How to Resolve Issues with Receiving Push or Email Notifications from the myQ App

The system used to process myQ app notifications runs every 60 seconds. It can take up to 60 seconds before an action to create an email or to send a push notification occurs. Your service provider may also add a delay to receive the notification. Typically, most notifications are received within 90 seconds.

 


 

Not Receiving a Push Notification

  1. Ensure You're Logged In: Verify you're logged into your myQ app.

  2. Time Restrictions: Make sure the notification time doesn't exceed midnight. If it does, split the notification time into two separate ones.

    • For example: If you want the rule to run from 10:00 pm to 6:00 am, you must create two rules. The first rule would need to be from 10:00 PM to 11:59 PM and then the second rule would need to be from 12:00 AM to 6:00 AM.

  3. Enable Push Notifications: Check the myQ app settings to confirm push notifications are enabled.

  4. Reinstall the App: Delete the notification, uninstall the app, reinstall it, and recreate the notification.

  5. Device Settings:

    • On Android: Ensure mobile data is enabled.

    • On Apple: Ensure notifications are allowed in the notification center.

Not Receiving Notifications with myQ Garage, myQ Smart Garage Hub, or Smart Garage Control

  1. Replace the Battery: Replace the door sensor battery (3V lithium CR2450).

  2. Verify Sensor Range: Ensure the door sensor is within 30 feet of the hub.

Not Receiving Email Notifications

  1. Check Spam Folder: Look for emails from technical.support@chamberlain.com or technical.support@liftmaster.com.

  2. Enable Email Notifications: Check the myQ app to ensure email notifications are enabled. For assistance, see Enable or Disable Push and Email Notifications for myQ and then operate the device to see if you get a notification.
