Viking Watermark & Anti Theft holds the top spot for anti theft with 22.7% market share, but the gap to challengers is closing, -7.8pp ahead of Store Protection & Bot Blocker (30.5%). Cozy AntiTheft sits at #3 with 7.1% share, rounding out the top tier. The top 3 apps together control 60.3% of anti theft installs — a clear leadership tier with a meaningful long tail behind them. Anti Bot: Block Spam Bots is the standout mover this month, climbing 7 positions — a momentum signal worth tracking. Worth noting: the top-ranked app and the highest-share app aren't the same here — App Store rank and our market share metric (computed from review counts and other factors) move on independent dynamics, so cross-checking both views matters in this category.
Viking Watermark & Anti Theft (22.7%) and Store Protection & Bot Blocker (30.5%) sit close at the top of anti theft apps, and Anti Bot: Block Spam Bots climbed 7 positions this month. Current rank is a thin signal in this kind of mover-heavy category — recent climbers often have stronger 6-month trajectory than today's leader.
