Originally published at: How to Install Stremio Account Bootstrapper (Addon Package)
In this guide, we will configure and install the Stremio Account Bootstrapper for use on your favorite device. The Stremio Account Bootstrapper is a fabulous tool for Stremio users, especially those who are just getting into the software. That is because it is a pre-built “package” of addons compiled into one that you can set…

I know a lot of ppl will miss the warning. So as I think it’s important here is the info::
IMPORTANT:* If you choose to add this to your library, it will wipe any existing/already installed addons so make sure to proceed only if you wish to use the addons included.

Torrentio seems pretty powerful and responsive to me. What more could be expected by adding Bootstrapper?
Read what Troy posted in the start of this thread. Meant for the beginner Stremio user more than anyone.

No problem in erasing everything. I just want to know where the developers console is?
??? Developer’s console? In Stremio? First I’ve heard of that. Doing some research I found this>

The Stremio developer console is a browser-based tool that logs information about a web application, including network requests and errors. It’s a valuable tool for developers working with Stremio add-ons, especially when debugging or testing.
Here’s how to access and use the Stremio developer console:
- 1. Login to Stremio:
Open your web browser and log in to Stremio at https://web.stremio.com/ using your credentials.
- 2. Open the console:
Find the developer console within your browser. The location and method for opening it vary depending on the browser, but you can typically find it by right-clicking on the page and selecting “Inspect” or “Inspect Element,” or by pressing F12.
- 3. Use the console:
The developer console provides different tabs for inspecting elements, logging network requests, debugging JavaScript, and more.
- 4. Fetch your Stremio AuthKey:
Some Stremio add-on managers, like the one on Reddit, require your Stremio AuthKey. You can obtain this by using a code snippet in the console: JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem("profile")).auth.key.
- 5. Debug and Test:
The console can help you identify errors, track network requests, and debug JavaScript code within your add-ons.

I’m gonna do this to my Stremio. I like that it overrides the add ons I already have. Thanks.

I got it installed and you are correct, it is excellent. Thanks for the nudge. What an easy way to set up a complete package instead of the individual add-ons and their configurations.

Seems you can only add one premium service at a time. Not sure if I can add a second set of the bootstrapper or will it wipe the one I just did?
You’ve forgotten more about Stremio than I’ve ever known but I magine it would overwrite the existing installation. We usually get a ton of good links using regular BOOTSTRAPPER with a few “death kitties” mixed in.
Ya in order to have both RD and PM I now have to reinstall and configure all my add-ons. But for me that doesn’t take long. With RD already in on the bootstrapper it’s just 3 or 4 add-ons to configure and I can pretty much do that with my eyes closed.

Help, please! I’ve installed bootstrapper exactly as instructed, but the ‘premium channels’ very inconsistently filter under the ‘Home’ and ‘Discover’ option. I might get two, e.g. Netflix movies and shows/series, and the same for Hulu, but none of the others. Sometime when it appears to be attempting to load the others, the app independently scrolls through and eliminates the other options and lands on USA TV leaving me with only a couple of the other options, e.g. Netflix and Disney, or whichever. However, none of them consistently filter all the ‘premium channel’ options for movies and shows. I’m uncertain how to resolve this. I’m using Nvidia Shield v 9.2 and Stremio v 1.6.12. I have cleared cache, rebooted the system, reinstalled the bootstrapped…not sure what else to do.
TIA!
Not sure what you mean by premium channels. Movies and series are not in any channels. On the left sidebar or down the bottom when you open Stremio you will see Board, Discover Library Addons and settings for the landing page on mobile devices like Tablets and for the side bar on Streaming devices hooked up to your TV you will see Search at the top, then Home, Discover, Library, Addons and settings. Now on a streaming device click the Discover and it starts off on the Movies page. Scroll right and you will see movies under the :Movies : Popular : Default you can click on any movie to open ot and if you have addons installed you will find it shows a source for you to choose and play. If you click up once it will highlight the three choices I listed. Click the OK buttons and that begins by starting you off on your selections. Click down once and series will begin to show. Click right once to open choices and then right for more choices in either Movies or Series. Now if you want to add a series to your library click ok to set your choices you made in the options then it starts at the far left and you click right to scroll through your choices. Long press OK on any Movie or Series to open a popup that will give you details to click ok on or click down once to highlight Add to Library and click ok to add it. That is just a start.
You can use the search for other threads and watch Troy’s vids as well as read some manuals.

I used ‘premium channels’ bc I wasn’t certain how to describe the filtering of Netflix, Hulu, Disney, Amazon, Apple, and Paramount movies and shows/series that are supposed to show up under the ‘Home’ and ‘Discover’ tabs. I tried to explain what I experience when I go into either of those tabs; the above does not display consistently, if at all. In other words, maybe the Netflix movies, shows, and Hulu shows will display, but none of the others. And, I’m not sure why that is or how to fix it.
Read up on adding catalogs. You can add them to Stremio and see them listed. Ones like Netflix. I also suggest reading up on how to configure and use Stremio. Using the site search will give you lots of help.
how do I get to stremio bootstrapper on browser, went to your video and I enter stremio-account-bootstrapper.vercel.app and browser can’t find page.

Very odd, that link took me straight to the startup page for the bootstrapper. I also copied it as a link and entered it into my browser address line and again it took me directly to the start page.
