The Step-by-Step Guide to Installing the HBO Max Addon on Kodi
After you have successfully created an HBO Max account, I will walk you through the process of installing the HBO Max add-on for Kodi. To make it simpler for you to understand and follow along with the guide, I have broken it down into three primary sections.
The first part of this tutorial will show you how to enable unknown sources on Kodi, which is essential given that HBO Max is not included in the repository that is officially supported by Kodi.
The next step is to set up the unofficial repository where HBO Max can be downloaded. The SlyGuy repository is the name for it.
Finally, HBO Max will be installed from the SlyGuy repository. Installing HBO Max from the SlyGuy repository will give users access to the streaming platform’s extensive catalogue of movies, shows, and originals.
1: Enable Unknown Sources
In this part, you will need to enable unknown sources so you can install HBO Max from an unofficial repository. This option is disabled by default because Kodi does not support or recommend using unofficial repositories.
Open Kodi and click the gear icon in the upper left corner to access the settings menu.
Select System
Select the “Add-ons” menu.
To activate Unknown Sources, you must first select the option if it is disabled.
When prompted with a warning, click the Yes button.
Unknown sources are enabled.
Install the SlyGuy Repository
- The reason for allowing content from unknown sources was so that HBO Max could be added to the SlyGuy archive. Let’s get that repository set up right away.
- To go back to the settings page, press the back button on your device once. Now, choose File Manager.
- Select Add Source.
- When the Add file source window shows up, click where it says “None.”
- You’ll see a new window that asks you to type in a URL. Type http://k.slyguy.xyz exactly as it appears here and then press OK.
- You’ll go back to the window to add a file source. Scroll down and click the box next to “Give this media source a name.” Type SlyGuy into the virtual keyboard, and then press OK.
- Press OK again on the window that says “Add file source.”
- Press the back button on your remote until the Kodi home screen comes up.
- Then go to the tab called “Add-ons.”
- Select Install from the zip file.
- Click on SlyGuy.
- Click on the zip file.
- After a moment, you will see a message stating SlyGuy Repository Add-on is installed.
