Update: Blacktears is currently unavailable.
Black Tears is a debrid-only addon that delivers streams for movies and TV shows as fast as possible. Black Tears is an unofficially updated fork of the renowned but discontinued Shadow addon (by Darkness), and it comes with the new developer settings.
Black Tears addon keeps the original Shadow sections: Movie World, TV World, Trakt, Search, Search History and Settings.
Black Tears addon works best with debrid services, supported debrid services include: Real-Debrid, Premiumize and All Debrid. And debrid authorization can be implemented from Settings > Debrid tab.
On our Best Kodi addons in 2022 list, you'll find tons of working addons that are just as good as Black Tears.
The popular Shadow addon now has many forks, other worthy Shadow fork is Diamond Shadow which you can find from Diamond Wizard Repo.
