this works like a charm… integrated with google as well… 1 to open: google " turn on garage door" works. 2 to close : google “close garage door” works. QUESTION: can it be set to open to: google “open garage door” as its the more natural thing to do instead of telling it to turn on garage door… without using IFTTT ---

Sorry, old post, but I couldn’t resist. You can now use Google Assistant routines and shortcuts to say, “Open/Close Garage door.” This will propagate on all accounts that share Google Home Mini’s in your home. Be aware that this may be a security concern for you to consider. Many developers have deliberately not included automatically opening/unlocking doors in their feature set with smart assistants. When I linked MyQ with Google Assistant originally using their partner subscriptions ($10/year), it did not support opening or closing the garage door (just status which is ridiculous when you think about it). I am assuming this is for security concerns. I think the chances of a thief or someone who might have ill intentions taking advantage of these types of exploits in your home is pretty rare. However, if you do a search you will find that it has already been possible to send inaudible commands to Siri and Alexa ([https://www.nytimes.com/2018/05/10/technology/alexa-siri-hidden-command-audio-attacks.html](https://www.nytimes.com/2018/05/10/technology/alexa-siri-hidden-command-audio-attacks.html)), send commands hidden in music and speech recordings ([https://wccftech.com/study-reveals-that-malicious-google-assistantalexa-and-siri-commands-can-be-hidden-in-music-and-speech-recordings/](https://wccftech.com/study-reveals-that-malicious-google-assistantalexa-and-siri-commands-can-be-hidden-in-music-and-speech-recordings/)), and, more anecdotally, I have had Google Assistant respond to commands sent through walls. ---

For those that are visually challenged, I changed the color in my version that indicates a closed door to something other than the standard blue that implies a device is on. I found that when I was turning devices off, mainly lights, my fingers wanted to tap the blue button and open the garage door, which causes other bad things to happen in armed mode. I used a lime green (#13e86d) instead. attributeState “closed”, label:’${name}’, action:“push”, icon:“st.doors.garage.garage-closed”, backgroundColor:"#13e86d", nextState: “opening” ---

Thanks - this would be very helpful. Where did you place this code? In the SmartApp or Device Handler(s)? This is my first time to add code, so any advice is appreciated! ---

I apologize for the late reply. The change I made is in Line 50 of the MyQ Garage Door Opener device handler, at least the version I am using. ---
