Add-on diagnosis

Test a Stremio add-on before reinstalling it.

A public add-on can be checked for URL safety, reachability, manifest validity, supported resources, and response time without accessing your Stremio app.

Try these first

The fixes that usually work

  1. Open only the add-on's public, unparameterized manifest address. Valid JSON confirms that endpoint answered; it does not prove catalog, stream, provider, or title availability.
  2. Check the add-on's official page or channel for a current outage, retirement, or address change before reinstalling anything.
  3. If the same add-on is installed twice from different addresses, identify the official current installation before removing the older one.
  4. Use the add-on's official configuration instructions. Some changes require saving only; others may require a fresh install address.

No sign-up needed for any of these. If none of them change anything, the free diagnostic checks the rest of the chain and tells you which stage is actually failing.

Common causes

What may be happening

  • The manifest endpoint is offline
  • The manifest response is invalid JSON
  • Required resources are missing
  • The add-on is slow or returns no streams

A better process

Check the chain in order

  1. Paste the public add-on or manifest URL
  2. Validate the host and protocol
  3. Fetch and inspect the manifest in your browser
  4. See what can and cannot be tested
