How to Install Blink Kodi Addon
I will segregate the Blink Kodi Addon installation process into three parts. This will allow the readers to understand and follow the process easily.
1. Allow Unknown Sources within Kodi
Blink Kodi add-on is not located in the Kodi repository. It is located in Diamond Repository which is a third-party repository. But installing from third-party sources is not allowed in Kodi unless the feature is turned on.

2. Hit Gear Icon (Settings) from left side of the main screen of Kodi.

5. A pop-up will warn you.
Read this before proceeding.
It says the Add-ons will be given access to personal data stored on your device.
Now, if you do not want your personal data accessed by third-party add-ons, it is important to use a reliable VPN like ExpressVPN while streaming through a third-party Add-on.
Skip it by clicking Yes.
