In addition to that, I’ve also paired a Harmony Hub with an Amazon Echo Dot in order to use Alexa voice control on certain activities. The 880 can control 15 different devices, and I’ve gotten it to where I can conveniently access most important commands and macros from the buttons and keypad without needing to dig through menu pages on the LCD screen. For a physical remote, I still favor the older Harmony 880 model because I prefer tactile buttons over an illuminated touchscreen when I’m sitting in the dark watching a movie or TV show. Some background: I have a couple of different Harmony units in use right now. As much as I greatly appreciate their broad range of device support, sometimes I find the limitations of Harmony’s programming options extremely frustrating. I’ve used Harmony universal remote controls for years.
