    Safety

    Whether a build on Kodi is safe or not is relative to the user. The Diggz Xenon Build doesn’t come from Kodi, so it’s not official. Needless to day, there’s no control from the Kodi team as to what goes into the repository. This can change at any time.

    Ultimately, it’s up to you as a user to guard against malicious software and protect your privacy. Current scans have shown there to be no malware or suspect files within the Diggz Xenon repository. 

    Regardless, you should always use a combination of virus protection and VPN before downloading or viewing content through Diggz Xenon. This is the best way to protect your personal information from hackers.

    Legality

    Most of the content on Diggz Xenon is not legal. The build has tons of content sources from torrent repositories and other pirate sites. Streaming this type of copyrighted content without payment is illegal in most countries around the world. 

    If you’re caught and turned into the authorities by your ISP, you could be subject to legal action. This is the other reason it’s important to hide your IP address from your ISP using NordVPN.

    This is another reason to hide your IP address with a quality VPN provider like NordVPN.

    Installing NordVPN to stay safe while using the Diggz Xenon Kodi Build

    Whether it’s hackers, corporations, or ISPs, online tracking and privacy is a big issue. We gave you a solid list of the best VPNs for Kodi previously. And there are certainly many more out there. 

    However, if you want to use the best-of-the-best, there’s no other choice than NordVPN. It’s an easy-to-install, intuitive, user-friendly VPN that always has your back. 

    Most importantly, NordVPN will keep your system safe while you browse on any device. Using the web without a VPN invites hackers into your network to steal information. Whether or not you’re watching content online, always keep your IP private with a solid VPN.

    How to use Diggz Xenon once you’ve installed it?

    At this point, you have Diggz Xenon installed, and you should have NordVPN or another VPN installed and running. If you don’t, review the previous two sections before proceeding. If you do, let’s explore some features on Diggz Xenon and learn steps to using this Kodi build.


    Playing Movies & TV

    Since this is easily the most popular category, we’ll focus here. From Movies & TV, you can access thousands of movies and TV shows—old and new—from a variety of addons. 

    This is the best category to provide instructions on using Diggz Xenon. You’ll replicate these steps in many other categories on the build, but we’ll review those as well. 

    To start, scroll either left or right from the middle navigation menu to ‘Movies & TV’ 

    From here, you have a couple of options.

    Option 1 – Use the Genres and Lists menu to find a specific title and play it.

    1. Choose an option from the menu on the center to find a list of genres or titles. For this example, we’ll use ‘Movie Genres’

    2. Choose a genre. We feel like watching a ‘Comedy’ today.

    3. Select a title. I heard The Suicide Squad is funny!

    4. When you click on a title, a list of addons and a trailer option will appear. You can choose any source you like, but we recently ranked The Oath as one of the best Kodi addons. To use The Oath, click ‘Play with The Oath’.

    5. The build will bring up a list of links to choose from. Most will have a 780p resolution, but some can play in 1080p. Click on any link from the list and enjoy your movie!

    Option 2 – Play directly from an addon.

    1. Scroll down and select any of the addon icons at the bottom of the menu. As we said in the previous menu, The Oath is always a solid option.

    2. From The Oath menu, you can choose from any category of content you want to watch. We used the previous method to watch a movie, so we’ll go with a TV show this time. Click ‘TV Shows’

    3. From here, you can find content from a variety of categories to zero in on exactly what you want to watch. For this example, we’ll use ‘Genres’:

    What if the link fails?

    If the link you first selected doesn’t work, keep trying different links! Navigate back to the links menu, select another, and repeat the process until you find one that works. It can sometimes take multiple tries before you find a solid link.

    Other Diggz Xenon Categories and Options

    Obviously, there are many other categories in Diggz Xenon, and it’ll be up to you to explore them. The path to playing the content is the same: click an addon, find a link, and play! 

    Here’s a rundown of what you can find some other categories:

    • Networks – Play content from the top streaming services like Disney+, Netflix, and HBO Max
    • Live TV – Access content from multiple IPTV addons and watch live shows all over the world.
    • Sports – Watch live sports and PPV content
    • Music – Access music only channels from the top streams.

    You can also download several paid addons like Trakt and Real Debrid, switch your skins, and access video games.

    Summary

    With the Diggz Xenon Kodi Build installed, you have access to content through some of the most popular addons. It can be a little trying to install a build for the first time, but you’ve completed the task. Remember to always run NordVPN before viewing content. Enjoy your new Kodi build!

    FAQs

    What is Diggz Xenon Kodi Build?

    To answer this question, let’s distinguish between builds and add-ons for Kodi. 

    A single add-on on Kodi could give you access to many types of content, whether official or not. Most unofficial Kodi addons give you access to a specific repository of links. You must open Kodi and then open the add-on to access content. 

    A build bundles groups of the top add-ons and repositories all in one place. It also integrates into Kodi to give you customizable layouts and looks. When you install a build, you only have to open Kodi, and it’s there—with no extra steps.

    Diggz Xenon is one of the most popular Kodi builds because it has loads of working addons in a user-friendly format. With Diggz Xenon, you can access tons of content from a wide range of categories like TV Shows, Movies, Sports, Arcade, Music, Streams, TV Guide, Kids Zone, and much more.

    What is the best Kodi build?

    There are many opinions of what’s the best Kodi build, and it’s hard to proclaim which one is the ultimate, must-have build.

    Developers release new builds every year. To stay on top of their game, they’re updating features based on user feedback and the best available Kodi Addons.

    Different Kodi builds are better for different people based on the type of content they watch. And the user interface is another factor that could determine which build is the best for you. 

    If you’re unsure of where to start, we have a list of the best Kodi builds in 2022. And note that Diggz Xenon consistently makes it to the top ten in most Kodi build review lists—including our own!

    How do I use Kodi builds and are they legal?

    Using Kodi builds isn’t difficult. Just install the build, and navigate through the different categories to find content. Builds usually include Live TV or IPTV, TV Shows, Movies, Sports, Kids programming, Fitness, and even more. Once you access a category, click on the link to play.

    For legality, this is where things get tricky. It’s legal to download, install, and use a build on Kodi. However, using a build typically involves accessing copyrighted content that’s illegal to watch for free. 

    Before viewing content with a Kodi build, be sure to install and run a VPN on your Firestick to protect your privacy.
