Out of the box, this is true. However, it can be modified to work well without the need for MyQ app integration, which I view as a crutch that could be totally invalidated on any whim by the MyQ folks.
I purchased a Craftsman 57918 1 Horsepower DieHard® Battery Backup Ultra-Quiet Belt Drive Garage Door Opener (which is a Liftmaster opener, just privately branded.) It has MyQ. I did not want to use a one-purpose app to control the garage door, so I looked to integrate it to my ST.
I used this walk-thru here to success.
I didn’t want to solder the original push button, so I purchased this button in addition to the kit, soldered it and left it in the ceiling with the GoControl.
It works great! The only bummer is that I cannot execute the open/close garage routine from my Google Home mini as it’s a restricted command. But that’s not a functionality knock, just an integration hiccup.
