Best VPN for Kodi 17.4 Krypton in 2019
Most official Kodi addons only work in certain regions such as USA, UK, Canada, Australia, and Germany. To bypass these regional restrictions and watch live and on-demand content on any Kodi plugin you want anywhere you want you have to spoof your location online using VPN. Below are some of the benefits you get when using VPN with Kodi.
- Unblock Geo-restricted Kodi Add-ons: There are a lot of Kodi addons, such as USTVNow, that you can only use in certain regions. With VPN you can bypass regional restrictions.
- Bypass ISP Throttling: Ever noticed that your Internet speed is decent if you are browsing websites but suddenly drops when you are watching videos online? If that is the case, your ISP is probably throttling your Internet speed. Using VPN basically allows you to avoid that from happening.
- Ultimate Privacy: Add an extra layer of privacy and security to all your online activities.
- VPN Applications: You don’t have to be a tech-freak to setup a VPN connection thanks to user-friendly VPN apps on PC, Mac, Android, iOS, and FireStick.
From personal experience, ExpressVPN is the best VPN service you can use with Kodi. They have optimized their VPN apps to work better with Kodi add-ons and have a no-logs policy. Check out our reviewed list of the best Kodi VPNs in 2018 below.

Hi Charles, Thanks for your very fast response. Haven’t tried on PC as I don’t have Kodi there but it does work on Fire TV. All goes well on Shield TV until second Google sign in when I get the message “This app has not yet been verified by Google in order to use Google Sign in.”
Hi Charles, I’ve moved from a Fire TV box gen 2 to Nvidia Shield TV 2019. Added Kodi and YouTube addon as I prefer it’s layout to the official addon, but Google will not authorise the second sign in. Guessing the addon is not compatible with Android TV. Any advice you can offer would be much appreciated. Ken
Hello Ken. I’m not sure whether it has anything to do with the compatibility with the Android TV itself. Have you tried setting up the YouTube addon on your PC or Mac instead?
