How to install the USS Defiant addon on Kodi
Let me break down this installation process into two important parts as follows:
- Allow Unknown Sources within the Kodi Settings
- Install the USS Defiant Addon
Part 1: Allow the Unknown Sources within the Kodi Settings
You need to take care of this part first before you could install USS Defiant or any other third-party addon on Kodi. By default, the Kodi security settings won’t allow such installations. Here is how you change the settings:
- Launch the Kodi application on your device
- You should see the following home window. There is a cog/gear icon in the top-left corner. Click this icon to open the Kodi Settings
- Now, within the Settings menu, you will find several options. Open the one in the bottom-right called System
- Next, you will find the menu items on the left. Select or click the option Add-ons
- You are now going to find the related options on the right side of the window. Here, you want to click the option Unknown Sources
Note: Click this option if it is OFF or disabled. If it is already ON or enabled, leave it
- You must now see the following prompt. Go ahead and click Yes to continue
Here! You have enabled Unknown Sources and this will allow you to install the third-party addons on Kodi. Let’s get started
