How to Install POV Kodi Addon for Unlimited Streaming (February 2025)

In this article, I’ll guide you through the process of installing the POV Kodi addon. The instructions provided here are applicable to a wide range of devices, including Nvidia Shield, Amazon Fire TV, Windows PCs, Mac PCs, Android phones, and more. For this demonstration, I’m using a FireStick Lite with Kodi 19 Matrix.

Before we go the guide let’s start with brief introdection about POV Kodi Addon

What Is POV?

Looking to stream free movies and TV shows on your Kodi app? It’s time to install the popular POV addon. Available through the Kodifitzwell repository, POV is your go-to source for accessing a vast library of free TV shows, movies, documentaries, and more.

With POV, you can easily discover new TV shows, movies, and even explore content related to your favorite actors and filmmakers. This addon also allows you to curate your own collection of favorite content and create custom lists tailored to your preferences.

Overall, POV stands out as one of the top Kodi addons for streaming free TV shows and movies.

Is POV Safe & Legal?

Before installing and using POV, it’s crucial to understand the safety and legality aspects of the addon.

From a safety perspective, POV seems to be fine. I’ve personally used the addon and didn’t encounter anything suspicious. However, I can’t guarantee that POV is 100% safe, as we at FST aren’t security experts. Since this is a third-party addon, it’s impossible to be entirely certain.

That said, I conducted a quick test on the POV repository’s zip file, and it came back clean. Here’s the proof:

On the flip side, we don’t have the resources to conduct a thorough legality check on the content available through POV. Therefore, I can’t definitively say whether POV is legal or illegal.

Given this uncertainty, I highly recommend using a VPN service like ExpressVPN. This will help you stay protected from any potential safety or legality issues, allowing you to enjoy your streaming experience without worry.

How to Install POV Kodi Addon

POV is a third-party Kodi addon available through the Kodifitzwell repository. Installing it requires following a series of steps, which I’ve divided into three Sections to make the process easier to follow. Let’s dive in.

Sections 1: Enable Unknown Sources on Kodi

Before you can install the Kodifitzwell repository and access the POV addon, you need to enable unknown sources on Kodi. This step is crucial, as it allows you to load third-party repositories like Kodifitzwell. Here’s how to enable unknown sources on your Kodi app.

On the Kodi screen, select the above Settings.

Choose System.

In the left-hand panel, scroll down to the Add-ons tab. Then, in the right-hand panel, toggle the Unknown Sources option to ON.

A warning will appear; click Yes.

Section 2: Install the Repository with POV

To access the POV Kodi addon, you’ll need to install the Kodifitzwell repository, where it is hosted.

Follow these steps to install the Kodifitzwell repository on your Kodi app:

On your Kodi screen, click Settings icon.

Open File manager.

Select Add source.

Note: If you have many sources already added in File Manager, the Add source option will be at the end of the list.

When the Add file source window appears, click on <None>.

Enter the URL for the Kodifitzwell repository: https://tiny.one/kodifitzwell and click OK.

Note: I’ve shortened the official URL of Kodifitzwell for easier entry. However, we are not affiliated with the Kodifitzwell repository. This URL points directly to the original source.

To name the source, select the input box under Enter a name for this media source.

Enter a name and click OK to continue.

Note: I’m using the default name kodifitzwell because it’s easy to remember.

You’ll see the source has been added to the list, go back to the Kodi Settings page and select Add-ons.

Choose the Install from zip file option.

A warning message about updates will appear on your screen; click Yes to proceed.

Note: This warning prompt appears only on Kodi 19 Matrix.

Select the repo name you’ve set from the Install from zip file list – in my case, it’s kodifitzwell.

Click on repository.kodifitzwell-X.X.X.zip.

Note: X represents the version of the repository. Currently, the version is 0.0.1, but it may change in the future.

Once the installation is successful, you’ll receive a notification saying “kodifitzwell repository add-on installed.”

Section 3: Install POV

Now that the Kodifitzwell repository is installed, it’s time to use it to install the POV Kodi addon.

On the Add-ons page, select Install from repository.

Scroll down and select kodifitzwell repository.

Click on Video add-ons.

Choose POV from the list.

The POV dashboard will appear on your screen; click Install.

Wait for Kodi to download and install POV.

After a few seconds, you’ll receive a notification that the POV Add-on installed.

