I purchased the Alladin Genie garage door thinking they would play nice with Home Assistant about 8 months or so ago. Sounds like the Smart Things app requires an update every 24 hours so the only way to really get the Alladin Genie Garage Doors to play nicely with Home Assistant is Homebridge and the plug in is that correct? I have the Homebridge add on but I can’t open the webui so I’m trying to see if maybe there is another option.
It sounds like you’ve been trying to integrate your Alladin Genie garage door with Home Assistant for a while now. Since the Smart Things app requires frequent updates, using Homebridge with the appropriate plugin seems like a viable solution. If you’re having trouble accessing the Homebridge web UI, you might want to check your configuration settings or try restarting the Homebridge service. Alternatively, you could explore other plugins or methods, such as using OpenGarage or Zooz relays, which some users have found success with.

If your opener used simple closed contact for open /close, the best choice is esphome. You can get an esp device with a relay or something like this
