I have automated my whole house and every device is a smart device. I can ask what the status of my garage doors are without opening an app. I can trigger to unlock my interior garage door when my garage door opens. I can create a routine that checks if my garage door opens while I’m outside of my geofenced area and automatically close the door. You can’t do any of this with myQ.
Even if you don’t have a smart home, why not start building 1 when you want to make a function (like opening and closing the garage doors or checking if they are closed while you are thousands of miles away) smart. After the garage doors, then you can easily do your sprinkler controller, your house thermostat, your door locks, lights, then when you want to get more involved, your outdoor grill, refrigerator and stove, water sensors, timers for lights, on and on.

Our house is more automated than most, to include sprinklers etc. I do use MyQ and it works for our purposes although has the noted limitations. What are you using for garage door control?
