How to Install Corona Kodi Addon

Last updated August 20, 2019 By Patrick

In this tutorial, I will demonstrate how to install Corona Addon on Kodi. Even though the screenshots were taken on Windows, the method works exactly the same way for FireStick and all other Kodi supported platforms.

Corona Kodi addon is one deserved addition to our list of Best Kodi Addons. The addon has been around for a few months and continued to perform consistently. It is designed to stream on-demand content including Movies, Shows and Documentaries.

The simple layout of Corona makes for quick and easy navigation. With the organized categories and subcategories, you can find the content you wish to watch without any difficulties. The addon also features a Search option on the main-screen in case you are looking for something specific to watch.

Corona fetches plenty of free streams, mostly with 720p playback resolution. With the Real-Debrid sign-in, you get access to higher quality streams in up to 1080p resolution.

Update!!! Corona addon is currently unavailable as the Sandman Repo is down. Please try one of the other addons from our list of Best Kodi Addons.

How to Install Corona Addon on Kodi

I will take you through the detailed installation process. But, first things first. Kodi would not let you install any third-party addon unless you have tweaked a system setting. It is a security setting that prevents the automatic installation of malicious plugins. Corona is a safe and tested addon and hence we can change this setting for it.

Here is what you go to do:

Attention KODI Users: Read before you continue

Kodi Addons / builds offer unlimited streaming content, but could also get you into legal trouble if caught streaming free Movies / TV shows / Sports. Kodi users are strongly advised to always connect a VPN while streaming online. A good Kodi VPN hides your identity, bypasses government surveillance, geo-blocked content, and ISP throttling (which also helps in buffer-free streaming).

I use ExpressVPN which is the fastest and most secure VPN. It is very easy to install on any device including Amazon FireStick. You get 3-months free and save 49% on its annual plans. Also, it comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee. If you are not satisfied, you can always ask for a refund.

Before you start streaming with Kodi Addons / 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, Sports) might get you into legal trouble.

Kodi users are strongly advised to connect a VPN while streaming. A VPN for Kodi will bypass ISP throttling, Government Surveillance, and geo-restriction on popular Add-ons. I always connect ExpressVPN on all my streaming devices and I suggest you do the same.

ExpressVPN is the fastest and most secure VPN. It comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee. Meaning, you can use it freely for the first 30-days and if you are not satisfied with the performance (which is highly unlikely), you can ask for the full refund.

NOTE: We do not encourage the violation of the 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.

Step 2: Click HERE to download and install the ExpressVPN app on your device.

Step 3: Click the Power icon to connect a VPN server. That's all. Your connection is now secure with the fastest and best VPN for Kodi.

How to Use Corona Kodi Addon

Corona rather looks like a straightforward addon to me. However, the developers have introduced a token system, which I think you must learn about beforehand.

Let’s first access the addon. For that, go to the Kodi home-screen and highlight Add-ons on the left. You will see Corona Kodi addon within the Video add-ons section. Or you could simply go to Add-ons > Video add-ons

how to use corona addon on kodi

When you run Corona, it asks for the access token. When prompted, click Continue

You will now see the following prompt:

installing and using corona addon on kodi

There are two ways to get the token. Here is the first one:

  • You could manually go to the development-tools.net
  • Enter the ID displayed on your Kodi screen
  • Click Generate Token on the webpage.
  • A token is displayed on your browser. It remains active for less than 5 minutes. Note down the token, return to Kodi, click Enter token

The other way is to click Get token instead. It will open the same link www.development-tools.net in your default web browser. You can follow the steps above to authorize Corona with the token.

The first method works better for me.

Here is what the Corona team has to say about the token system.

Once you are in, this is what the main-screen of Corona Add-on looks like. As you can see, Corona Kodi addon is a fairly regular one. It has conventional categories including Movies, TV Shows, New Movies, New Episodes, Documentaries, etc.

It also has My Movies and My TV Shows sections, which work when you sign in to the addon with Trakt. These sections sync with your Trakt account.

The Tools option takes you to the addon settings. You can use the search option to look up for any specific video content within the addon.

Verdict

Corona gets straight to the business without a lot of fuss. As you must have noticed, this addon keeps things simple. It only features the basic categories and options so that you could get started watching your favorite movies and shows straight away. By keeping away from all the frills, Corona manages to stay low-sized and fast.

The content collection is what you would expect – big. It has the latest as well as the old movies and shows. The token system is one small barrier you must cross in order to get started. Everything else looks great to me about Corona Kodi Addon.
