Kodi on PS4 is not available yet. Hence, we have this best alternative for your Playstation console.
Kodi is an open source program for streaming multimedia content. It will play almost all types of multimedia content directly from the network with the help of plugins. Kodi is a totally legal media player that comes with an official repository that contains many addons to access different services. At the same time, you can also install other repos and addons that load media content from illegal sources. PlayStation is a game console that offers a realistic gaming experience. Besides gaming, you can use PS4 to stream multimedia content from various sources. Unfortunately, Kodi is not available on PS4 until now. Officially there is no direct way to install Kodi on Playstation devices (PS4 and PS3).
So let’s see how installing the Plex app is one of the best alternatives for Kodi on the PlayStation. Plex is an official application found on the PlayStation Store. Despite the fact that Plex and Kodi are not close in terms of the features and flexibility that Kodi has. But still, Plex is a better option to use on the Playstation instead of Kodi.
For your information! We are working on a real method that could bring Kodi to the Playstation. But the process is a bit tedious and not everyone can go with the flow to achieve it. Keep visiting this page for more updates.
