In this article, I’ll demonstrate how to install Samsung TV Plus on Kodi. These instructions apply to the entire Kodi ecosystem of compatible devices, like FireStick, Android, Android TV Boxes, Windows, Mac, and more. Samsung TV Plus is compatible with Kodi 20 Nexus and Kodi 19 Matrix.
What Is Samsung TV Plus?
Created officially by Samsung, Samsung TV Plus is a free service that lets you watch TV channels from the USA, Great Britain, Canada, and many more regions.
Samsung TV Plus is completely free. No subscriptions, no money, just free IPTV at your fingertips. This service includes 63 categories of channels, including comedy, crime, films, documentaries, news, and international.
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 Samsung TV Plus Safe & Legal?
Most people get reluctant when an add-on isn’t available on Kodi’s official addon repository. However, the SlyGuy Repository that hosts Samsung TV Plus only creates add-ons for services that are entirely legal, either free or paid.
Unfortunately, even though the service is free, legal, and hosted by a trusted source, you can’t be 100% sure you’re getting the unaltered authentic service if it’s not coming directly from the official Kodi repository.
Thankfully, the antivirus scan of the repository did not detect anything harmful. Here are the scan results:
Even though you can trust the Samsung TV Plus addon to be your go-to partner for free IPTV entertainment, I still suggest using ExpressVPN.

Part 1: Enable Unknown Sources on Kodi
In this part, I’ll show how you can enable Unknown Sources on your Kodi app. Without enabling this option, you won’t be able to add the SlyGuy repository and install the Samsung TV Plus addon.
By default, Unknown Sources is turned off on Kodi to ensure your device’s safety and security. However, as we are adding a reputable and trusted third-party source, it’s safe to enable the option.
1. On Kodi home, click on the settings gear icon located on the top left side of your screen, just below the Kodi logo.
2. On the next screen, click the System option on the bottom-right side of your screen.
3. Next, scroll down on the left panel and select the Add-ons tab.
4. In the right-side panel, scroll down and select Unknown sources to turn it on.
5. A warning message will appear on your screen. Read it and click on the Yes button to continue. Don’t worry since SlyGuy is a well-known and trusted repository.
6. To receive automatic updates you must enable an option to update third-party repos/addons automatically. To do that, select Update official add-ons from.
7. Next, on the pop-up window, select Any repositories.
Part 2: Install the SlyGuy Repository that Contains Samsung TV Plus
In this part, I’ll show how you can load the SlyGuy Repository on your Kodi app. This repo hosts Samsung TV Plus; without it, we won’t be able to access the add-on and install it on our device.
So, here’s how you can add the SlyGuy Repository on Kodi:
1. On Kodi’s home page, click on the same settings gear icon in the top-left corner.
2. On the settings page, click on File manager.
3. On the file manager screen, select Add source on either side of the screen. If you have added other repos in the past, it will appear below them, at the very bottom of the list.
4. On the next window, select <None>.
5. A new screen will appear. Enter the URL https://k.slyguy.xyz and click the OK button.
Note: I have provided the official link to the SlyGuy Repository. FireStickTricks.com doesn’t host or own this repository and isn’t associated with it in any way.
6. Next, you’ll have to add a name for the SlyGuy Repository. Click on the input box under Enter a name for this media source.
7. Now, enter the name slyguy. Once you are done, click on the OK button to continue.
8. To save the changes, click on the OK button and the window will close.
9. You’ll see the slyguy repo you just added.
10. Now, press the back button on your device to go to the settings page. Click on Add-ons.
11. On the addons page, scroll down and select Install from zip file.
12. On Kodi 19 Matrix, you’ll receive a warning. Read it and click on the Yes button to continue. This warning does not appear on Kodi 20 Nexus.
13. This window will appear. From the list, choose slyguy.
14. Now, select the file repository.slyguy.zip to install and download the SlyGuy Repository.
15. Wait several seconds. Once the repository has been loaded on your Kodi app, you’ll receive an Add-on installed notification in the top-right of your screen.
Part 3: Install Samsung TV Plus Addon
Now that we’ve enabled unknown sources and added the SlyGuy Repository, everything is set up for the installation. Now, let’s go ahead and see how to install the Samsung TV Plus Kodi addon:
1. On the same screen, scroll up and select the Install from repository option.
2. On the next screen, scroll down and select SlyGuy Repository.
3. Next, select Video add-ons from the list.
4. You’ll see tons of add-ons in alphabetical order. Scroll down to the S section and select Samsung TV Plus.
5. The dashboard for Samsung TV Plus will appear. Click on the Install button located on the bottom right side of your screen.
