New smart app to link the virtual/simulated garage door device with two actual devices

@Lgkahn

the problem is the virtual garage device type would have to do that… not the smart app… and one device type cannot access another device type ie say to check the status of the contact… otherwise you would not need this smartapp at all. When i get a chance i will look at it more to see if i can figure something out. i could continually poll but i am superficially avoiding that… once the app gets the notification that the door state changes it updates immediately.

Yes, I agree it’s sufficient the way it is. Thanks again for your help!
