## Overview

The Genie Aladdin Connect is a WiFi-enabled garage door controller that lets you monitor, open, and close your garage door remotely via smartphone. Compatible with Alexa and Google Assistant, it provides real-time alerts on door status, supports up to 3 doors with additional sensors, and offers customizable auto-close schedules and virtual keys for trusted access. Easy to install and UL325 compliant, it enhances home security and convenience for the modern connected homeowner.

## Description

For many homeowners, the garage door is the most used entry point to the home – not to mention the largest. Having up-to-date information about who is accessing your garage at any given time can provide immense peace of mind. And being able to operate your garage door from your smart device is the ultimate convenience! Do both of these and more with Genie’s Aladdin Connect smartphone connectivity. This WIFI garage door opener gives you power over your home by monitoring your garage door’s status at all times. If your garage door is opening or closing, Aladdin Connect will alert you – whether the user is authorized or not. Aladdin Connects Security Advantage is the sensor attached to the garage door itself so if an intruder disengaged your system and manually opened your garage door, you would know about it! Aladdin Connect Smart Phone Connectivity is now even smarter, offering new time-based features. These include creating a virtual key, setting a close time for your door, and setting a time frame within which to close your door. This means you can use your garage door controller to provide temporary or permanent access to friends, relatives or service repair workers. You can also ensure that your door gets closed each night by setting it to automatically close at whatever time you choose. You can also set the door to automatically close after it has been left open for a certain amount of time, giving you peace of mind if you’re already on the road and can’t remember if you closed the garage door or not! Plus, the Aladdin Connect is also now compatible with desertcart Alexa and Google Assistant for the ultimate all-around convenience and security. The Genie Aladdin Connect has a free downloadable app, is easy to install and set up, and increases safety by making your garage door smarter and you more aware. Get connected and stay connected with the Aladdin Connect! Your Wi-Fi router must meet this specification: 802.11 b/g/n, 2.4GHz with WPA2 or WPA Security.

Review: Fully featured. Simple install. - TLDR; Works well and much happier with this solution over the originally installed Q competitor. The scenario functions (both schedule and timer) are much more advanced in the Aladdin product, in addition to the Alexa integration not available in the other. Bought the competing Q product first, as it was $20 cheaper (and then realized it was only $5 difference after I bought the mount for it). While that product was a simpler install (pair it as if another remote), it did not connect to Alexa - only controlled via app. I don’t always have my phone in hand so voice control via Alexa is where I see the largest benefits of a “smart” home. After realizing the price was $5 difference I unplugged the other and bought the Aladdin. My door opener is a newer Genie installed last year. The initial setup for both products is very similar. I recommend that you setup the app and complete the linking prior to hardware install. Once the two devices are synced, you can unplug and then mount. The pairing was stored even though it was almost 2 weeks in between the pairing and final install. For install, I’d recommend watching a few of the videos here on desertcart. The written instructions aren’t bad but there are options in install that while noted in the setup sheet, aren’t detailed enough to help differentiate A from B. I had already watched the videos prior to purchase to confirm functionality so I was aware of the options and how I wanted to set mine up. However, if you’re relying just on the simple setup doc, it may be a little too simplified. For the door mount, I used a drywall anchor and one of the existing holes in the garage door frame. Living in the South, I don’t trust sticker mounts. I mounted the sensor lower on the door since I have windows in the top panels. This will also make any future battery replacement easier (no need for a step ladder to reach). Works well. The ceiling mount is what gave me the most pause in thinking where to mount. Be aware of the connecting wires between your main opener and the Aladdin controller - you’ll want to keep those free from any moving parts. I ended up mounting on the same side as the wire inputs to avoid running the wire across the opener itself which avoids any potential snags or pulls. Luckily for me, the ceiling plug was also on that same side. With the controller facing the garage door. I can now feel confident that the garage door is not inadvertently left open overnight. While it is part of our evening routine to check the doors, I no longer have to open door between the house and the garage to check and I’m looking forward to removing it from my mind entirely. Using the saved schedule, have it set to auto close if the door is opened at any point after our normal dinner hour and before we leave for work in the AM. Door will operate normally and auto-close 5 minutes later. You can set the auto close to a timer, rather than a schedule. Meaning, close door after being open for X minutes. However, that doesn’t work for us since my husband likes to putter in the yard and leave the garage open while he does so. As much as I prefer the door closed, the Aladdin gives us both a solution that works for us. We’ve got it set so that if it’s dark outside, door will auto close. Otherwise, he can leave it open while he’s in the yard during the day. The controller gives you the option of setting behavior based on day of the week as well. So you could timer close during the weekdays and schedule close on weekends. We may eventually do that but for now, we are both happy with the setup. Overall much better solution than the competitor. Happy with the control and flexibility it provides.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can you set it up for the app to notify you if the door is left open?**
A: The real answer is "kind of".  As others have stated, it does notify you EVERY time the door opens or closes (which can be somewhat annoying if you have a busy household) and you can always look to see the state of each door (open or closed).  However my need was for the app to AUTOMATICALLY notify me if the door was open after a certain period or for longer than a certain time.  Sadly the current Android app does NOT have this capability (version 1.9.0.68).  Happily the iPhone app (version 2.0.32) DOES have this capability.  I have set mine up to automatically close the door if it is open after 10 PM or for longer than 4 hours no matter the time.  Problem solved, but only with the iPhone app.

**Q: No subscription fee?**
A: There is no subscription fee.

**Q: Why does this require wiring? the chamberlain myq version does not.**
A: Different design between Alladin and MyQ.  MyQ is designed similarly  to a wireless key pad and Alladin Connect is designed similarly to a wired keypad.  I have both installed.  The response time to open or close your door with MyQ is better.  I installed the Alladin with a genie system.  If MyQ is compatible with your system, it has performed much better.

**Q: Does this work with Alexa?**
A: I don’t know I don’t have Alexa, but avoid this item I’ve had it a good 5 to 6 months and has worked a for only 3 days just hangs in my garage doing nothing

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Simple, reliable, and very convenient garage control
*by N***I on January 18, 2026*

Super convenient and reliable. The Genie Aladdin Connect was easy to set up and works flawlessly with my smartphone. I like being able to check the garage door status and control it remotely, which gives real peace of mind. Notifications are timely, and integration has been smooth. Solid product that does exactly what it promises

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Game Changer
*by M***S on January 15, 2026*

This device installs and works perfectly. One day we came home and found the garage door open. We later realized that we had driven away earlier that day and forgot to close the door. I looked for a solution on Amazon and found this for a surprising price. I have a Genie opener so installation and integration were flawless. Download the free Aladdin Connect app and get notifications every time your door is opened or closed. Also control your door from anywhere, letting a friend or family member into the house without giving them the remote code or the key to the house. Another advantage is that Amazon inside garage delivery works with this as well, for important or expensive deliveries. We are very happy with this purchase and it's price. Peace of Mind..
