Through this tutorial, I will show you how to install the Silvo Build on Kodi. This build is compatible with all the Kodi-supported platforms. This includes FireStick, Windows, Mac, iOS, Android, as well as Raspberry Pi, Smart TVs, etc.
Silvo is a neat looking, minimal, yet feature-rich build. You can access various streaming related categories from the home screen, including Movies, TV Shows, Sport, Live TV, Music, Kids, and many more.
The build also lines up the popular or featured content for the chosen media category on the home screen so that you may start streaming quickly. It has several popular Kodi addons as well, which you can access from the video add-ons section.
Silvo Build takes more than 450 MB of storage space. Therefore, sometimes it may get a bit slow on FireStick or other devices with low-specs. For the most part, it works fine. It is quite smooth on computers even if they are equipped with moderate-specs.
This build has been around for quite some time. It gets regular version updates too. Try it!
Attention KODI Users: Read before you continue
Government and ISPs endlessly monitor your online activities using your IP address 35.175.39.36 (exposed to everyone). Kodi is an excellent platform for streaming movies, TV shows, and sports, but streaming copyrighted content can get you into legal trouble.
You should use a reliable Kodi VPN and protect your streaming activities and privacy. A VPN will hide your IP address and bypass government surveillance and geo-restrictions.
I trust and use ExpressVPN, the fastest and most secure Kodi VPN. It's easy to install on any Kodi device, including Amazon FireStick, PCs, and Smartphones. In addition, it offers a 30-day money-back guarantee, and 3 free months with the annual plan.
