Some new features have been added to Kodi 18 Leia, which I have listed below in this blog post.
If you have Kodi 17 Krypton installed on your device then no need to rush as Kodi 17 is still working fine and some of the Kodi Addons or Builds might not be compatible with Kodi 18 Leia.
But there are many other Addons and Builds available for Kodi 18 Leia that you can install and watch the content that you may be looking for.
You might also face some compatibility issues with the different operating systems like Android versions below V5 are not compatible with Kodi 18.
The installation process of Addons on Kodi 18 is almost the same as that of Kodi 17 with a few screen changes and another step to verify the dependencies that will be installed.
The best and easy way to update Kodi on Android device is through PlayStore. You just need to Sing In into PlayStore, search for Kodi and then update.
If you have other devices like Mac or Windows then you can uninstall the current version of Kodi and then install the latest version from official Kodi website.
In this Blog Post, I will show you both methods on how you can update Kodi through Google Play Store and through official Kodi website.

If you plan on streaming content via any of the Kodi addons we recommend using a VPN. A VPN will anonymize your online activity, protect you from spying ISPs, and allow you access to geo-blocked add-ons and content.
We personally use IPVanish VPN and highly recommend it. You can Sign Up For IPVanish VPN Here or if you want to know more about why to use a VPN with Kodi Click Here
