Thread Details
This has been a long time coming, unfortunately...
For anyone who has a MyQ-native opener, or has bought the MyQ add-on for their existing opener, Chamberlain has officially pulled the plug on all HomeKit/Alexa/Google Home control, including through third-party workarounds that have worked for the past year or two.
Workarounds now mean buying new hardware, either by Meross or Aladdin. And a potential Security 2.0 hardwired button for a bypass if necessary.
Meross: https://www.amazon.com/meross-Com...B084Z5QZR
Aladdin: https://www.amazon.com/Genie-Comp..._1_4_maf
Bypass button: https://www.ebay.com/itm/273941572287
Feel free to downvote, but for the ten of us who have used it, it's a pretty big deal.
