Kodi, as most of you know, is an ultimate open source software for streaming things from the internet. There are numerous advantages of KODI, which I cannot sum up in one sentence. But the best one is that it can be used to stream video on almost every device. Previously we had written a tutorial on installing KODI on firestick without pc.

KODI is a new name given to the XBMC (Xbox Media Center). Since XBMC involved hardware configuration & KODI doesn’t the name was changed to match the product. KODI delivers best results when streamed on Smart TVs with a large screen. HD streaming is the reason, which makes the picture quality impeccable. Moreover, KODI is an open source software, for which new add-ons are released regularly. And above all, everything including KODI is completely free to use.
KODI, I would say, won’t be much use without proper add-ons. One should be looking forward to installing the best KODI add-ons to make the most out of it. We will here, use the most popular KODI add-on, Exodus to explain how to use KODI. Most of the add-ons work more or less the same way. Guides to install the best KODI add-ons are, however, available on our blog which you can refer to. Don’t stress much if you aren’t able to understand what an add-on is, you could relate KODI to a smartphone and add-ons to the apps which we install in a smartphone.
