The Wink Home Automation System, available at Home Depot, allows you to control multiple devices, from different manufacturers from a single Home Automation System. The Wink System is a internet based system that allows you to control different systems within your home from a single application. You can control your lights, door locks, heating and cooling system and even your Chamberlain MyQ compatible garage door opener.
The Wink System is not compatible with the LiftMaster MyQ garage door openers, but is compatible with the Chamberlain MyQ garage door openers.
To connect your Chamberlain MyQ garage door opener to Wink, you must first create an account through Chamberlain MyQ and connect your garage door opener to the account you created. Next you must open the Wink app and sign in. You will then tap add product, then tap “garage door” then tap “MyQ garage door”. Then follow the instructions in the Wink app.
