Harmony App & Harmony Hub
Been using this app and the hub for a few years now. It has always worked well. I hope Logitech keeps updating the app to keep it current with Apple and with entertainment hardware. 👍👍👍
Absolutely Terrible
This app is useless. The remote when it is working is great, however the app constantly tries to download and install software, doesn’t work at all. Waste of time.
Harmony is not what it used to be
Harmony remotes used to be the cadillacs of universal remotes. Now they can’t even control my tv wich is exactly the jobs that it’s supposed to do.
Terribly slow app, keeps trying to sync to cloud everytime you try to do anything (why does it have to sync to cloud just to open my tv?) then it doesn’t work and throws an error so i end up using my original tv remote.
Sometimes the hub freezes so you press the activity button multiple times because you think it didn’t get the commands then after 10-15 seconds it unfreeze and does everything at the same time so my tv turns on and off like 4 times.
Logitech discontinued the Harmony lineup but said we would still get updates and support yet they clearly don’t care about maintaining the harmony servers so they can run properly.
This is exactly why cloud devices are a terrible idea . If the company decides they don’t care about a product you paid for anymore, it just becomes a paperweight and there’s nothing you can really do

The most frustrating app. Harmony was better on Mac or PC
Configuration shouldn’t be as tedious and FRUSTRATING as this, especially for such an expensive product. I simply had to change my TV terminal, it’s been 3 hours and i’m still not able to do so. Fake errors with the Logitech Server that seems “OK” online, cannot simply connect to the hub or reset it properly without accessing its settings by LUCK. This is the absolute worst experience with a product. Harmony was WAY BETTER AND EASIER CONNECTED TO USB ON A COMPUTER!

Complete garbage
Lord help you if you have to change the network settings. Ridiculously bad.
Unable to access simple features
Overall the remote app works with all my paired devices, however I’d like to add a custom wallpaper to my harmony remote and can’t seem to do so from the app. Also, the layout of device controls on the app is baffling, I have to swipe through multiple pages to do simple tasks, could you possible add an edit function so I can have the controls I use regularly on one screen?

Update = Broken
Version 5.7.14 may have broken my hub setup. When I try to set up my hub (that I’ve had for years with no issue) the loading icon continues forever without communicating an error. The red light on the hub stays red and I can’t access any of my account data through the app or on my PC. What the heck did this update achieve? Everything worked great for years and then suddenly - nothing. Red light of death. Not cool. Fix it.

A very flexible and long lasting appliance
I have been using the same harmony hub and remote for nearly 10 years and it has been able to adapt to two sound system upgrades and the addition of smart lighting. Probably the most comprehensive speeds product updating of any of my many smart devices. This app is critics for its UI complexity but the managed environment itself is complex.
My main point is that it keeps on working, year after year and does not suffer from built-in technical obsolescence. That is worth a lot these days.

No longer works with my account
After almost 10 years the account associated with my hubs are no longer connected. No changes can be made through the app, it needs to be done through the PC application and synced manually.
Looks like logitech is finding ways to finally end all support for their harmony products, just like how they killed their logitech alert systems and ended up with a class action lawsuit.

Refuses to Stay Connected to My Network
I have tried about 10 times today and hsve had go delete all devices and settings including resetting the hub just to enter everything again, get an Activity set up then the app circles back to try and re-connect to my Network. That fails and I am forced to start over. Incredibly disappointing and frustrating. I expect better but am not surprised. Logitech consistently produces solid hardware but their software has always lagged behind going back more than a decade minimum.
I completely agree with DaPlatter’s review
