No. LocalCast complements Kodi rather than replacing it. Kodi manages your local media library, while LocalCast adds the ability to send content from your phone, cloud storage, NAS, or the web directly to Kodi. They work together seamlessly.
LocalCast works with Kodi 17 (Krypton) and newer, including Kodi 18 (Leia), Kodi 19 (Matrix), Kodi 20 (Nexus), and Kodi 21 (Omega). It works on all platforms where Kodi runs: Windows, Linux, Android, Raspberry Pi, and more.
