Problem: You recently upgraded to Kodi 19 from an older version and now some of your addons appear to be broken while others are not. Kodi 19 was radically different from previous versions.

I have tried to download no limits and placenta and about 3 others. Not one of them would let me put the build into kodi. I got the failed message about add-ons. I run single movie apps like Terrarium Tv on the stick. I would really like to use Kodi.

My Downloader app has been pulled from the Amazon Appstore by Amazon. I have not been told why it was removed. Downloader achieves that task quicker and simpler than ES File Explorer , which is currently the most popular way to sideload apps , and that was my main goal with the app. I hope to find time to add additional features to the app in the near future.
