I'm having trouble installing on my new computer also. You could try downloading the file from github and building it-kivy on github
or post your error with the insert output button or use anaconda. They also have a discord server to get help.

Look at this post.

@snippsat your post indirectly helped, I'm using rpi4 and was getting a hash error
Quote:THESE PACKAGES DO NOT MATCH THE HASHES FROM THE REQUIREMENTS FILE. If you have updated the package versions, please update the hashes. Otherwise, examine the package contents carefully; someone may have tampered with them.
after fallowing the links I saw that wheel was from berkley and I got the idea of maybe the default pip wheel is old or incomplete so I found this post:
raspberrypi forums
and used the advice to comment out the line pip.conf file in /etc/pip.conf
it forced another wheel and it was 2.3 meg larger. long story short I'm up and running,
hope this may help someone else. Thank you
