This tutorial will show how to install the Seren add-on on Kodi. The first thing to spot is that the installation method is the same for all devices, be it Firestick 4K Max, Mobiles, Tablets, Laptops, Raspberry Pi, etc.
Seren is one of the popular Kodi add-ons for movies and TV shows. The add-on focuses on user-friendliness in particular and gives all the basic features. Another critical point is that the Seren add-on gives high-quality streaming links.
Most importantly, it would help if you took a premium subscription to Premiumize or Real-debrid for streaming on Seren. After a subscription, you must integrate the add-on with a Premiumize or Real-debrid account.
On the negative side, the Seren does not work without a premium subscription from Real-debrid or Premiumize.
Another key point is that the add-on also supports Trakt integration so that you can watch videos and movies of your choice. In addition, you can configure “Smart Play Settings” when integrating the Trakt account with Seren.
The add-on even supports torrents. Hence, using a VPN becomes very much necessary. I strongly recommend using IPVanish VPN, which has unbreakable military-grade encryption and is an award-winning VPN.
Finally, if you need an add-on that works without buffering, Seren is the best choice.
