no dark mode?

wth, blinded while viewing videos at night….thanks!

Junk software, is constantly offline

I have the garage door camera and this thing feels like it’s offline more often than it is working. I can almost never view events or the camera when I really want to and wish I could just Office Space the hell out of this junk ware device. Worst part is there isn’t even an option to keep the light on for more than 3 or 5 minutes at a time.

Keeps disconnecting from Apple Watch

Update: I partially retract my statements below.Please rollback to previously released version

It turns out the latest MyQ app update knocked out my Liftmaster Bridge, which is why I wasn’t able to see my existing devices. I had to do a factory reset on it, Re-pair it to my HomeKit. Then from there was able to reconnect my garage door openers. Total time took me 1.5 hours to troubleshoot, research and ensure success.
The latest update (a few days ago from this writing) looks totally different. My two garage door openers are no longer recognized and thus the new app version shows 0 devices. What happened? I have two Liftmaster 8550 openers. Since they were released in 2013, I also have installed a Liftmaster home hub to allow smart WiFi capability and they worked fine. I used to be able to open/close garage doors with iPhone, iPad and HomeKit and the previous version of the MyQ app along with Apple Watch. I can no longer pair them with this latest MyQ app version. My openers disappeared and app wants me to pair new devices. Latest version does not detect my openers anymore when trying to re-pair. Please please roll back and re-release the previous version. Thank you.
