The official KodiTips Kodi 17 build is now live! Completely designed from scratch with simplicity and professionalism in mind, download our Kodi 17 build today and test it out on your Krypton Kodi setup.
March 26th: We’ve updated our Kodi 17 build so that you don’t have to manually enable unknown sources and add-ons after install! Thanks to Aftermath Wizard for the code.
With Kodi 17, the build you were using on Kodi Jarvis is not compatible with Kodi Krypton. So, we’ve build our official KodiTips Kodi 17 build from scratch for Krypton users.
This build does not give you anything you can’t build or setup yourself. Installing this build is completely your decision.
Check out some of the features of this build before deciding for yourself whether you want to install the KodiTips Kodi 17 build on your Krypton software:
- Built for Kodi Krypton (version 17). This will not work on Kodi 16 or earlier.
- Simple and easy to use. All parts of the build are right on the main screen. Only 18 add-ons come installed with the build and only add-ons that are optimized for Kodi Krypton.
- Only essential add-ons. You can always follow our guides on Koditips.com to add what you want but this build is meant to be a solid base to start with.
- Only official repos and sources are used. Don’t worry about sketchy sources or malicious add-ons or code.
- Hand-tested by the KodiTips administrator to ensure that all add-ons are working. If you have issues, problems will be completely on your end (outdated firmware, Kodi version, etc).
- The skin in the add-on was chosen because it is easy to setup and customize to suit your preferences. Follow our instructions below for assistance.
- Easily access each submenu by pressing left to slide out the side menu with each sub-section.
Check out screenshots of our Kodi 17 build below and underneath that, we will show you how to install it and set it up to your liking!

Other Random Tips
