I google "Wyze Garage Door Controller" and your tutorial video is at number 4th. I watch it one by one from the first video. And your video has helped me a lot, I understand better and I'm no longer worried that I will have many difficulties when installing. Thank you very much. Wishing you always be healthy and successful.👍
Very nice tutorial. I'm impressed with how clean the inside of your garage door is. Ours has so many spider webs and bugs, no matter how much we remove them, they just keep coming back. Yours was pristine! 😁
I was impressed with how little of exposed wire they ship out of the box. I was able to do it without stripping the wires more, but they could easily expose a little more
@@ABROnlineAcademy I legitimately *just* installed it this morning. Came to your video to see if there's anything else I need to do Doing okay so far, very very easy install. Brought my drill to the garage and didn't even need it
having had the smart wyze controller for some months now what has been your experience(s) ? Any recurring issues, etc..? Thanks for a great hands on video of the actual hardware innstall.
The controller has been a good purchase for our home. We have more vehicles than garage door openers right now, so it is nice to be able to open and close the garage door even if we don't have an opener. Now I don't have to take my keys with me when we decide to go out for a quick walk or bike ride. I just make sure I have my phone on me (which I always do). It has also come in useful several times when we leave the house and wonder if we forgot to close the garage door. We can easily check and close it if we forgot. The only real negative I have noticed is that the app is a bit slow to open, so it can take a little while to open the app, tap on the controller and wait for it to load before you can open/close the door. There are available widgets on Android and iOS that make it a bit faster, so that's something I would highly recommend. Other than that, I have been very happy with the purchase and would highly recommend it.
Thanks for the great reply, good info there. I was more worried about any glitches that the door did not open at all, wifi disconnects, etc.. And how many times how often those glitches occur. Have you done much with Alexa control with it? I ask because that's part of the reason I was going to go with this wyze model, instead of MyQ. And I really don't want to do a subscription, so that SD card is a good thing assuming it works well with it. Thanks again. @@ABROnlineAcademy
So sorry I missed this message. Unfortunately, I have not done anything with Alexa, so I really can't give any advice there. Since you wrote this, did you ever try anything with Alexa? I would be interested in hearing about your experience.
Yes. It needs to remain on the door after setup. It uses the qr code to know if the door is opened or closed. If the camera sees the qr code, it knows the door is closed. I thought it would bother me at first, but I honestly never see it. It's only visible when the garage door is closed, so I forget it's even there.

I couldn't agree more! I'm glad you were able to get it without having to stripping them. How's it working so far?

Do you know… does that QR sheet on the door need to remain on the door after set up?
Yes. It needs to remain on the door after setup. It uses the qr code to know if the door is opened or closed. If the camera sees the qr code, it knows the door is closed. I thought it would bother me at first, but I honestly never see it. It's only visible when the garage door is closed, so I forget it's even there.

Couldn't watch your struggles. 😎
It certainly wasn't a perfect install. But, I'm happy to say it's been working well ever since.
