Shadow is one of the best on-demand Kodi video add-ons that let you watch Movies and TV Shows. Unfortunately, Shadow does not provide free links; it works only with premium host services like Real Debrid and supports Trakt.
The addon has plenty of high-quality links plus unique and awesome features such as one-click playback.
Shadow is faster compared to many other Kodi add-ons. It’s also efficient and has a very intuitive interface that’s easy to navigate.
This impressive Premium add-on comes with a massive collection of movies and shows. You also get different sections, including Movie World, TV World, Trakt, Search, Search History, Last Link Played, What’s New, Settings, Resume Watching, My RD History, RD Torrents, Actor, and many subcategories.
Shadow is not available in Kodi’s official repository. It’s from the Magnetic Repository located at http://magnetic.website/repo
