    I have accidentally removed Kodi from my amazon fire stick via the remote control. Is there a easier way to install it back on or do I need to follow all these instructions
    Thank you

    When you say an Amazon account but then “a free trial is available,” do you mean you need to have a Prime account to download the downloader?? I don’t have a Prime account anymore but just looking for something reasonably priced to play Kodi on my smaller TV (I got a smartTV recently, and the old box I used to play Kodi cannot support Matrix, so I have a dormant TV–sacrilege! LOL)

    I guess I’m a complete idiot. How am I supposed to “type” a website on the download app when there is no keyboard or text to type remote option with on my TV, does everyone have a wireless keyboard or something? I’m totally lost. You can’t possibly have the firestick plugged into your computer as it is HDMI… wth

      Try clicking in the box and the keyboard will pop up.

    Super easy! I had it installed and ready to play a movie in less than 15 mins! Thanks so much!

    The only thing is that it doesn’t show up on my main homepage. Does anyone have a solution?

    Thanks!

    THANK YOU!!! I previously had this jailbroken for my mother and father before my mother decided to update the system and cause Kodi to fail. This was so easy to follow and works great. I really appreciate you posting this. Thank you again!!!
