How many times has this happened to you? You get in your car and drive to work, school, or a store and some time later, you stop in your tracks. Did you remember to close the garage door when you were leaving? You rack your brain trying to replay your morning in your head, but you were in a rush and there’s no way to recall for sure. Now you’re faced with two choices: roll the dice and find out later, or leave to go back home now so you can play it safe. Actually, you could have easily had a third option that’s far better than the other two — just open an app on your smartphone and close your garage door from anywhere in the world thanks to the Chamberlain MYQ-G0301 Smart Garage Door Opener.
