Garage Door Monitor SmartApp Failure

[johnconstantelo]

@Paradise488

it is the Garage Door Monitor offered by “smartthings” to be found in the “add SmartApp” page of my phone application (the new application - as opposed to the OLD application which is no longer supported)

I don’t see it either, anywhere.

@Paradise488

but it does not appear to have a mechanism to make that report after the door has been open for an hour (or anything for that matter)

If you’re looking for a smartapp that tells you something has been left open for a period of time, take a look here:

Door left unlocked notification (2020)

I ended up having to put together my own app to do this until ST can do it within there own app. The one I use the most that replicates being notified for something being left open, on, or unlocked too long is a parent/child smartapp: (you’ll want all of these) Parent: (Save and Publish) https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jsconstantelos/SmartThings/master/smartapps/jsconstantelos/alerts-left-it-on-open-or-unlocked-parent.src/alerts-left-it-on-open-or-unlocked-parent.groovy Left it On Child: (just Save) https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jsconstantelos/SmartThings/master/smartapps/jsconstantelos/alerts-left-it-on-child.src/alerts-left-it-on-child.groovy Left it Open Child: (just Save) https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jsconstantelos/SmartThings/master/smartapps/jsconstantelos/alerts-l…

FAQ: Get a Notification if Something is Left On, Open, or Unlocked for X Minutes (2021)

People frequently ask “how can I get a notification if a contact sensor is open for 10 minutes?“ Or “how can I get a notification if my door is unlocked for more than five minutes?“ Etc. April 2021 Update This has now been added to the official features when you create an automation using the + in the upper right of the main screen, at least for some devices. You will be able to send either a push notification or a text message. [image] [image] In case you have a use case/device which does not offer this option in the official features, over the years the community has developed multiple ways of accomplishing this. Some require paying a license fee for third-party app, but then are very easy to use. Others are free but have a more complicated set up. Because this is 2021, please lim…

Curious…I am in California? (Maybe they make special codes for those of us living in California).

For emissions, yup, smartapps, nope.

@Paradise488

Is that limited by platform??

Nope.
