You can install Kodi directly on Apple TV HD (the fourth-generation model often called Apple TV 4) and Apple TV 4K by signing Kodi's tvOS package on a Mac, then sideloading it with Xcode. Kodi is not in the tvOS App Store. Apple TV 3 cannot run Kodi directly, and current Kodi releases no longer support Apple TV 2. AirPlay from a Mac running Kodi is a possible workaround for older boxes if they appear as compatible receivers.
| Apple TV model | What works |
|---|---|
| Apple TV HD / 4th generation or Apple TV 4K | Sign and sideload Kodi from a Mac. |
| Apple TV 3 | No direct install; try AirPlay mirroring. |
| Apple TV 2 | Unsupported by current Kodi releases. |
For Apple TV HD or 4K, prepare a Mac that can run Xcode, an Apple Account, Kodi's tvOS .deb package, and iOS App Signer. Kodi's official tvOS downloads page lists Kodi 21.3 Omega as the stable release at the time of writing; check the page for the latest build. App Signer is a separate, third-party utility; use its maintainer's instructions and download page.
.deb package, not an iPhone or iPad build. Download Xcode from Apple and keep the package somewhere easy to find. 
.deb as the input. Choose the signing certificate and provisioning profile created in Xcode, start signing, and save the resulting .ipa. If the profile is missing, return to Xcode, confirm Apple TV is the selected destination, resolve signing, then reopen App Signer. 
.ipa, and wait for installation. The Kodi icon should appear on the TV's Home Screen. 
Kodi's supported-hardware guide says Apple TV 3 cannot be jailbroken for sideloading, and Kodi has not supported Apple TV 2 since version 15.0. Old tutorials that install Helix-era builds from legacy package repositories do not install a current, supported release.
For Apple TV 3, run Kodi on a Mac and try mirroring the Mac display: connect both devices to the same network, open Kodi, then choose Control Center > Screen Mirroring in the Mac menu bar and select Apple TV if it appears. Enter a passcode if prompted. This displays the Mac screen on the television; it does not install Kodi on the Apple TV. AirPlay support varies by model and software. See Apple's Mac AirPlay guide for the current steps. 
Kodi is a media player, not a subscription or a catalog of licensed shows. Install add-ons only from sources you trust and use content you have permission to access. A VPN is optional and is not required to install Kodi.
