Currently, the best add-on for Stremio is Torrentio which provides torrent file streaming links and can be used with or without real-debrid.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Because Torrentio provides torrent links, those who do not use real-debrid must use a VPN in conjunction with this service.

If someone in your household were to accidentally stream a copyrighted movie or TV show, you may face ISP termination or legal problems without a VPN.

With these services integrated, users will find tons of HD content available that play with no buffering on nearly any device.

This application is continually updated with new features and fixes. The newest version of Stremio is V1.6.9 which was released on April 3, 2024. Some important updates in this latest release include:

• Updated Media3 (ExoPlayer)
• Improvements to episode notifications logic
• Increase playback tick from 500ms to 850ms
• Updated translations & new languages
• Other minor fixes and changes

Due to its continually updated platform and high-quality link choices, many consider it a.

In this tutorial, we will show you how to register for a free Stremio account as well as a step-by-step installation guide. We are using a Fire TV Stick 4K Max which is the most popular streaming device.

These steps also work for any variation of Firestick and Fire TV as well as Android TV/Google TV Boxes. For those who prefer other options, this app is also supported on Windows, Linux, Mac, Android phones/tablets, and via a web browser.

Is Stremio Safe?

When using unverified streaming apps from 3rd party developers, it is important to know what comes with these applications.

We scan these apps with VirusTotal which is a malware service available on streaming devices and more.

Here is the screenshot of the scan results:

VirusTotal did find one suspicious file within the APK file, however, it does not seem to be any sort of malware.

We always preach about the importance of using a VPN, especially with the Stremio application when set up with Torrentio.

When VirusTotal flags suspicious files with these applications, a trusted VPN is pretty much required to protect your identity and security.

Is Stremio Legal?

It’s impossible for TROYPOINT to determine whether these unverified applications hold the proper licensing.

The end-user is responsible for all content accessed through apps such as Stremio.

TROYPOINT recommends using 100% legal and verified free streaming options instead of Stremio. You will find a link to the best free legal movie/TV show apps below.
