I totally agree with the above-mentioned applications...These are good to go if you use IPTV or Firestick for streaming. I have personally tried the Kodi builds and liked Diggz Xenon the most because it has many versions like Diggz Ultra, Diggz Nexus, Diggz Matrix, etc. Once again, a useful list is shared. In addition, I would like to mention that Stremio and Plex apps are also good options to stream.
