BBC iPlayer Kodi Addon: How To Install It on Kodi

BBC's iPlayer is one of the world's best (free) streaming services. We think of this platform as a hidden gem, as not many are using it outside the UK. However, this is where you'll find a huge library of movies and TV shows produced by the BBC - in addition to a sizeable library of titles that come from other TV networks (from the USA). The only question is - how to install the BBC iPlayer addon on Kodi? Don't worry, TechNadu's editorial team is here to help!

The good news is that the BBC iPlayer addon comes free of charge. Also, you'll find it in Kodi's official repository, which makes its installation easy and quick. However, we also have some not-as-good news.