Congratulations! You have successfully installed the POV addon on your Kodi app.

Before you start watching with Kodi addons or builds, it’s crucial to understand that your streaming activities on Kodi are visible to your ISP and government authorities. This means that accessing copyrighted content such as free movies, TV shows, live TV, and sports could potentially lead to legal issues.

Fortunately, there is a reliable way to keep your streaming activities private. By using a good VPN for Kodi, you can ensure that your online activities are hidden from your ISP and the government. A VPN will mask your actual IP address, which is currently 2400:adc3:12c:e600:bcd3:880f:e0ab:5a62, helping you avoid online surveillance, ISP throttling, and content geo-restrictions.

I personally use and highly recommend NordVPN, which is known for being fast, secure, and compatible with all kinds of streaming apps and devices.

NOTE: We do not support or encourage the violation of copyright laws. However, sometimes it can be difficult to distinguish between legitimate and unauthorized sources. If you accidentally stream content from an illegitimate source, it could lead to potential legal issues.

Before you start streaming on Kodi, it’s essential to secure your online activities with a reliable VPN. Here’s how to set up NordVPN for Kodi in three easy steps:

Step 1: Subscribe to NordVPN HERE. NordVPN offers a 30-day money-back guarantee, allowing you to try the service risk-free. If you’re not satisfied within the first 30 days, you can request a full refund.

Step 2: Click HERE to download and install the NordVPN app on your streaming device. If you’re using a FireStick, specific installation instructions are available starting with Step 4 below.

Step 3: Open the NordVPN app and click the Connect button to establish a VPN connection. Once connected, your streaming activities will be secure, providing you with privacy and access to content from around the globe.

By using NordVPN, you’ll protect your online privacy and ensure a safe and unrestricted streaming experience. Enjoy your content with peace of mind!

Step 4: Navigate to the home screen of your Fire TV Stick. Select “Find” from the menu.

Step 5: In the search bar, type “NordVPN.”

Step 6: Select the Download

Step : Launch the NordVPN. Sign in using the email ID and password you used to create your NordVPN account. Once signed in, you can proceed to connect to a VPN server to secure your connection.

Inside the Movies section, you’ll find the content organized into various folders such as trending, popular, premieres, latest releases, and more.

Select a folder like popular to browse through the relevant movies inside.

To catch up on your favorite TV series, head over to the TV Shows section.

In the TV Shows section, much like the movies folder, you’ll find sub-folders categorized into trending, popular, genres, networks, and more.

You can explore these sub-folders to access the content you’re interested in. For example, in the On the Air sub-section, you’ll find TV shows that are currently airing.

To quickly locate any specific content, head over to the Search section.

Once there, choose the appropriate search option to find what you’re looking for. For instance, selecting SEARCH: MOVIES will help you find a specific movie.

While the POV Kodi addon generally provides a seamless streaming experience, you may occasionally encounter some issues that disrupt your enjoyment. These problems can range from installation errors to buffering and playback issues.

In this section, we’ll cover some common problems users face with the POV addon and provide straightforward solutions to help you resolve them quickly and get back to streaming your favorite content without interruptions.

1. Installation Failed

• Cause: This might occur if the repository URL was entered incorrectly or if the repository is temporarily down.
• Solution: Double-check the repository URL to ensure it’s entered correctly. If the issue persists, try accessing the repository later or check if the repository has been moved or updated.

2. Unable to Connect to Repository

• Solution: Verify your internet connection and ensure the repository URL is correct. If the repository is offline, you may need to wait for it to come back online or find an alternative repository.

3. No Stream Available

• Cause: This typically happens when the stream sources are either unavailable or blocked in your region.
• Solution: Try selecting a different stream source or consider using a VPN to bypass any regional restrictions that might be causing the issue.

4. Buffering Issues

• Cause: Buffering can result from a slow internet connection, overloaded servers, or high-quality streams that require more bandwidth.
• Solution: Ensure you have a stable and fast internet connection. Lower the stream quality if necessary, or switch to a different stream source. Using a VPN can also help if the server is overloaded.

5. Error: Check the Log for More Information

• Cause: This error might be due to corrupted files, incompatible addons, or configuration issues.
• Solution: Check the Kodi log file to identify the specific problem. You might need to reinstall the addon, clear the cache, or update Kodi to the latest version.

7. Addon Crashes or Freezes
