I need to have reliable smart-device based garage door opener. I use the Apple eco-system and Homekit, combined with a Homebridge setup, and my priority is to have a smart-connection so I can ask Siri to open the door with my motorcycle communicator (I have Cardo Packtalk Edge) so I can easily park it. First, I had a myQ. I dumped it because they want a subscription to allow smart-home access. For the next few years I went with Aladdin Genie. They are free for smart-home functionality, but since I had that, I had NONSTOP issues with that. It didn't want to connect to my router from inside the house (I have a separated garage, so there is distance between router and the garage connected to the alleyway behind my house.) It would see my wifi, but just blink that it still had connectivity issues. So I got a more powerful router and that thing has no trouble connecting to anything in my garage... except that Aladdin unit. Then I got a repeater in the garage. That had no issues connecting to my router and still, the Aladdin unit had issues even with that. I gave up on the Aladdin when I got locked out of my own garage. It decided to just not connect to the app. Very weird too, it was disconnected right around 3pm, but when I got home at 1am after work, it worked. Maybe they had server issues, but then again, they don't send any emails saying there will be issues. And it happened Monday, Tuesday, then Wednesday. Not very convenient. Now after all that, I did my research and landed on this. The online community who knows Apple Homekit seemed to recommend Meross, and I never heard of them before, and I decided to give it a try. I got the unit and I watched a couple YouTube videos, followed the included instructions, and I had this device up and running in about 30-40 minutes, including tie-wrapping the cables and securing the device. After a few adjustments, learning some functionality in the app (like disabling doors 2 and 3 so Homekit doesn't access them for now, as I only have 1 garage door opener for a 2-car garage) I'm happy to say that this device works great. ZERO connectivity issues so far as my router and my repeater show full strength connection (the Aladdin did too so I'm assuming its on their end). The moment I "flip the switch" in Apple Home, or press the button in Carplay, the garage door opens and closes near instantly. My garage door opener is at LEAST 20 years old and to get it connected, it was just two wires. There is a compatibility list for openers on Meross's webpage so check BEFORE you buy. Because its wired to my garage door, theres no "learning" required and no button to push like an in-car garage door opener. The only thing I liked with the Aladdin device (when it did work) and the myQ was when a signal was sent to open or close the door, or if an automation kicked in (I had a requirement to shut the door after 30 minutes being open,) they had a bright white warning light flasher to indicate the door was about to move, since you didn't push any buttons. Meross's device DOES NOT have that, so if you setup an automation similar to mine, the door will immediately respond without warning. Also, It is important that if you tinker with the wiring, which you likely will be, to verify that you did not disconnect or cause your garage door obstruction safety system to be disabled. Another plus that I have with the Meross is its open/close sensor, which appears to be magnet based. You run the line from the Meross box to the garage door. I have mine at the top corner to my door along the wall, with the additional magnet also right next to it on the door itself. Very similar to window security systems. When you setup your app, it'll go into detail to verify the system is working by using these sensors. What I LOVE about this is that it is not battery based. The Aladdin and myQ used a button-battery-based sensor you stuck to the door which needed to be replaced after a year or two. Not necessary with the Meross thankfully. In fact, the other disadvantage I had with the battery sensor was in winter when the door was very cold as it gave poor performance. And if the battery sensor failed or disconnected due to a dead-battery, or a frozen battery, those garage door openers also failed because it couldn't tell if the door was opened or closed. Thankfully not the case with the Meross. I certainly recommend this unit, especially for people with more than one garage door. I may only have one opener but I know that when I replace that door and add a second opener for that, all I have to do is run another sensor line for that door similar to the way I did my current door and that this package ("meross Smart Garage Door Opener Remote with External Antenna" in case desertcart links this review with other Meross stuff) already comes with that expandability (up to 2 doors out of the box, if you have a 3rd garage door, you need another sensor cable add-on.) Review: Easy to install, good features and functionality with the Meross APP, works with other apps too! - I bought this garage door opener because I have three doors and wanted something that came as one unit rather than having three separate controls, one for each door. This opener worked like a charm and was very simple to install. The unit works on a huge number of garage door openers. When I was trying to decide if it would work on mine, I was a little frustrated as there was no list showing which openers it would work with but once I got the product, downloaded the APP and saw the vast selection of openers it was compatible with, I could see why. There are just TOO many to list in the description on the web page! To install the product, you'll need to download the Meross APP first, create an account and then it will walk you through the steps to install the unit, route and connect the wiring, etc. At first, the APP can seem a bit cumbersome when trying to get it to work but it's not difficult at all, once you follow the proper steps in the instructions. There are no fees or subscriptions needed as the APP is free; I like free! With the APP, there are a lot of features you can use to control your garage doors, you can set them up to close at a certain time, get notifications when a door is opened, you can view a record of openings and closings, etc. You can even check the APP and at a glance, see if your doors are open or closed, very nice feature! And of course, the opener works seamlessly with other smart control devices, even multiple ones if you have more than one which you use. I have Alexa as my main control device at home, but I also have Siri on my phone, and I can open or close the doors with either one. If you have the Alexa app on your phone, you can control them with it as well. If you're in your vehicle and don't have the Alexa app or have it listening, you can just tell Siri to open (or close) your garage door. I really love all of this functionality! And you can control the doors from anywhere as long as you have a Wi-Fi signal. Again, just check the Meross APP to see whether they are open or closed. A couple of things I want to mention, one is, this controller only comes with wiring for two doors but it can be used on three doors. This is noted in the description so it's no big deal but, I needed the third set of wiring and had to research it to figure out the right thing to order. Meross, you need to either list that third wiring set in the description for this product or put a link to it on the product page. Secondly, I reached out to Meross customer service, not for a problem, but to ask a technical question and I received a very fast response from Lydia. Her response was concise and easily understood, answering my question exactly, leaving no doubt in my mind about what I was asking - great job! Overall, I highly recommend this product if you're wanting to upgrade and have the ability to control your garage doors other than with switches or remotes. With the Meross APP, you don't need anything else to have that full control over your doors but having the other smart control options is nice as well. I like the product so much, I've already ordered another one to use with the two large garage doors on my workshop. For the money and the features you get, this product is a great value! d this long before I got them! ## Features - Compatibility Tips: The smart garage door opener is compatible with 200 brands and over 1600 models.

Apple requires this hub to fulfill remote control. Learn more at https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT207057 **Q: How do you make the msg100 discoverable for alexa? i have enabled the skill and searched dozens of times for a new device but it cannot be found.** A: The device is discoverable if you go to Add New Device and select garage door, then Meross. As wolderiii notes, the instructions tell you to download "smart meross' but IGNORE THAT. Instead, follow the prompts after you selected garage door, then Meross and it will have you download the Meross skill. Once that's done, you can discover your device and set it up. I can now say "Alexa, open / close the garage door" and it works perfectly. **Q: Does it work with it work with overhead door odyssey 1000? I didn’t see it listed on the website.** A: A good way to check is to jump the two terminals where your wired remote is connected to the garage door opener. If the door opens, when it is closed or closes when it is open, it should work with your model opener. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very easy to setup and get going. *by T***R on November 6, 2025* So far so good.
