I agree. It's 2022. I'm not reaching up there like a caveman.
I haven’t gotten the holiday 2022 update yet….. but using the app to close it is annoying because (as a safety feature) it beeps for a few seconds before closing since there’s no guarantee that there’s line of sight when you close via the app.
Also, when using my phone close to the driveway, it’s near the edge of my house Wi-Fi coverage so it’s slow to connect. Sometimes, I disconnect the Wi-Fi on my phone and force cellular data. Again, this takes more time , which is infuriating when I’m in a rush to leave or get inside the house.

Nope, just detached metal garages with some home made gates with openers.Wow! Big house
I agree the homelink since it does not know the state of the door is stupid.
We stopped using the auto open/close with home in both of our teslas because it gets confused if one car is leaving while the other car driving in.
Has anyone tried this with myq to see if multiple teslas on the same account syncs to ensure the door does not close while the other one trying to leave or drive in? “ assume the garage sensor did not trip yet.

No on the trying it yet, but this should not be a problem as the sensor knows the state of the door and will not redo the open command if the door is already opened and vice versa. It is not a toggle back and forth system. Open is open and closed is closed which can only be executed when the door is in the opposite position.
What Tesla really needs to implement when they add back park assist with the vision only system, is to unfold the mirrors again once you clear the garage. I love the auto fold mirrors as you pull into the driveway as my garage is so tight, however on the way out, I have to manually unfold them to have proper use of the mirrors while backing out the rest of the driveway. Since the rear view mirror is so useless, that is just a bit of a hassle. Starting to simply use the backup camera, which maybe I will ultimately just become super comfortable with. Right now I just rally miss the USS functions when pulling in. To be honest, the Model Y should have come with an electronic rear view mirror. You can get these things for $130 now and it would have probably cost tesla $50 a car or less to include.
Why is this not clear? The system knows the garage is already opened from the sensor on the garage door. It knows it, not guesses it. If you send an open command, manually or automatically to the garage door and it is already opened, it does nothing.
There are still some issues though as guys in another thread are saying that the automatic close is not working through the Tesla integration currently. I am going to wait once I actually get the holiday update until they are reporting that bug is fixed before I activate the 7 day free trial to test out fully.

We have a Vivint Alarm system with the MyQ already part of the system for the doors and this integration is a game changer for us. My wife and I both love it and has worked flawlessly the past week. Just don't love the subscription price which is super lame. Our manual opener for whatever reason royally sucks and you have to be right next to the door pushing the button for it to open.

It is the signal that Tesla sends after all, which is just dumb trigger signal just like from the garage clicker. I am not 100% sure if MyQ sends dedicated signal for open and close, but my MyQ App doesn't have that kind of dedicated button. It is just one button on the screen that opens and closes the garage door.
Just curious if you can add it to an app that uses Geofencing like the Google home, IFTTT app, if so, it would do the exact same thing Tesla does for free.

I just hate how they want you to pay a membership fee to use it
Hey Chris, big fan.I just hate how they want you to pay a membership fee to use it
That is exactly why i am looking for a way for a Geofencing app to do this. It's not the price but the fact that Tesla wants money for something that it should already have for free like most cars.
