  • To do so, install the Harmony app on your smartphone.
  • It will guide you through the connection process.
  • You can download the app directly from the Google Play Store.
  • Next, connect your PS4 console to a smart TV.
  • Connect your PS4, smart TV, and hub to the same wireless network. 
  • Add your PS4 to the hub manually via Bluetooth if it could not pick the Wi-Fi connection.
  • On your smartphone, launch the Harmony app and navigate to Devices.
  • Tap the Edit Devices button and select the Add icon.
  • From the displayed list, tap the Entertainment Device button.
  • Under the Manufacturer section, select Sony.
  • Enter ‘PlayStation 4’ in the search field and tap the Add button.
  • Now, navigate to the PS4 console and choose the inputs.
  • Before setting up the activity, make sure that all the devices are connected properly.
  • In the PS4 main dashboard, select Settings and go to Devices.
  • Select Bluetooth Settings and search for the Harmony Keyboard.
  • Select it from the search result (if it appears).
  • If it fails to show up, push the pairing button located at the back of the hub.
  • Now, the app will prompt you to perform a test run.
  • Select it to verify whether everything has been set properly.
  • Once you have built up the PS4 activity, enable Harmony for Alexa.
  • The Harmony hub will work well with Alexa and Google Assistant.
  • Make sure that you have properly linked all the devices with your Logitech account.
  • Finally, you control the PS4 console using Alexa by saying turn on/off PS4 or OK Google.
