How to Install Simplex Kodi Build on Any Device (2024)

This guide will cover how to install Simplex Kodi Build. It also covers the legal and safety aspects of the build and provides an overview of its features. You can use the instructions on all Kodi-compatible devices like Androids, Fire TVs, Windows PCs, and more.

What’s Simplex Kodi Build?

Simplex is a free Kodi Build available on the cMaN Wizards Repository. It includes many popular preinstalled show, movie, and live TV addons.

All of Simplex build’s addons function effectively, and it can retrieve high-definition video streaming links from various sources without any issues. The Simplex Build home page categories include Movies, TV Shows, Kid’s Zone, Live TV, and more.

You can download the Simplex Build on all your devices that support Kodi.

The build is also part of our collection of best builds for Kodi.

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.

Here is why you must use a VPN all the time.

Is Simplex Safe & Legal?

Simplex build is part of an unofficial repository, cMan Wizard. Unofficial addons and builds may contain viruses or malware.

We can’t guarantee whether installing it on your device is entirely safe. However, I ran the repository’s URL on VirusTotal, and the results speak for themselves. Take a look.

Again, whether Simplex is legal is a question without a definitive answer. We’re no legal experts and thus can’t verify the legal aspects of unofficial builds and addons.

Therefore, getting a VPN before using the Simplex Kodi Build will be wise. It will secure your online activities and prevent the risk of legal problems. I use ExpressVPN to mask my online activities.

Simplex is a reasonably decent Build for Kodi with tons of unique features. Some of them are:

Free to use.
It contains various TV Shows, Movies, Sports, Live TV, and Kid’s content.
Simple to use with well-marked menus and sections.
It lets you resume watching content from where you left off.
It allows you to download and use more skins and themes.
