Kodi "Leia" 18.5 Release
In our ongoing mission to bring you the very greatest (and most reliable) media centre software in the world, it's time to let another point release escape into the wild. Usual rules apply: this isn't about features, it's about stability and usability.

The nature of point releases is that most of these changes won't be visible to most people unless they address a specific problem you'd stumbled across. That said, they're all real bugs, and real fixes, so thanks as always to all who found a bug, took the time to report it and, in some cases, provided a fix.
The full v18.5 changelog can be found in our GitHub
milestone. If you want to read back on what was actually changed in v18 itself, you can find the corresponding articles in the blog posts -
Kodi 18,
Kodi 18.1,
Kodi 18.2,
Kodi 18.3 and
Kodi 18.4.
Application delpoyment on different platforms (notably, Google Play and the Microsoft Store) varies due to circumstances outside of our control. It may thus take a few more days to appear everywhere, so just stay tuned.
