Run FenLight+ from your phone.
An Android app for the FenLight+ Kodi plugin. Browse movies and TV on your phone and send anything you find over to Kodi, which sorts out the sources and plays it on the TV.
Your phoneBrowse & pick
FenLight+Resolves source
Kodi TVPlays instantly
A tap sends Kodi a JSON-RPC Player.Open call on a plugin://plugin.video.fenlight/… URL. FenLight+ finds a source and plays it on the TV, with the phone acting as the remote.
How it works
It's basically a remote for FenLight+
The app talks to your Kodi box over the local network and drives FenLight+ from there. You do the browsing on the phone; the playing happens on the TV.
Point it at Kodi
It scans your local network and finds the Kodi box on its own. Sign in to Trakt, TMDB, Real-Debrid or TorBox if you use them.
Find something
Scroll the home rows and detail pages, or search for a film or show.
Send it to the TV
Tap play. FenLight+ finds a stream and starts it on Kodi. Let it autoplay the best match, or pick the source yourself.
Features
What it does
The main things it can do, grouped roughly by what you'd reach for.
Playing to Kodi
Send any film or episode to FenLight+ with one tap and it plays on the TV.
- Autoplay the best match, or choose the source
- Line up several episodes to play back to back
- A Now Playing screen with play/pause, skip, seek and subtitles
Trakt
Pick up the shows you're partway through, and keep watched state in sync.

- Mark things watched or unwatched, and hide finished shows
- Your lists, watchlist, history and calendar, cached for speed
Accounts and debrid
Sign in to the services you already use and reach your debrid cloud from the app.
- Your own TMDB lists and watchlists
- Browse your Real-Debrid or TorBox cloud files
- Play them on Kodi, or download them to the phone
- Add magnets or NZBs, and AirLock TorBox items
Setup and preferences
Not much to it, plus a few things you can tweak.
- Finds Kodi on your network by itself
- Light, dark or follow the system
- Set your region and filter adult content
Self-updating
It's not on the Play Store, so it handles its own updates instead.
- Checks for a newer release when it starts
- Downloads and installs it in place
- APKs are signed and checked against a SHA-256
Playback options
You decide how it finds a stream
Each play action can work differently, from fully automatic to completely hands-on. When you pick a source by hand you can do it on the phone or over on Kodi, whichever you set in Playback settings, and it always plays back on the TV.

Before you start
What you’ll need
Two things, one on each end.
On your phone
- An Android device on Android 8.0 (API 26) or newer.
- Since it's not on the Play Store, you'll need to let your browser or file manager install it when Android asks.
On your TV
- Kodi on the same network, with the FenLight+ plugin installed.
- Remote control turned on in Kodi: Settings → Services → Control → “Allow remote control via HTTP”.
