App works great when it works

When it works it works great. But when the system is down there is no way to monitor the status of the systems and connections.
Keep getting “invalid credentials” and/or no connection to the service API.
Willing to give it 5 stars when there is a way to monitor the systems status.

Can’t even set up an account

You can try, but once I get the verification email, clicking on the link goes to a 500 server error. Over and over. Completely useless as far as I can tell. Does nothing…does not work…save your frustration and don’t even try. I’ve given it several tries over three days with two different emails. Still, I get the "500 server error " message. Might be grabbing your contact list or passwords, who knows? Zero stars.

Won’t sign-in to MyQ account.

UPDATE: I was finally able to get it to integrate with MyQ, but only after I left Wi-Fi and did it over cellular.

Made several attempts to sign in with email and password and app says credentials are incorrect. However when I logout of the myQ app and log back in using the same credentials, I have no problem.

Zero support for this app

I’ve used this app for the past 2 years to control my MyQ garage door through their integration. Several time the integration has broke due to MyQ changing things on their end but the makers of this app are non responsible to users questions and issues. If you need to use this app, beware that you will be receive any support if you have any issues at all.

Invalid Credentials

I have been using Simple Commands for years. Now that LiveKey is the new APP l I have not been able to control MyQ garage door openers. I downloaded the LiveKey today and attempted to integrate MyQ and keep receiving “Invalid Credentials”. I have removed everything, logged out, deleted the APP, reinstalled the APP, and still keeps giving me a Invalid Credentials. What do I have to do to get this to work?
