myQ Smart Garage Security Camera Review: Worth the $18.99?

The myQ Smart Garage Camera dropped to $18.99 — a sharp price for garage-specific monitoring, but it works best if you're already in the myQ ecosystem.

What you're actually getting here

This is a purpose-built garage interior camera from Chamberlain, the company behind myQ smart garage openers. It lets you peek inside your garage through the myQ app — useful for the classic 'did I leave the door open?' moment, or just keeping an eye on what's stored in there. At under $19, it undercuts most general-purpose indoor cameras while adding garage-specific context like door status alongside the video feed. It's not trying to be a whole-home security camera, and that focused scope is actually part of the appeal.

The part worth knowing before you buy

The catch is ecosystem lock-in. This camera shines if you already own a myQ-compatible garage door opener, because the app ties the video feed to your door activity in a genuinely useful way. If your opener isn't myQ-compatible, you're paying for a narrow-use camera that competes against more versatile options at similar prices. Also worth checking: myQ has historically gated some features like video history behind a subscription. Confirm what's included free before assuming the full feature set is yours at the $18.99 sticker.

Current deal price: $18.99 on Amazon (price/availability can change).
