number on my device is not recognized. C'mon man. 😒

[@14s0cc3r14]

How do I get it to forget an email? It’s still connected to the previous owner

[@lanceromance1022]

mind doing the same thing

[@ronk.6080]

My garage now opens when I'm not home. I can't figure out the app so I deleted it off my phone. Then the garage opens again. How do I get rid of this MY Q

[@Crimefighter]

Useful TIP which WAS NOT IN TROUBLESHOOTING - a FORCE clear of the Wifi password so you can reenter it if it repeatedly refuses to connect blinking blue or blue/green - Hold the rectangular button down ten seconds until it beeps multiple times. That USEFUL tip is what you need to know if it keeps failing.

[@anthonygallardo84]

Mine just stays blinking green

Where is the rest of the gear. Be nice to see the set up, placement, etc.

[@borg9355]

For those having problems getting it to work through the app there is a work around from tech support. I would post it here however it requires an external link (and one is not allow to post external links in comments); but if you contact tech support you could mention how to do the setup but by passing the app. Still need to use the app after the initial setup; but my issue was after entering the password for the network the app was not able to stay connected long enough for the "beeps" to indicate it had setup correctly. Everything was correctly setup for my network etc because the only thing I did different to get it to work was follow their instructions for by passing the app.

[@ronaldduty7854]

I just got a Chamberlain garage door opener. I programmed my smartphone It works. How do I program my son's smartphone to my garage door opener. Do you have a video thank you

[@Yrachetam]

That is my problem, I tried to setup my wife’s phone as a co~owner but it won’t connect when I go through the steps with her or my son’s phone???

In the perfect world setup .... we don't all live in the perfect world. What about troubleshooting?

[@murd777]

Nice, but it doesn’t work with Siri, Alexa or Google.

[@Drago-ov9ku]

Aao

[@vincewilliams-co7td]

Worst garage door opener. Have nothing but trouble since we bought it. Now can not get it to connect at all.

[@Wings80]

Alerts never work. I can open and close but that is it. Never alerts me and sends me a notification when the door is opened or closed.

[@mra8073]

Check notifications - mine works always - everytime I go to the bar mid day it lets me now that I have set it for 50 min open - never fails

[@richardbrown8681]

Why not declare assault weapons as military grade weapons and make it only for military use only?

[@russmanZ34]

So I hit the learn button and no beeps or nothing this hokey crap never works right. Biggest piece of sh7$ I have ever bought what a damn joke
