About Kodi
Kodi is a free and open source media player application developed by the Kodi Foundation, a non-profit technology consortium. It is designed with a 10-foot interface for televisions and remote controls, and it lets you manage and play movies, TV shows, music and photos from local storage or the network.
Kodi is available on Windows, macOS, Linux and Android, as well as other hardware platforms. The Android listing shows more than 50 million downloads. Its add-on system adds features such as library scrapers, skins, visualisations and live TV front ends. Kodi 21.3 Omega is the newest stable version in the input data, and the project is already working on Kodi 22 Piers.
It suits people building a home theatre or media centre who like to tweak things. The program is free, GPL licensed and needs no account. Be careful with third-party add-ons: unofficial add-ons that promise pirated content can be unsafe and unlawful, so stick to the official repository.
Install only from the official site or store, and stay with the official add-on repository.
