In this guide, I will show you how to install Covenant on Kodi 18.1 / 18.0 Leia and Kodi Krypton 17.6. The Addon is now available to install from Kodil repo since the shutdown of Colossus repo.
Exodus Kodi Addon reigned the world of Kodi add-ons for a great while. The demise of Exodus resulted in the emergence of loads of Exodus Forks. Out of all these forks, the one which stood out was Covenant. It was the true heir and successor of Exodus in many respects which made it the best Exodus alternative. First of all, both Exodus and Covenant had been developed by the same developer Lambda which sort of makes it an official fork. Covenant even sports the same UI as its predecessor.
Not only did Covenant fill up the shoes of Exodus, but it was also better than Exodus in a great many respects. It was far more stable and offered many more features. Lambda had even stopped updating Exodus which made Covenant the best alternative to Exodus.
Exodus was later resurrected and both these addons together worked well for quite some time. They are no longer as popular as they used to be, especially since the many new and better performing on-demand addons spawned. Yet, a lot of Kodi users are still looking for Covenant and Exodus. The good news is that these addons are still functional.
If you’ve installed Kodi on your FireStick or PC, then I would say Covenant is still a must-try addon.
In this tutorial, we will show you how to install Covenant on Kodi 18 Leia and Kodi 17.6 Krypton in some very easy to follow steps. Please note that you can similarly install any other video add-on/ or any other Kodi add-on as well.

Covenant Kodi Addon Not Working
Covenant Addon is not being updated anymore and If you are trying to get it from Colossus repo, it won’t work as this repo has been shut down. However, users can still install and use Covenant from Kodil repo as shown in the guide above. I keep testing and updating this article every few days. If you face any difficulties in installing it with this guide, please feel free to comment below.
Kodi Covenant Addon: No Streams Available
The most common problem faced by Kodi users is – “No Streams Available” for many popular Addons. Covenant is also plagued by these issues, but thankfully, there is a fix. You can get Real Debrid on Kodi which provides tons of additional streaming sources in full HD and your problem of No Streams Available will be gone forever. However, I would strongly recommend getting a Kodi VPN as Real Debrid keeps the log of all the data we access.

So this is also failing due to dependencies what do I do
Hey, Covenant is an old addon and hardly gets any updates. Why don’t you try other working addons from our list: https://www.firesticktricks.com/best-kodi-addons.html
Corona works well too
Hi Tommy, yes Corona is also a good addon
Is the link you provided still valid?
I have tried a few different ones to get Covenant but none of them seem to work.
Hi, yes the link is valid. I just installed Covenant from it. However, Covenant isn’t supported any longer and it may not function properly. You might want to look at other addons on our Best Kodi Addons List: https://www.firesticktricks.com/best-kodi-addons.html
Here are some of our recommendations:
Exodus Redux: https://www.firesticktricks.com/exodus-redux.html

Found it! FYI…the small round icon with the tiny changing picture inside of it which WAS plaguing the right side of my screen has been identified! It was originating from my ES File Explorer File Manager under settings. It’s called a Logger floating widget which appears when a new file is created, now UNCHECKED. Sorry to bother you with it. Cheers & Happy 2019
Hi Tommy, I probably couldn’t have figured it was the Logger Floating Widget. Thanks for letting me know.
Making house calls sounds like a good marketable idea. But, we are just some regular FireStick and Kodi users sharing our experiences with you. We don’t have the logistics or resources for such venture.
Happy 2019 to you too and feel free to get back to us if you have any further questions.
Hey I’m new to this whole thing I followed your steps.. say when I’ve found a movie I want to watch in covenenant, how do I know which site to use because there are hundreds of streaming platforms you can download and watch from.
Hi Devin, if I am correct, you are referring to the streaming links the movies fetch when you click them. You can start with any link and if you don’t like it (or if it doesn’t stream), you can always try another.
Thanks for the personal reply, I didn’t expect it. Yes, it’s still there. It’s about a finger length in diameter with a picture inside that changes periodically. The pic is too small to discern but at times resembles a notebook tablet. It doesn’t appear when I watch network TV, only Fire. Thanks for your concern.
BTW, have you or your team ever thought about making house calls for those totally inept Fire users? I’m not there yet but I’m sure there’s a market for it. Cheers
Fantastic site. I admire the time, knowledge, and skill it takes for you to build and maintain it. I have followed your instructions to the letter but still I have a few issues……1) Covenant displays but the scrapers find nothing, No Stream Available. 2) Placenta displays, scrapers find nothing, No Stream Available. The No Stream fix as you instructed worked for Exodus but Placenta and Covenant don’t have that setting.
3) Exodus…Add-on settings, Providers, Open Lamdascrapers Settings…Left side: I downloaded “Module” as you suggested, it downloaded, but where did it go? It is still missing from settings page but coincidently a very small round changing picture has appeared right side middle of my screen, kinda like an icon. Is this a notification of something possibly a download wanting to be installed? Again, I admire your talent and patience. I have many questions to ask about FireTV, I hope you don’t mind my asking. Tommy
Hi Tommy, I am glad you reached out to us with your questions. Please feel free to ask as many questions as you like. And, thank you for your appreciation.
There has been an ongoing issue with some addons not finding any streams including Placenta and Covenant. Looks like the problem is at the developer’s end. There isn’t a great deal we can do about it. Yes, Placenta and Covenant do not have the same fix as Exodus Redux. But note that Covenant is still helpful for fixing any dependencies error you might get while installing other addons.
Lambda Scrapers Module installs as a separate addon. You won’t find it in Settings. You can find it in Programs add-ons section (Kodi home-screen > Add-ons > Program add-ons). Honestly, I am not quite sure about the ‘small round changing picture’ you mentioned. I just installed the module myself and I don’t see it here. Is it still there?
could not load covenant after 3 resets of the fire stick and kodi,real debird did not come up the way your showing in fact it didn’t come up at all. thanks any way
Hey, you can’t really expect much from an outdated addon which is not getting any updates these days. Check out my this guide and try my recommended Kodi Addons – https://www.firesticktricks.com/jailbreak-fire-stick.html
When I go to the stop to install from zip file, nothing is there. Should I try the alternate link?
Hi Kate, yes it is available with the alternate link now. Just know that Covenant is not being updated anymore, so you may not get many high-quality streams. Instead you can try Exodus Redux which is working quite good at the moment – https://www.firesticktricks.com/exodus-redux.html
link not workjng 🙁
Hey Igrice, try the alternate link we have provided in the guide is working fine
I’m having the same problem….I don’t see covenant anywhere
Hey Presley, I again reinstalled Covenant just now. I used the alternate source URL as instructed in this tutorial. Install Kodil repository from this source and you will find Covenant addon in it.
I got all the way to Step 12 and Covenant doesn’t show in the list. It goes from ‘couch potato’ to ‘crackle’. How do I get Covenant in the menu?
Hey Debbie, I just reinstalled the Kodil repo from the alternate source link as instructed in this guide. I accessed the Kodil repo and Covenant is between Cool Movie Zone and Crackler addons. Please try again.
The link http ://kdil.co/repo/ does not work. Cannot open tge link on browser too.
Hi Mayur,
It appears to be a temporary issue with the repo. However, I have added an alternate link for Kodil repo in the article. You can use that.
It stopped streaming anything at all 2 weeks ago until I installed a VPN. Now working fine. I thought there is issue with the addon but later my friend suggested that VPN will help in unblocking it. Is there any way to do it without using a VPN?
