In the latest version update, Venom replaced its Open Scraper module with Fenom Scraper module, which doesn't contain any free hosters anymore. Additionally, the added new My Accounts addon is currently fairly glitchy. For those suffering from Venom issues like no stream available or can't authorize accounts, a solid solution is to downgrade Venom to version 4.1.5.
Venom is a new and more frequently updated Exodus fork, one of the bests of its kind. After I-A-C stopped updating Exodus Redux, Venom has become a great go-to movies & TV shows addon for many. Compared with its countless predecessors, Venom has a similar structure and use OpenScrapers as well but more concise and has sorted many loose ends.
What’s more, Venom specially features auto playback, meaning users don’t have to individually pick sources while watching, Venom will automatically decide what’s on next. All in all, Venom is a great addon that movie lovers should totally have a try.
Given its outstanding performance and frequent updating, we've put Venom on our Best Kodi Addons in 2021 list, movies and TV shows addons section.
