For the old integration, we had to create custom routines to avoid saying “Hey Google, ask Harmony to …” and again, since we cannot share our custom routines with our family, we had to recreate them, for everyone.With this update, we expect Logitech Harmony now to be part of the home control devices (like our lights, thermostats, cameras, etc) which we can share with the Google Home apps new “household” feature. The old (aka “retired” or “red”) integration, required to set up the Logitech Harmony “link” for every user when using voice match.This is basically a summary of the observations we were discussing in the comment section of the old post(s) above: What has changed?īefore we dive into the setup, a couple of remarks on why this is an important update. You will also find an overview of Google’s ready-made routines, custom routines, and scheduled routines. Maybe the old setup can help in your case. If the new update is not available in your country yet, or you don’t like the blue Harmony service and prefer the red retired one, please see our older post here: Logitech Harmony and Google Assistant: Setup and Voice Commands. You need to complete the Harmony setup first before you can configure the Google integration. In case you have not set up your Harmony devices, activities and favorites yet, please refer to our post here: Logitech Harmony: a Hub and it’s Elite, Ultimate, Companion. How to use our new Harmony Integration?.
