This article shows how to install the Homelander addon on The Crew Repo. Instructions in the piece are valid for all the Kodi eligible devices like FireStick, Windows PC, Linux, Mac, Android phones, Nvidia Shield, Amazon Fire TVs, and more. I’m using FireStick Lite and Kodi 19.5 Matrix to demonstrate the installation.
What is Homelander?
Homelander is a renowned video addon for movies and shows. It is available on The Crew Repo. The addon is your one-stop shop to stream documentaries, trending movies, hot TV series, and more.
Homelander uses its top-notch scarpers to find your favorite movies and TV shows. The addon itself doesn’t host or own any content. You can also search for people on Homelander and find content relevant to them.
Overall, Homelander is one of the leading video add-ons in the third-party Kodi community – ideal for free streaming. We have added this addon to our collection of top Kodi addons.
Attention, Kodi Users!
Kodi Addons and builds offer unlimited streaming content, but could also get you into legal trouble if caught streaming free movies, TV shows, or sports. Currently, your IP is visible to everyone. Kodi users are strongly advised to always connect to 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 personally 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.

Is Homelander Safe & Legal?
Before you install Homelander, it’s important to learn whether it’s safe and legal. On the safety side, my team at FST and I can’t coin a decision as we don’t have the appropriate resources to check Homelander’s security. Also, as it’s a third-party addon, you won’t find any satisfactory answer anywhere else.
However, I ran a test on THE CREW REPO where Homelander is available and found no risks at all – here’s the proof:
The same goes for legality. Unfortunately, we can’t label Homelander as legal or illegal as we don’t have the resources to check the legitimacy of content being streamed via Homelander.
That’s why I suggest you use a VPN service like ExpressVPN whenever you use Homelander. Your data will remain safe, and your tracks will be covered if you accidentally stream anything illegal.

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.
