The Addons page is your central hub for everything related to installed addons. From here you can review what is installed, filter by content type, uninstall addons you no longer need, and inspect the details of any addon.

​
Viewing installed addons

Open Addons from the sidebar to see all your installed addons. The page defaults to showing the installed addons list when you navigate to it without a specific catalog selected. Each addon card displays:
  • Logo — the addon’s icon, or a generic addons icon if none is provided
  • Name and version — the addon’s display name and version string
  • Supported types — the content types the addon handles (e.g. movie, series, channel)
  • Description — a short summary of what the addon provides

​
Filtering installed addons

Use the Type dropdown to filter your installed addons by content type. Selecting a type shows only the addons that support that type. Select All to return to the full list.
Use the search bar to quickly find an addon by name or description when you have many addons installed.
On narrow screens or when you want all filter controls in one place, click the filter icon button to open the Filters modal, which contains the same dropdowns.

​
Addon details

Click any addon card to open the Addon Details modal. The modal shows:
The addon’s display name and version number as declared in its manifest.
The full description text from the addon’s manifest.
The manifest URL used to fetch and identify the addon. You can copy this URL to share the addon or reinstall it later.
The list of content types the addon handles, such as movie, series, channel, and others.
Community addons that are not published by Stremio show a disclaimer reminding you that Stremio has not reviewed the addon.

​
Uninstalling an addon

You can uninstall an addon from the addon card or from the details modal. From the card: Click the Uninstall button on the addon card. The addon is removed immediately. From the details modal:
  1. Click the addon card to open the details modal.
  2. Click Uninstall in the modal’s button row.
  3. The modal closes and the addon is removed.
Uninstalling an addon removes all catalogs it provided from Discover and the Board, and removes its streams and subtitles from playback. Any content from those catalogs that you have saved in your library remains, but will no longer have streams available until you reinstall the addon.

​
Configuring an installed addon

If an addon supports optional configuration (configurable: true), its card shows a Configure button (gear icon) in addition to Uninstall. Clicking Configure opens the addon’s external settings page in your browser.
Configuration happens outside of Stremio on the addon’s own website. After changing settings, you may need to reinstall the addon using a new manifest URL generated by the configuration page.

​
Sharing an addon

Click the Share button on any addon card to open the share dialog. The dialog displays:
  • The addon’s logo and name
  • The transport URL you can copy and send to others
Anyone with the transport URL can install the addon by pasting it into the Add Addon dialog on their own Addons page.
