How to Browse Web with Kodi in 2021 – Two Solutions

When using Kodi, sometimes we need to browse certain content from web pages. But it's not always convenient for us to close Kodi app and open a browser app on our device. Browsing web from Kodi doesn't have to be that complicated, if only you adopt right web browser addons on Kodi.

Since Kodi is merely a media player app rather than an operating system, one can't install a web browser app on Kodi like what you can do with your Windows PC or Fire Stick. For viewing webpages from Kodi, some dedicated people have done tremendous works and developed two practical addons: Web Viewer and Chrome Launcher which are arguably the only available ones in 2021.

In the following two tutorials, I'll step by step show you how to install these two web browser addons, working in 2021.

Web Viewer is a linear text web browser on Kodi, it doesn't render pages, it filters them and displays text in the order it's found in the original HTML.

You can use it to implement basic text interactions on websites, like Real-Debrid authorization or All-Debrid authorization.

How to Install Working Web Viewer Addon on Kodi:

Step 1. Launch Kodi, click Add-ons.

Step 2. Click the box icon from the upper left side.

Step 3. Click Install from repository.

Step 4. Locate and select Kodi Add-on repository.

Step 5. Click Program add-ons.

Step 6. Scroll down and click on Web Viewer.

Step 7. Click Install from the lower-right side.

Step 8. Click OK to install essential dependencies.

Step 9. Wait until you can see a message saying Web Viewer add-on installed.

To browse web with Web View, launch Web Viewer from Program add-ons, and a web browser interface will pop up in Kodi. Move the cursor over URL box and click on it, type in the URL of the webpage you like to visit, click OK from the lower-right side.

Click the cross icon from the upper-right side to close Web Viewer anytime you want.

Ghost Repository is currently not working, luckily I found an alternative -Browser Launcher. You can download the alternative's .zip file from Github:
https://github.com/Sandmann79/xbmc/blob/master/packages-py3/plugin.program.browser.launcher/plugin.program.browser.launcher-1.2.5+matrix.1.zip
Then select Install from zip file on Kodi to install Browser Launcher.
Compared with Chrome Launcher, Browser Launcher enables you to browse webpages from Kodi with not only the Chrome browser, but also with Internet Explorer, Kylo, Firefox and Opera.

Chrome Launcher works by launching Chrome browser that is already installed on your device from Kodi. You can use it to access everything Chrome on your device supports. What more does Chrome Launcher do? It can also help to create shortcuts to your favorite websites, to save the toilsome web address typing on the remote control for every visits.
