Handy app for managing Kodi data

AdbLink is a free lightweight software that is specifically designed to be a companion program for Kodi. This utility tool enables you to manage your data more efficiently. It also allows you to install apps seamlessly without needing the Android SDK. Furthermore, it provides a link between your android device and your macOS computer. This program can be fully downloaded and experienced without any payment charge or subscription required.  

How AdbLink works

As mentioned, AdbLink is a companion app for Kodi for Android. However, it does not only allow you to sideload Kodi on your desktop but other apps as well. All this without the bother of downloading the Android SDK and other tools. Additionally, the app lets you copy files to and from Kodi, while you run it on your Android device. You can also backup your Kodi data, root the Fire TV, and even mount USB drives. It allows users to manage their devices using a USB or IP address

It works almost as if it's an innate extension of your PC interface. Once you have it connected, you can manage your Kodi data with just one click. The best part of it is that you have a full mouse and a keyboard set up to do all this. You don't have to mess with touchscreens and hardware remotes. Other noteworthy functions of this app include erasing, restoring, screenshot, console, splash screen, remote view or view log, and open SFTP. 

Quick and easy installation

AdbLink is a free program that users can download on their computer. This app does not require additional hardware to work. As long as you have a computer, you can have this software installed. You only need to make sure that your Fire device is on and sideloading is a cinch. Installing the app is quick and easy as if you are downloading a single file and running it on a computer. You only need to double-click the downloaded.exe setup file to install the app on your device. 

However, while the app takes no time to install, learning how it works can take some time. You have to be somewhat familiar with IP addresses and wireless connections. Additionally, the app's interface can be a little cluttered compared to other similar software. But once you get the hang of it, you can have an easier time. Adding APK files to your Fire TV will be extremely easy. Moreover, once you have completely familiarized yourself with the app, it can save you more time in the long run. 

Convenient but requires a learning curve

All in all, AdbLink is a handy app to have when you are constantly using Kodi on your Android device or Fire TV. Using the app, you can move, copy, backup, and restore data more effectively. And while it takes some time to learn how the app works, it will surely help you in the long run. If you want powerful sideloading commands, this utility tool is definitely the way to go.

What does this mean?

We have scanned the file and URLs associated with this software program in more than 50 of the world's leading antivirus services; no possible threat has been detected.

Warning

This software program is potentially malicious or may contain unwanted bundled software.

Why is the software program still available?

Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are possibly false positives.

What is a false positive?

It means a benign program is wrongfully flagged as malicious due to an overly broad detection signature or algorithm used in an antivirus program.

We’d like to highlight that from time to time, we may miss a potentially malicious software program. To continue promising you a malware-free catalog of programs and apps, our team has integrated a Report Software feature in every catalog page that loops your feedback back to us.
