The Boom Kodi addon offers a vast library of movies and TV shows, but its installation requires navigating unofficial repositories. This process carries inherent risks, including potential exposure to malware or unreliable content. Proceed with caution and at your own risk. This guide provides instructions, but we do not endorse or guarantee the safety or legality of using third-party addons like Boom. Always ensure you understand the legal implications in your region regarding streaming copyrighted material.

Before You Begin: Understanding the Risks

Using unofficial Kodi addons exposes you to several risks:

• Malware: Unofficial repositories may contain malicious software that can infect your device.
• Legal Issues: Streaming copyrighted content without proper licensing can lead to legal repercussions.
• Unreliable Content: The quality and availability of streams from unofficial sources are often inconsistent.

Enabling Unknown Sources

Before installing any addon from an unofficial source, you must enable the "Unknown Sources" option in Kodi:

1. Open Kodi.
2. Navigate to Settings (usually a gear icon).
3. Select System Settings.
4. Choose Add-ons.
5. Toggle the Unknown sources option to ON. A warning message will appear; acknowledge it.

1. Open File Manager: In the Kodi main menu, select Settings, then File Manager.
2. Add Source: Select Add source.
3. Enter URL: You'll need the correct URL for the Boom Kodi repository. Note: This URL can change frequently. Search online for the most up-to-date URL from a reputable source dedicated to Kodi addons. Do not use a URL from an untrusted website.

5. Return to Main Menu: Go back to the Kodi home screen.
6. Add-ons: Select Add-ons.
7. Install from Zip File: Choose this option.
