2. How to Install Genesis Kodi Addon
3. Wrap up

If you have been using Kodi for quite some time, then you probably know Genesis Kodi Addon. This legendary addon was shut down a few years back, and it has since been forked by various addons, including Elysium and Genesis Reborn.

Genesis has however made a comeback and you can now add it on your Kodi. You can then use it to watch the best of Movies and TV Shows free and in HD. In this guide, we’ll show you how to install Genesis Kodi addon.

This tutorial works for both Kodi 18 Leia and Kodi Krypton 17.6 users.

Stream Safely!

To provide the content that you’ll be able to stream, Genesis Kodi addon scrapes for publicly available sources from the internet.

Most of these streams are usually pirated, and streaming of copyrighted content can land you in trouble with the authorities and copyright organizations.

For this reason, we’d like to advise you to always use a reliable VPN like IPVanish whenever you want to stream using Genesis Kodi or any other third-party addon. Using a VPN that doesn’t keep any logs will keep you safe from DMCA notices and the snooping eyes of the ISP.

With IPVanish, you’ll also be able to stream in HD, circumvent geo-restrictions, and avoid ISP throttling among other benefits on all your devices with one single subscription! To help you start we managed a special discount of 81% for all our readers.

    I just installed Genesis and it is working well . In Genesis, less keystrokes plus use of he context menu are required to set the Movie, TV, Episodes and Seasons view types, than in other video add ons. Although I have other video add on that I like and use regularly, I’m glad to see Genesis back., for however long that may be, and I will have it for use with my other add ons.
