The most common way to control your Kodi is to use physical remote control. However, there is another way to control it using your mobile phone, which can be an Android or iOS device.
For the second option, you first need to configure Kodi accordingly. Then you need to install and configure an app on your mobile. After doing so, you will be able to control Kodi with an app that is optimized for it. Your mobile device and Kodi must be connected to the same local network for this to work.

An RSS feed is an easy way to follow news and updates. Kodi uses a cool feature called RSS ticker to display those feeds on the bottom of Kodi’s home page.

RSS ticker is a great way to follow news and updates without leaving Kodi.
When diagnosing your Kodi device, one of the common tests is checking how well your storage performs I/O operations (read and write), so you can compare it to other storage devices. The I/O Benchmark add-on writes a file to your storage and then reads this file to test the I/O performance. Don’t be alarmed by poor results as it doesn’t necessarily mean your Kodi device is slow.
When diagnosing your Kodi device, one of the common tests is checking how well the CPU of your device performs, so you can compare it to other CPUs. The CPU Benchmark add-on uses a utility called Pystone for testing the Python performance, which Kodi is based on. Don’t be alarmed by poor results as it doesn’t necessarily mean your device is slow.
