New updates are being added at the bottom of this story…….
Original story (published on August 24, 2021) follows:
myQ is a popular garage door controller that also lets you control your home lighting from anywhere in the world.
It also doubles up in terms of functionality, with users getting real-time notifications, ability to set schedules and share with family members.
In the last few years, Google Assistant’s popularity has broken records with many services integrating into the Assistant. myQ happens to be one of them.
For years, people have successfully used the voice assistant with Chamberlain myQ. Having said that, the myQ app seems to be currently having an issue working with Google Assistant.
Whenever users tried to control myQ device using voice commands they were greeted with a ‘myQ no longer available on Google Assistant’ error.
Initially, users thought that myQ was done providing integration service with Google Assistant.
But as it turns out, myQ is having a service disruption issue with Google Assistant integration.
The company has updated its website to reflect the status of service on its support page. However, there does not seem to be any update on when the issue will be fixed.
In the meantime, you can make use of the myQ app to control your myQ garage door opener.
We hope myQ app developers fix the issue with Google Assistant so that users can start giving voice commands to control their devices like before.
Update 1 (September 16)
06:14 pm (IST): A fresh report indicates that the MyQ app is broken yet again despite Chamberlain’s claim earlier that it had fixed the problem. As usual, we’ll post an update if and when there are any further developments.
Update 2 (September 17)
02:14 pm (IST): The above-mentioned issue has since been fully addressed, at least according to the Chamberlain Group.
