Indigo: An Easier Way to Install Kodi Add-ons from Fusion

In this post, I want to share with you a much easier way to install Kodi add-ons than the traditional method.  All you need is an add-on called Indigo.

I’ve written a lot of tutorials on how to install various Kodi add-ons.  They’re all done by installing the add-on’s repository from Fusion, and then installing the add-on from it’s repository.

The problem is that when you hear of an add-on you want to try, you have to search for a tutorial to tell you which repository it belongs to.

Well, the folks at TVADDONS.ag (the host of Fusion and most of the best Kodi add-ons) have a handy utility add-on called Indigo.  It has a really nice feature to easily browse and install add-ons with just a click.

Indigo’s add-on installer section has nice categories for browsing including Featured, Live TV, Sports, Kodi Skins, etc.  You can search for add-ons, or browse them alphabetically.

Also, what I like about installing add-ons with Indigo is that it doesn’t just install the add-on, but it also automatically installs the repository for that add-on so that your add-on always stays up to date.

How to Install the Indigo Add-on for Kodi

• Add Fusion as a Source in Kodi’s File Manager
• Go to Add-ons > My Add-ons
• Go up a folder by selecting the 2 dots (..)
• Select Install from zip file
• Select Fusion (or whatever you called it in the file manager)
• Select begin-here
• Select plugin.program.indigo-x.x.x.zip
• Be patient because this takes a while to install in the background.  Wait for the notification that the add-on is installed
• Go back to the home screen > Add-ons > Indigo

How to Install Add-ons Using Indigo

• Open the Indigo Add-on
• Go to Addon Installer
• Browse the folder to find the add-on you want to install and select it
• You will be prompted to confirm if you want to install the add-on and its repository.  Select Install
• Done!  You should now see the add-on in the appropriate home screen section
• NOTE: Some plugins require you to restart Kodi, so you should do that after installing add-ons
