Nexx Garage NXG-200 smart Wi-Fi remote control garage opener

$79.99 $100.00 $20 off
The NXG-200 is Nexx's second-generation garage door opener. The first, the NXG-N100b, is only a couple bucks cheaper with the above deal. You're getting some great feature improvements for hardly much more money.
The great thing about these smart controllers is that they don't require you to fully replace your current garage door opener. All you have to do is head to the Nexx website and use the manufacturer and model of your garage door opener to make sure it's compatible. You can even use the picture guide on that page to manually test for compatibility.
With the NXG-200, you'll be able to control your garage door without even getting up from your couch. Use an app on your phone to open, close, schedule, and monitor the garage door. Connect the Nexx device to a 2.4GHz Wi-Fi network so you can also connect it to your smart home. The NXG-200 works with Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant, and Apple HomeKit, which means you can close the door with your voice while watching TV after you get a notification on your phone letting you know someone left it open.
The device also has Bluetooth connectivity, which means you can control it even if the internet goes down. Nexx's "Just Drive" geofencing technology lets you make the garage door automatically open just by driving up to it. The whole thing installs in just 10 minutes, and it's covered by a one-year warranty.
