Installing Kodi on any Android device is available in only a few steps which we will provide below.
In this tutorial, we are installing Kodi on both an Android TV device and a Stock Android device. See our resource guide below if you are unfamiliar with the differences in Android operating systems.
Stock Android vs Android TV Operating System
Android TV devices include the NVIDIA Shield, Chromecast with Google TV, MECOOL boxes, and more.
Stock Android devices include Android tablets, phones, and generic Android TV Boxes that run Stock Android OS.
Kodi is one of the most popular resources for streaming VOD content, live channels, hosting files, and much more.
With Kodi installed on your device along with compatible addons and builds, users can access tons of content absolutely free.
We have included Kodi in our list of Most Popular APKs for Movies and TV Shows.
As of now, Kodi 19.4 is the most stable release and the video tutorial below will show you how to install this version.
You must have Android Operating System 5.0 or higher installed on your Android box in order to run Kodi.
Since most Android Boxes come pre-loaded with Google Play Store, installing Kodi is a breeze.
