Using an app, Chamberlain’s myQ garage door openers allows one to check whether your garage is open or closed and control it. As there are no charges for basic functionality, but assimilation with services such as IFTTT and Google Assistant are what the company call as “Premium Services”, usually cost a dollar a month. Although, for a limited period of time year- long subscriptions to those services are free of charge.
The subscriptions are set to auto-renew following your free year is up but you can cancel whenever you want. You will be able to sign up even without entering any payment information. We made an account and received a free subscription to the Google Assistant integration in few minutes exclusive of ever flaunting a credit card.
Its significance is that many patrons not satisfied at all with Google Assistant functionality. It’s apparently slow to respond and you cannot use it for opening your garage which was most probably as a safety measure; so somebody can’t scream from outside your home, “Hi Google, please open the garage” in hopes of getting in. moreover, other openers such as Tailwind also offer alike functionality with no subscription.
There are total 5 premium services which you can get in all. These are IFTTT, Google Assistant, Clare Controls, EVE for Tesla and Alpine Connect. You can go crazy and simply sign up for all these; if you want then you can also opt for the yearly plans that are all free right now. If you already have a card which is linked to your myQ account then you should be aware to cancel it before your auto-renew date to keep away from possible billing. However, Chamberlain doesn’t declare from their side that for how long time this offer is good, so if want then you can try it out, do not hang about.
