If you’re wanting to stream the latest movies and TV shows through Kodi, then today we have a recommendation for you. Alluc is one of the lesser-known add-ons, but it has a ton of great content for streaming along with a clean interface which is easy to use. If you’ve not tried installing add-ons to your Kodi system before, then don’t worry, we’ll walk you through every step and show you how to install Alluc on Kodi.
The Kodi media centre software is a terrific free and open-source program for displaying media on your device and for accessing other media saved to your local network. But it can do much more than that too. When you install add-ons developed by third parties, such as Alluc, you can use you Kodi system for streaming video content off the internet. This way you can keep up to date with the latest episodes of TV shows and newer and classic movies, which you can watch from the comfort of your home.
Installing these add-ons requires you to add new sources called repositories to your file manager and then to locate and install the specific add-on that you need. This process can sometimes be fiddly, but we’ve broken it all down for you in easy-to-follow steps. Read on for installation instructions and how to use the add-on, and you’ll be watching the latest content in no time!
Why You Should Get A VPN When Using Kodi
Before we get to instructions for installing the add-on, however, it’s important to note some security issues. The Alluc add-on can allow you to stream copyrighted content such as movies and episodes of TV shows, which means that it exists in a legal grey area. If you use this add-on or a similar one to stream content which you don’t have the legal right to access, you could be liable for a fine or prosecution.
To avoid any legal troubles, we highly recommend that you get a VPN before using any streaming add-ons. A VPN protects you by encrypting all of the data that you send over the internet so that no one can see what sites you are visiting or what content you may be streaming. It’s also good general security practice to use a VPN as it keeps you safe from prying eyes which might be observing your internet use. There are lots of VPN providers out there, so when it comes to choosing a provider these are the factors you should consider: fast connection speeds, support for several different operating systems, plenty of servers in many different countries and no logs.
We Recommend IPVanish
As it meets all of our requirements and has especially fast connections which are perfect for streaming high-quality video, the VPN provider we recommend is IPVanish. They have more than 850 servers in over 60 countries, 256-bit AES encryption, a no-logging policy, and support for Mac, PC, iOS, and Android.
If you want to try out IPVanish, we have a special offer which is exclusive to Addictive Tips readers! You can get a huge 60% discount on the yearly plan, which works out to only $4.87 per month. There’s even a 7-day money-back guarantee so you can buy in confidence.
