Kwikset Smart Locks Can Now Be Controlled Through Apple CarPlay

[Marzzz]

Still waiting on Carplay integration for MyQ, maybe this will get them to pick up the pace...

We have MyQ on the garage doors, but with our cars we have a programmable universal remote (I imagine most do these days) so I don't see the usefulness of integrating it with CarPlay. But the great thing about MyQ is you can check the status of the garage doors remotely instead of wondering (OCD style) if you remembered to close them. We once left for a two-week trip, and had to go back right after we left because my wife forgot her sunglasses, to find they we did forget to close the garage door...yikes!

I reach my garage door faster than an in-range remote can open it. It’s a small thing, but I prefer not having to wait for the door to finish opening when I know I can open it in advance from my Apple Watch.

I’m sure you already know this, but tailwind garage door opener adapter for MyQ works on CarPlay.

They should fix the bluetooth connection first. Drops every 2 minutes.

Kwikset was my first foray into smart locks. So undependable. Doesn't sound like it's gotten any better.

Imagine if Chamberlain and LiftMaster garage doors using MyQ could be actuated or checked from CarPlay… But who would want to check if they closed their garage door from inside of their car, without opening an app on their phone? ~sarcasm~

Doesn’t work with Matter.

Myq has that but charges the car manufacturer for it. for it. So only Mitsubishi has it. I’ve complained to my for years

There's certain myQ models which can be used with homebridge and then you can get it in HomeKit, thru HomeKit you can have it in CarPlay. I refuse to pay any subscriptions for smart home gear, and I also refuse to maintain dozens of apps. One app, no fees!
