With 1080p HD video, real-time motion alerts, night vision, and myQ app integration, it turns your garage into a smarter, safer environment — all from the palm of your hand.
Let’s explore everything this powerful, WiFi-enabled garage camera has to offer.

Clean, Modern Design for Seamless Integration
The myQ Smart Garage HD Camera is designed with simplicity and versatility in mind. Its clean, minimalist aesthetic and compact form make it a subtle addition to any garage interior. Wall or ceiling mounted, it doesn’t interfere with shelving, storage, or your garage door system.
Thanks to its universal mounting bracket and adjustable viewing angle, installation is straightforward — no need for professional help. It also plugs into a standard outlet, so there’s no complicated wiring involved.
Crystal-Clear 1080p HD Video
What sets the myQ Smart Garage HD Camera apart from lower-end options is its 1080p full HD video resolution. Whether you’re keeping an eye on valuable tools, deliveries, or just checking if the garage door is closed, the live feed offers crisp, clear visuals — day or night.
The camera’s wide-angle lens captures a broad field of view, letting you monitor your garage’s entire width. This is especially useful in two-car garages or when you want visibility over entry doors, windows, and shelves all at once.
Night Vision for Round-the-Clock Awareness
Garages are often dimly lit, and many security incidents happen at night. The myQ camera includes infrared night vision, enabling you to see clearly in total darkness. It automatically shifts from day to night mode, capturing movement and detail regardless of lighting conditions.
Whether you’re in bed or out of town, you’ll be able to see what’s happening in your garage with confidence.

Real-Time Motion Detection Alerts
One of the standout features of the myQ Smart Garage HD Camera is its intelligent motion detection. When activity is detected, the system sends real-time alerts to your smartphone via the myQ app.
This is ideal for:
- Notifying you when your garage is unexpectedly accessed
- Alerting you to package deliveries or service visits
- Providing insight into movement during nighttime or work hours
You can adjust motion sensitivity to avoid unnecessary notifications and focus on meaningful activity.
myQ Smartphone App: Total Control in Your Pocket
At the heart of this system is the myQ app, which acts as your command center. From the app, you can:
- View live or recorded video from the camera
- Receive and manage motion notifications
- Record clips and download them
- Communicate with garage openers and additional myQ devices
The app offers an intuitive interface, and users familiar with other Chamberlain or LiftMaster products will find integration seamless. You can also set alerts for specific times, share access with family members, and control your garage remotely — all in one place.

Two-Way Audio with Clear Communication
The camera features built-in two-way audio, allowing you to hear what’s happening in your garage and speak directly through your smartphone. This is useful if:
- Someone enters the garage and you want to speak to them
- You’re guiding a family member or contractor
- You want to deter an intruder
Audio is crisp and works well in typical garage acoustics, which are often echoey. The combination of live video and voice adds another layer of interaction that elevates this beyond passive monitoring.
Cloud Video Storage (Subscription-Based)
The myQ system offers cloud storage options for those who want to save, review, and share past video clips. While live streaming and alerts are free, recorded video history and saved events require a subscription.
Plans are reasonably priced and offer varying lengths of storage. This is ideal for anyone wanting to document deliveries, record garage activity for legal or insurance purposes, or share clips with others.

Integration with Smart Garage Door Openers
What makes the myQ Smart Garage HD Camera stand out from typical indoor cameras is its native compatibility with myQ-enabled garage door openers. When combined, you get complete control of your garage ecosystem:
- Monitor the garage interior while opening/closing the door
- Receive alerts if the door is left open too long
- View who entered and when — all in sync with video evidence
This integration streamlines security and access management for modern homes.
Garage-Specific Security, Done Right
Unlike general-purpose security cameras, the myQ Smart Garage HD Camera is engineered for garage environments. This means:
- It tolerates temperature fluctuations
- It adapts well to low-light conditions
- It’s optimized for WiFi performance in hard-to-reach garage spaces
Because of these specialized features, it’s more reliable and consistent than repurposing a home indoor cam for the garage.
Easy Setup and Installation
Installing the camera takes under 20 minutes. You’ll need:
- A power outlet near your mounting area
- A stable 2.4GHz WiFi connection
- A smartphone with the myQ app
Once powered on, the app walks you through syncing the camera. Wall anchors and mounting hardware are included, and positioning the lens for your ideal view is quick and simple.
Conclusion
If you’re already using or considering a myQ garage door opener, adding the myQ Smart Garage HD Camera is a no-brainer. Even as a standalone device, it offers high-quality HD video, real-time monitoring, motion alerts, and a dedicated app experience that feels polished and reliable.
While cloud recording is a paid feature, the core functions — live view, alerts, audio — are included with no monthly fee, which adds value. And if you’re concerned about your garage’s vulnerability, this device transforms it into one of the most secure zones in your home.
