Controversies and legal
Controversy
In November 2023, the company restricted third-party access to its myQ platform following earlier changes to integrations with external smart home systems. The update affected compatibility with certain third-party applications and open-source platforms. Subsequent reporting noted that these changes limited interoperability with external devices and services. In December 2025, Chamberlain Group left the Connectivity Standards Alliance, the organization responsible for the Matter smart home standard. Subsequent updates further limited compatibility with certain third-party controllers and integrations.
