Great opener that works with all smart device set ups
I had purchased this opener as my second choice as my first one did not work well with my Google Home + iPhone set up. The eKyro opener is far superior simply because it works with the Smart Life app, which works with IOS and Android. Plus the Smart Life app has a CarPlay integration. So it seems that it should work for everyone no matter what devices you own. Plus since Smart Life is an app that works with various smart devices, it means that you likely will have multiple uses for it.My garage door opener is a LiftMaster 8500 wall mount. It is an opener that requires the free accessory in order to work. The accessory is basically a remote control that is connected to the eKyro. When you give the command to open/close the door the eKyro simply sends an electrical signal to the remote with triggers your garage door opener. It is very easy to order the accessory on the eKyro site. And the shipping was very fast. I ordered the at the same time as I ordered the opener on Amazon and they arrived within a day of eachother.The opener comes with an instruction book. This device is very easy to set up. And eKyro provides very clear video instructions (easily accessed from a QR code in the instructions book). They provide instructions for adding the device to Smart Life, installing the opener, and creating scenes in Smart Life.Initially the opener was not working for me. Because I could hear the click, I knew it was receiving the signal to open/close. But it wasn't transmitting it to the accessory. After multiple attempts to make a good connection between the opener and accessory, I ended up email eKyro customer support.Their customer support is absolutely stellar. Their response time is super fast. The initial suggestions to trouble shoot did not work. So they quickly offered to send me a replacement opener. That opener arrived very fast. Unfortunately, I had the same issue with it. But, they were able to confirm that they had tested it before sending it and knew that it did work.As I said the issue was with the connection between the opener and the accessory. No matter how I tried, I was not able to make a good connection with the wire connection terminal that came with the accessory. It was a bit odd. But in the end, I ended up using twist wire caps to connect the opener to the accessory and that solved the problem.Now I am able to easily open/close my garage door via voice command to my google home speaker or by tapping the button in my Google Home app, Smart Life app, or on my car's touch screen in CarPlay.I cannot give their customer support enough praise. The response time, patience, and eagerness to help was unexpected and uncommon. If you are in the market for a smart garage door opener, this is the one that you should get!

Amazing Product
My neighbor and I were talking the other day about home security. He gave me a tour of all the stuff he had for home security. One thing that really caught my attention was his ability to open and close his garage door remotely as well as check the status of the door. Soon after I got on Amazon and found the EKyro Smart Garage Door Opener, it had great reviews. Everything came in one box, smaller than I expected. I opted to program and install the unit via their instruction videos. I had no problem setting up the unit to my wifi, installation was very straight forward following the video. Once the door was working via the HomeLife app I then proceeded to program the unit to work with siri. The only issue I had was I was telling "Hey siri, open the garage door". It wasn't working because I had entered the phrase " Hey siri open garage door". The video instructs you that the phrase you say has to be exactly as the one entered in the Shortcuts app. Once I omitted the word "the", it worked great however there is a slight delay before the unit activates, approximately 2 seconds. If something doesn't work go back and review the videos, they are very thorough!I am extremely happy with this product, my wife is over the moon. I would highly recommend

So happy that it works!!!
My home is a smart home using Apple HomeKit. I wanted to have the ability to open and close my garage door when I went for a bike ride. Found this unit when I was searching for a conventional old school keypad. Was very pleased to find this. I followed the specific online instructions and it all came together. Had to make a kind of custom modification where the magnets come together with a little piece of bendable metal that I had in a tool box just sitting around, but no big deal. You can pick something up at the hardware store to attach the magnets if the pieces they send do not work with your conditions.Had to set up some "shortcuts" in the app that's available on my iPhone, which was all explained in the instructions. Bottom line is it works. When I get my bike out of the garage, I push the stem on my Apple Watch and say "close garage" and after a few seconds of delay, it happens. Same way when I return only saying "open garage."You can also use HomePod mini and your voice to actuate the door are Apple CarPlay in your vehicle if you have that. Pretty sure it all works well with android, but I cannot attest to that. Thrilled this all works!
