How to Install TDB Wizard on Kodi
Kodi is the biggest community supported media player at this time. One of the best things about Kodi is that it lets you install custom add-ons and builds. But, the problem is most users are not able to tell a good build from a bad one. Not all the builds are meant for all the devices. The right build enhances your Kodi experiences dramatically. On the other hand, wrong build can cause lags and glitches. So, how to identify the right build for your device?
This is where TDB Wizard comes into picture. While TDB Wizard has been re-branded as Echo Wizard, it is still more popularly referred to by its old name. This wizard scans your device and suggests the most suitable builds for it. It also lists out the builds not recommended for or supported on your Kodi device. In this guide we will learn how to install TDB wizard and to install the builds through it.
Note : TDB Wizard is maintained and supported by Echo team. You will not find any support related to it on Kodi forums. If you have any questions, contact the Echo team.
