The tutorial below covers how to install the Estuary Kodi build, provides a mini-tutorial on using the Estuary Build as a first-time user, and explains the safety and legal status of the unofficial Kodi build. The tutorial applies to all devices that support Kodi, including FireStick, Smartphones, Computers, and more.
What is Estuary Kodi Build?
The Estuary Kodi build is a third-party build available in the The7o9Repo repository. Its main highlight is that it allows you to stream content directly from the Kodi home screen.
Moreover, Estuary offers various genres, such as action, animation, adventure, comedy, documentary, drama, and more. The build’s Home menu is divided into various categories, such as TV Shows, Movies, Collections, Favorites, and Add-ons.
Estuary also features several preinstalled video addons.
The build has well-marked sections, and you can add your preferred shows to the Favorites category. Overall, it’s a decent Kodi build that’s free to use and supports high-quality streaming.
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.

Is Estuary Kodi Build Safe & Legal?
Estuary is part of an unofficial repository. The unofficial builds may contain malware or fishy programs that may damage your device and risk your privacy. Therefore, such builds can’t be tagged as completely safe or unsafe.
However, I ran the repository’s zip URL on VirusTotal. The virus scan appears to be clean.
The legality of unofficial builds is largely undetermined. They may stream content from unverified and pirated sources. It is best to watch only copyright-free or public-domain videos.
Also, don’t forget to pair it with a reliable VPN. In my experience, ExpressVPN is the safest, most dependable, and fastest VPN service. You can use the Estuary Kodi Build with ExpressVPN to stream your favorite content without compromising online privacy.
