This comprehensive guide will teach you how to install the Apex Sports Kodi addon on Kodi 21 Omega. The same method applies to all compatible devices, including FireStick 4K, Fire TV, FireStick Lite, Fire TV Cube, PC, and Android TV boxes. Before moving on to the step-by-step guide to install the Apex Sports Kodi addon, here’s an overview of the app and why it’s worthwhile.
What is Apex Sports Addon?
Nothing works quite like Kodi for your entertainment cravings. One of the many benefits of being a part of the Kodi community is its addons. They allow you to access tons of free content, including TV shows, movies, and live sports.
Apex Sports is one of the best sports addons, letting you enjoy sporting events and competitions through high-quality streaming links.
The addon scrapes video sources from popular sports websites and lets you watch live sports, live TV, replays, and highlights.
Besides sports, it also offers content from various categories and genres.
The Apex Sports Kodi addon can be accessed from the Arxtic-ape Repository, a third-party source.
Compatible with Kodi 19 Matrix and Kodi 20 Nexus, Apex Sports is an effective alternative to old addons like SportDevil and Plexus.
Without further ado, let’s get into the installation process.
Attention Kodi Users!
Governments and ISPs across the world monitor your online activities. If you use third-party Kodi addons, you should always use a good Kodi VPN and hide your identity so your streaming experience doesn’t take a bad turn. Currently, your IP is visible to everyone.
I use ExpressVPN, the fastest and most secure VPN in the industry. It is very easy to install on any device, including Amazon Fire TV Stick, PC, Mac, and Smartphones. Also, it comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee. If you don't like their service, you can always ask for a refund. ExpressVPN also has a special deal where you can get 4 months free and save 61% on the 2-year plan.

Before you start streaming with Kodi Addons or Builds, I would like to warn you that everything you stream on Kodi is visible to your ISP and Government. This means, streaming copyrighted content (free movies, TV shows, live TV, and Sports) might get you into legal trouble.
Thankfully, there is a foolproof way to keep all your streaming activities hidden from your ISP and the Government. All you need is a good VPN for Kodi. A VPN will mask your original IP which is and will help you bypass Online Surveillance, ISP throttling, and content geo-restrictions.
I personally use and recommend ExpressVPN, which is the fastest and most secure VPN. It is compatible with all kinds of streaming apps and devices.
NOTE: We do not encourage the violation of copyright laws. But, what if you end up streaming content from an illegitimate source unintentionally? It is not always easy to tell the difference between a legit and illegal source.
So, before you start streaming on Kodi, here's how to get VPN protection in 3 simple steps.
Step 1: Get the ExpressVPN subscription HERE. It comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee. Meaning, you can use it free for the first 30-days and if you are not satisfied with the performance (which is highly unlikely), you can ask for a full refund.
Step 2: Click HERE to download and install the ExpressVPN app on your streaming device. If you are using a FireStick, I have given the exact steps starting with Step 4 below.
Step 3: Click the Power icon to connect to a VPN server. That's all. Your connection is now secure with the fastest and best VPN for Kodi.
The following are the steps to install Kodi VPN on your Fire TV devices. If you have other streaming devices, follow Step 1-3 above.
Step 4: Subscribe to ExpressVPN HERE (if not subscribed already).
Step 5: Go to Fire TV Stick home screen. Click Find followed by Search option (see image below).
Step 6: Type Expressvpn in the search bar and select when it shows up.
Step 7: Click Download.
Step 8: Open the ExpressVPN app and Sign in using the email ID and password that you created while buying the ExpressVPN subscription.
Step 9: Click the Power icon to connect to a VPN server. That’s all. Your FireStick is now secured with the fastest VPN.
Apex Sports Addon Overview
Go back to your Kodi home screen and select Add-ons in the left-hand menu. Apex Sports addon should appear under Video add-ons.
The ApeX Sports addon is perfect for users who like straightforward options and menus. The User interface is simple, easy to navigate, and allows you to watch sports highlights and replays in just a few taps. On the home screen, you will be greeted with four options:
- Live Sport
- Live TV
- Replays & Highlights
- Tools
Under the Live Sports category, you can catch live action across various sports, including basketball, soccer, hockey, baseball, and football, for free. You can access multiple sports websites, including Livetv.sx, MLB66, NBAbite, NHL66, Rojadirecta, SoccerStreams, Sportsurge, and VIPRow. The addon provides several links for each stream, which helps users quickly stream any game they want.
If you experience buffering issues while streaming, I suggest you use a VPN to circumvent the problem. Since ApeX Sports fetches content from other sources, some may be difficult to reach due to geographical restrictions.
The Live TV category lets you access several websites, like FilmOn.com, LM Shows, SportsBay.org, and Streamlive.to, where you can watch content ranging from movies and TV shows to documentaries and travel/lifestyle content.
You can also access numerous TV channels covering sports, politics, kids, lifestyle, entertainment, and science.
If you missed a game due to your busy schedule, you can always watch it in the Replays & Highlights section. Under this tab, you can access websites like fullmatchesandshows.com (football), fullmatchtv.com (NFL and other sports), mlb.com (baseball), nba.com (basketball), nhl.com (hockey), and replaymatches.net (football).
Under Tools, you can set your time zone, clear your addon cache, search via URL, and tweak settings according to your preferences.
The addon allows you to enable or disable an entire category or individual websites within the category. For example, you can disable the entire category of Live TV by toggling the Disable category switch and clicking OK. Alternatively, you can disable only FilmOn to avoid that source. I recommend enabling all sources unless you have a reason to disable them.
There is no option to integrate Real-Debrid or an external video player like VLC Player or MX Player. The default media player is clean, minimal, and easy to navigate.
The left side of the media player has controls for play/pause, stop, and fast forward/rewind. The right side has buttons to view information about the content, bookmark scenes, and enable subtitles (if available).
The player’s bookmarking feature is very useful. It lets you bookmark your favorite moments while streaming any content. I have tested the feature and created bookmarks successfully. Here’s how it looks.
Finally, the settings gear in the bottom-right corner of the media player contains additional playback settings.
If you want to download and add external subtitles, you can do so in the Subtitle settings.
The Audio settings allow you to change the settings according to your preference. You can amplify, downmix, and offset the audio. If you use an audio/video receiver to play audio from other devices, turn on Allow passthrough.
You can look through the Video settings to tweak the zoom, vertical shift, pixel ratio, orientation, calibration, aspect ratio, and more.
