Updating Kodi on FireStick with Downloader
There are a couple of different methods that Kodi users can use to update Kodi on their FireStick device. Both of these methods use common FireStick apps to download and install the necessary update files. The first method is to use the Downloader app on your FireStick.
Method 1 – use the Downloader on your FireStick
Go to the Main Menu on your FireStick
Select Settings, then Device
Press Developer Options
Turn ADB debugging On, alongside Apps from Unknown Sources
Go to Preferences and click Advertising ID
Turn off Internet-based Ads
Return to the home page and press the Search button
Type in Downloader
From the search result list, select Downloader
Click Download to install Kodi on your Firestick
After downloading select Open to launch the downloader
Press OK and type in the following URL source: bit.ly/kodi174 The downloader will start downloading Kodi
When Kodi has downloaded, wait a few seconds and you’ll see it installed on the screen
Click Open and enjoy your media experience!
On your FireStick, access the Main menu, and navigate to the Settings section. From there, you can access the Developer options tab under the Device area of the menu. Once in the Developer options section, you can turn on ADB debugging, as well as Apps from Unknown Sources, which will allow you to download and install third party apps that wouldn’t normally be accessible.
After that, navigate back to the Preference menu, and click Advertising ID. In this menu, turn off the Interest-based Ads setting. After that, go back to the home page and click the Search button.

Search for “Downloader.” Navigate to Downloader in the result list, and click on it to download and install it on your FireStick. Once it is installed, you can open the app, and click OK.
Once in the Downloader app, users can use the app to access a download link that will download the update file onto their FireStick. Users can use the Following URL: tinyurl.com/kodi18rc2, or search for another URL from a trustworthy source. Please note that visiting third party download sources can be unsafe, and it is recommended to use a VPN when accessing these services.VPN download
Once the download has started, you have to wait for the data to download onto your FireStick. Once Kodi is finished downloading, you can install Kodi by running the downloaded file. As always, make sure to only execute files from trusted sources.
Updating Kodi on FireStick with ES File Explorer
Another popular app that allows users to easily update Kodi on FireStick is ES File Explorer. Much like with Kodi, users will want to enable the Allow apps from unknown sources setting within the Developer Options menu. If you forget how to do this, simply review the process detailed above.
Method 2 – update from the ES File Explorer
Go to the Main Menu on your FireStick and press Search
Type ES File Explorer and open it
Click Tools
Press Download Manager
Click +New at the bottom of the page
Enter the following path: bit.ly/Kodi-17_6-Krypton-APK Press OK
Enter a name for your path, for example, Kodi 17.6
Click Download Now
Select Open File and the latest version of Kodi will be installed on your FireStick
Launch Kodi and enjoy!
Once the setting is enabled, navigate to the Search box in the main menu of your Amazon FireStick. Type “ES Explorer,” or “ES File Explorer” into the search box. When the results page appears, navigate to the ES File Explorer app in the list in order to begin downloading the file.
Just like with downloading and installing the Downloader app, you must wait for the app to download and install before opening it. Once the app is downloaded and installed, you can open ES File Explorer, and access the Download Manager from the Tools menu in the left-hand menu.
Clicking the +New option in the bottom menu will allow you to type in a download path, for which you can use the URL provided earlier, or another download source from a trusted website. For the Name field, simply put “Kodi.” Running the download will initiate the download for the Kodi update files.
Once downloaded, you can select Open File in ES File Explorer to install the Kodi update on your FireStick. Overall, this process is fairly similar to using the Downloader app and shouldn’t give users too much trouble comparatively. Both of these apps are commonly used and trusted, so there should be minimal problems as long as users are practicing safe browsing and download habits.
