They were great! First repair guy was great (door was too bad to repair) & the installation guys were great! They are now my go-to garage company.
Sometimes you just need to let the technician do the job you called them to do.
Quite frankly if it were me I would gladly entertain you with conversation and bill you my hourly loaded labor charge.

Anyone in the villages know of a smart garage door system that will work with the MVP garage door opener? We are looking for one that has an app that will allow you to open/shut garage door from a remote site. Thanks in advance.

It looks like this product is compatible with most Linear controllers, which is the company that bought MVP.

Amazon.com

Check the compatibility document that can be downloaded from the Amazon website.

I have the Meross MSG100. $20+. Works fine.

Installation is fairly easy. I used spare conductors in the existing cabling so no new wires across the ceiling.

It may be helpful to think about the rest of your home automation (present & future) and choose a compatible brand. Good luck.

WARNING!! about Allstar and probably all of those installed in the villages. They come come with a preinstalled simple standard code used by the builders. Bought an 8 year old villa, noticed it when changing the code and sure enough it never got deleted or changed. Meaning anyone knowing the code could open the door. Check the Allstar instructions that should have come with the house.

I'm confused. What code are you referring to? Unless you have an outside number pad, there is no number code, just the programming of the remote control devices and the inside wall console. In my neighborhood, the builder did not provide an outside number pad on the new houses. You had to install that yourself.
