This product is very simple to install and works wonderfully.

This was super easy and quick to install. App hookup was super easy even for someone that’s not yo tech savvy. Would I recommend it. For sure. Works exactly as intended

Install was easy and completed in about 40 min. The main unit that connects to the opener was simple to install and inserted the wires in the small holes. I didn't have to reset any codes or anything The hardest part was trying to find a place for the sensors to tell if the garage door is open/close. For me, I found the best place was on the side of the garage door. I mounted the larger sensor onto the rail by using some extra velcro that I had. I did this so that I can easily remove it when it's time to change the battery (which is a CR2032). I attached the smaller sensor to the door. The strange thing is why they provided the 'L" bracket, when all you really need is a flat metal plate. See my picture The software is easy to use and install Some things I wish it had: - the software to allow for an android widget on my smartphone so I don't need to open the app to open the door. It would be nice to just press a button from my main screen on android to open the garage door. - get rid of the L bracket and just a flat plate will do. Or even better, have a gyroscope sensor that detects when it's horizontal/vertical (like the chamberlain garage door opener) to detect when the door is open/close

The black screen part of the unit was scuffed a bit, I had 2 bags of the reset pin/screws but the reset pin/screws were outside of 1 bag. Missing double-sided tape promised in the instructions. Wires and twist ties weren't coiled nicely so I'm suspecting I got a returned unit. I didn't want to wait for a replacement so I just went ahead and installed same night I received it. I powered it on in my kitchen, reset with the pin push as advised in instructions, downloaded the Smart Life app and setup there first. Then tested the sensor for open/close by putting the 2 pieces together and pull apart, worked great. Unplugged power and then took to garage. In the garage, I took out the first terminal (push the bottom tab with a screwdriver) with wiring in my Chamberlain Liftmaster Pro 1/2hp (11 yr old model) and twisted in the red wire from the Datonten unit, then put it back into the terminal. Did the same thing with 2nd terminal (from left) there were already 2 wires in there, twisted my black/red striped wire from the unit onto 1 and put all 3 back into terminal 2, then plugged into power outlet in my ceiling where my garage door opener already took 1 spot. the bracket holes didn't line up on my garage door top for the small sensor, so I just used my gorilla double-sided tape and stuck it on. Used my own tape for the big sensor with the battery onto the wall - redid it when it fell off (placed too low close to the door) - so make sure you place it slightly on higher side where the bracket/small sensor reaches. Your garage door needs a tiny bit of clearance before it moves away from the wall. Works great, logs and detects if door is opened by the usual panel button or my rearview mirror homelink button. Google assistant works great too, free.

I used it for more than one year and I never could able to trust it. Not even a single time. Sometimes it works and sometimes it won’t. WiFi Router is not more than 15 feet away. Yesterday, I forgot to close the garage door and neighbors informed me and I couldn’t able to close it remotely. This was my last attempt and I had throw it. MyQ device is much better and reliable. No wiring is required and this device comes at the same price. I’m going for it
