Kodi add-ons are in a constant state of change with old ones that often were once the best sometimes replaced by newer add-ons.
This page is regularly updated to reflect changes and show the top current best working Kodi add-ons along with user Polls for feedback.
Each month we also test new popular addons to see if they make the list.
Since Exodus has been dominating as the most popular Kodi add-on we have split up the Poll.
One Poll will include Exodus and another exclude it. Hopefully this will help give a better picture for the top add-ons being used beside Exodus.
