In April 2021, Logitech announced the decision to discontinue the manufacturing of Harmony remotes. Computer peripheral manufacturer Logitech acquired it in May 2004 for US$29 million, turning Harmony remotes into a worldwide phenomenon.

The company later changed its name to Intrigue Technologies and was located in Mississauga, Ontario, Canada. The Harmony remote control was originally created in 2001 by Easy Zapper, a Canadian company, and first sold in November 2001. On April 10, 2021, Logitech announced that they would discontinue Harmony Remote manufacturing. The line includes universal remote products designed for controlling the components of home theater systems (including televisions, set-top boxes, DVD and Blu-ray players, video game consoles) and other devices that can be controlled via infrared, as well as newer smart home hub products that can be used to additionally control supported Internet of things (IoT) and Smart home products, and allow the use of mobile apps to control devices. I' ve attached the screenshots of where it fails.Logitech Harmony is a line of remote controls and home automation products produced by Logitech. It shows as "Connecting" for some time before inevitably showing " Couldn't pair". It is failing right after the pairing prompt pops up. Maybe a new firmware update botched this for me, but I'm looking to see if others have seen this issue. The kicker is that this worked before and now my Chromecast can't complete the pairing process. I've even tried another Chromecast in my home first, factory reset it second, and still the pairing process failed.

I've validated that my Logitech Harmony Hub can connect to other Bluetooth devices, such as my phone with no issue. I've made sure both software and firmware are updated on all devices. I have performed a factory reset on the Logitech Hub and the Chromecast. I've configured this integration before, but after reconfiguring my setup, the Chromecast will no longer pair to my Harmony Logitech Harmony Hub. The instructions are pretty straightforward.

I'm following the instructions below to configure the integration with my 4K Chromecast: I am currently configuring my Logitech Harmony Elite Control to work with my home theater setup.
