Home icon grey.png   ▶ Forum rules ▶ Banned add-ons

This is an example list of repositories and add-ons that have been identified as violating the Kodi forum rules. This means they have been banned from any official Kodi forums, websites, IRC channels and any social media accounts that are under the control of Team Kodi or the XBMC Foundation.

This list is only an example, and does not include all add-ons or services that violate the forum rules.

While Team Kodi does not regulate what users install or use, we ask that you do not come to any of the official Kodi websites for support on these repos/add-ons. Failure to do so may result in a ban.

How do I tell if something is allowed or not

The basic rule of thumb for what is not allowed, is that if the Add-on is offering something for free that you would normally expect to pay for by any other means, then it'll most likely be using pirate feeds.

If the Add-on simply allows access to web feeds from the rights holders then discussion of these is normally allowed, in this case there generally will be a website equivalent of the service, for example Youtube, BBC iPlayer, Netflix.

Note - If the Add-on is from our Official Add-on Repo then it has already been checked that it doesn't break our rules, therefore anything contained in the Official Repo is safe to discuss in any of our websites/channels.

So where do I get support?

Every Add-on should contain the authors name, this found by opening the Context menu on the Add-on and selecting Add-on Information

Generally a search of the Add-on's name together with the author name will give the location of where the author is active.

For example a search term might be:
