For several years, Exodus was one of the most-used add-ons by Kodi users. Originally developed by famous Kodi coder TVAddons, Exodus served as a platform where you can view your favorite movies, TV shows, and more from inside Kodi. Even though it is certainly a piracy app, users still loved it globally because of its ease of access and the hard-to-believe flexibility of the platform. Having said that, not everyone loved the TVAddons. The actual development team working on the Kodi platform denied responsibility for Exodus, and other programs and platforms, plus its development team as an application only made for piracy. Still, the users of the apps kept increasing, until recently, two years ago and June to be precise, TVAddons, the Fusion repo, and Exodus were all shut down and disabled.
So if you began using the app recently and all you see is a “No Stream Available,” alert, it is because Exodus no longer exists. While we formerly had 12 or more ways to restore Exodus, sadly, this summer might be the last we will see of it and its team. Even when TVAddons and Fusion returned at the end of July, it felt like the developers were trying to do something new with it, shunning the past of Exodus and abandoning the program to bite the dust. For sometime, it felt as if Kodi fans were hopeless although we have witnessed before how these dead platforms rise again.
Covenant is the recent newbie when we speak about streaming. It functions and even looks like Exodus, ensuring it is a seamless transition for fans of the original Exodus plugin. Yes i know, it is very tedious to set up a brand new streaming service inside Kodi, but if you are fed up of the error messages and miss being able to stream your favorite content through Kodi, it is a must for your entertainment suite. Like other Kodi addons, you will require a brand new repository to get Covenant installed, since it is via a different platform than Exodus.
This is how you can install Covenant via Kodi for unlimited entertainment possibilities:
Installing Covenant
No matter how far back it was since you installed Exodus, you will recollect that you had to install an app repository to download the platform to Kodi. App repositories within Kodi functions like an app store on your mobile device. It is a means of adding more content to your phone, including applications like Exodus and Covenant, and ensure it is simpler to stream content online without needing any reliance on official means via apps like Netflix. There are also several 3rd party apps made for Kodi, leading several users to add 12 or more repositories on their devices at any point in time.
Well, we will engage in the installation of another one onto your phone today. To install Covenant, we’ll require Kodisrael repository to add the app to your phone. Because of the apparent popularity of Covenant, the add-on is frequently added to repositories that allow several apps within their listings that have been removed elsewhere because of copyright strikes, and Kodisrael is not excluded. Adding Kodisrael or any other Covenant-friendly repositories to Kodi is simply like any other repository — you’ll require the source URL that lets you have access to the repo, alongside the corresponding .zip file that gets included automatically from the source. If it has been a long time since you last added a repo to your Kodi instance, or you fancy a refresher, just adhere to these step-by-step instructions for the installation of Kodisrael:
Installing The Kodisreal Repo
Begin by opening up Kodi on any platform you desire. If you are yet to install the app, it is simple to download on several platforms, which includes Windows and Android, where it is listed in the respective app store for the two platforms. You can even locate easily downloadable versions of Kodi on their site for platforms including MacOS, Linux, and Raspberry Pi, alongside a link for jailbroken iOS devices to add to their phones or tablets. And definitely, you are able to also include Kodi in platforms like the Amazon Fire Stick via the side-loading methods. As soon as Kodi is downloaded, ensure it is open to the main display on your platform.
Now, begin by heading into the settings of your device by tapping the gear icon in the top-left corner of your display. If you are making use of a device like the Fire Stick, use your remote to arrow over the settings icon. On MacOS or Windows, you will need to make use of your mouth to double-click on the gear, and on Android and iOS, you can simply click with your finger. When you get to the settings menu, select “File Browser.” It’s the last setting at the bottom of the list. When you open this menu, select “Add source.” This will provide you the option to add a new repository for your apps by making use of a precise URL. This is how we will add the Kodisrael Repo that lets us download Covenant to our Kodi device. Choose this option and add the following URL to the list by choosing “None” on the list- https://kdil.co/repo/
As soon as you add the URL, ensure you rename the URL to something you will easily remember. By defaults, the Kodisrael Repo defaults to “repo,” but this particular name can be altered to whatever you desire. You can also have it renamed whenever you decide by selecting the menu from Kodi’s file browser, making it simple to add, remove, or alter the name on your device. As soon as you have added the repo URL, you can exit the file browser and head to the main menu of Kodi by tapping on the top-left corner banners to get back to your main screen.
Now, from this point, we will have to go to the Add-ons menu on your display. You can locate this on the left banner side of your screen, in the middle of Radio and Pictures on the menu. Add-ons is where you can go to, to install or uninstall specific add-ons and repos from your menu, and it is at this point that we will be able to install Kodisrael repo to your device. Enter the add-on browser by tapping the box icon or selecting “Add-on browser” in the middle of the page if you do not have any add-ons yet. Here you’ll locate 5 different options for the add-on browser. 4 from the top, you’ll view “Install from zip file.” Select that option to have Kodisrael installed. If you have not already activated installations from unknown sources within Kodi, you might receive a message asking you get that over with.
If you’ve ever installed an app from outside sources on Android, you will know one or two things about how this works. Head to the settings menu from the link provided and activate “Unknown Sources” in the installation options. This lets you install content from outside sources on your device. Confirm the prompt gets displayed and click on the menu icon in the top-left corner to get back to the add-on browser. Have “Install from zip file” re-selected and select the link you named in the last step, then choose “kodil.zip.” Your Kodi instance might freeze for a while before reinstating at last, and then you will be able to move your cursor once more.
Installing Covenant From Your Repo
After Kodisrael has been installed on your device, all you need to do after that is download and install Covenant to re-establish access to your preffered movies and television shows. Go back to the add-on browser we talked about above and select “Add from repository” to re-establish access to your library of repositories. You will notice various repositories within the menu, but we’ll be looking for Kodil, the specific repo installed by you above. Just pen Kodil by double-clicking and selecting Video Add-ons at the bottom of the list. Kodisrael has many adds, so you will have to just keep scrolling for you to get the right listing. The list can be accessed in alphabetical order, and as at today, Covenant is fourth from down the list in the C section.
Tap on Covenant to open the app page, then tap on the Install button. Your PC or streaming device will start downloading and installing Covenant onto your computer, this will use up to 45 to 60 seconds. When it is finished, Covenant will be included in your list of apps within Kodi. To have access to it, go to your video add-ons and double-click on Covenant inside the settings menu.
Copyright With Covenant
I hope i have made it clear enough as regards the shutting down of Exodus and TVAddons. Making use of Covenant to stream media online is piracy by most users and you will have to be aware of the risks in streaming content online. Kodi itself is no app made for piracy, and the development team are completely against using the app in such manner. As always, TechVaz does not support or stand for illegal doings, which includes streaming content illegally online, and cannot be held responsible for any bad consequences that anyone is faced with for making use of the service wrongly. Read about your country’s stance on copyright and advice yourself accordingly.
Differences Between Covenant And Exodus
Looking at both, the two platforms are similar, All that is present in Covenant feels the same to what we expect from the likes of Exodus, except the little speed increase. Contents appear like they come from the same sources with the only difference being the “Covenant” logo on the home display of Kodi rather than the Exodus logo. You can still flip through the same lists of movies, and still stream films by selecting from the list, then from the sources offered for each film.