6. Next, you’ll be asked to install some dependencies along with the Samsung TV Plus addon. Select OK to continue.
7. Wait for a few seconds to let Kodi download and install the addon.
8. Once it’s done, you’ll receive an Add-on installed notification in the top-right of your screen.
Congratulations! You have now installed Samsung TV Plus on your Kodi app.
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.
How to Use Samsung TV Plus
Samsung TV Plus is a fantastic free IPTV addon by Samsung. In the previous section, I walked you through its installation process. Now, I’ll show how you can use the addon to explore hundreds of free channels.
First, go to Kodi’s home screen and select the Add-ons tab.
Then, scroll to the Video add-ons tab and select Samsung TV Plus to launch it.
On the addon’s home screen, you’ll come across four options: Live TV, My Channels, Search, and Settings.
Exploring the Live TV > All Folder
First, let’s check out the Live TV section of Samsung TV Plus, which is where you’ll find all of the available content.
Inside it, you’ll find 12 folders. These are the sections for different regions available in the addon. Here’s the complete list of channel regions available in Samsung TV Plus:
- All
- Austria
- Canada
- France
- Germany
- Great Britain
- India
- Italy
- Korea
- Spain
- Switzerland
- USA
Let’s now explore the All folder. Note that the number next to the folder shows the total number of TV channels available in the folder. For instance, there are 1,016 total channels in the All folder.
Inside the All folder of Live TV, there are a total of 63 genres divided into folders like Comedy, Crime, and Entertainment. You can browse any category and check out the related TV channels available for it.
I’m choosing the Comedy folder. Let’s see what we have inside.
There are 20 live TV channels available, along with their designated channel number in the Samsung TV Plus service. Check some out below, or explore the folder yourself to see the full list.
Let’s pick and play a channel! I’ll choose an all-time favorite, but you can explore any channels that interest you.
Next, Samsung TV Plus may prompt you to download some additional addons in order to play the channel. Click the Yes button to continue.
Then, wait for Kodi to download and install the addons it needs. But be ready for the next step!
Once it’s done, select the quality of your streaming depending on the speed of your internet connection. As my internet is super fast, I’m selecting the Best option. Note that if you don’t select an option, the addon will choose it automatically after a few seconds.
Wait for a few seconds and you’ll see that the addon will start playing the channel.
Next, press your back button to return to the Comedy folder. Scroll to the top of the list and select the two dots that take you back to the next folder up in the hierarchy.
Let’s check out the Films folder.
Inside the section, there are 16 free live TV channels you can watch. However, note that since we are currently exploring the All > Films section, the channels inside it can be in different languages. (To see channels from a specific region, select that region instead of the All folder.)
To play a channel, simply select it.
Once again, the Playback Quality window will appear. Again, select the appropriate option from the list and then wait for the addon to play the channel.
Lifestyle and Sports sections are two of the most popular sections in Samsung TV Plus. So let’s explore them one by one.
Return to the Live TV > All folder. Scroll down and select Lifestyle.
Inside it, you’ll find 100 channels that you can explore at your leisure.
Next, go back to the All folder, scroll down, and select Sports.
Inside it, you’ll find 65 channels. If sports are your thing, you’ll definitely want to take a look around!
Exploring the Live TV > Region Folders
Let’s back up to the Live TV folder and explore a specific region of channels in the Samsung TV Plus addon. I’m selecting the last folder, USA. The USA section has around 200 live TV channels.
Inside the USA folder, or the folder for another specific region, you’ll find up to 17 folders for different genres, like Comedy, Crime, Entertainment, Gaming, Kids, International, and Movies.
Select a genre. I’m selecting Music. Inside the folder, you’ll see all the available TV channels.
For example, in the USA > Music folder, I found the channels shown below.
To play a channel, select it and choose the playback quality.
Search for a Channel on Samsung TV Plus
Are you looking for a specific channel on Samsung TV Plus? There’s a search feature available in the addon. This can help you easily find a channel without roaming around the different folders.
Go to the Samsung TV Plus home screen and select Search.
Then, click on New Search.
After that, enter your search terms and click the OK button. For example, I have searched for fail.
After a few seconds, the addon will present all the channels matching the search term.
Exploring Samsung TV Plus Settings
Lastly, we have the Settings section of Samsung TV Plus. Let’s quickly learn about it.
Open Settings from the home screen.
A window will appear, and you’ll be on the Look & Feel tab by default. Here, you can tweak the overall appearance of the addon.
Next, there’s the Playback tab. Here, you can set the default playback quality.
After that, we have Live TV & EPG. Inside it, you can select Setup IPTV Merge to integrate any IPTV services you’re subscribed to.
Lastly, if the add-on isn’t working correctly, you can reset it using the Reset Add-on option in the Advanced tab.
Wrapping Up
Good would be an understatement for Samsung TV Plus, as it lets you watch tons of free channels across all genres from around the world.
