*IAB OM Open Measurement OMSDK, Meta Audience Network, and Unity Ads among leading mobile app ad SDKs for Google Play Store apps; AppLovin, Amazon Ads, and Meta Audience Network lead among Apple App Store apps, per Pixalate’s   based on an analysis of 3.8 million mobile apps and 28 billion programmatic advertising transactions*

LONDON, June 27, 2025** --**[Pixalate](https://www.pixalate.com/), the leading ad fraud protection, privacy, and compliance analytics platform, today released the Q1 2025 Global Mobile App Ad SDK Market Share Rankings Reports for the Google Play Store and Apple App Store. The Q1 2025 reports analyze the estimated market share of third-party ad software development kits (SDKs) used across apps on the [Google Play Store](https://www.pixalate.com/mobile-sdks-benchmarks-report-google) and [Apple App Store](https://www.pixalate.com/mobile-sdks-benchmarks-report-apple).

Third-party SDKs are created by companies that are different from the app developer. App developers utilize third-party advertising SDKs to perform various advertising-related functions, including mediation, measurement, attribution, and more.

## **Top Android Ad SDKs Apps in the Google Play Store**

Market share estimates are based on SDK presence. Pixalate identifies ad impressions on an app and attributes them to every SDK integrated into that app. Because many apps utilize multiple SDKs, this metric reflects an SDK’s footprint and potential access to impressions, not a direct confirmation of its participation in each ad sale.

[Download](https://www.pixalate.com/mobile-sdks-benchmarks-report-google) the full report to explore the estimates based on the number of apps and impression volume.

 Per the MRC, “'Fraud' is not intended to represent fraud as defined in various laws, statutes and ordinances or as conventionally used in U.S. Court or other legal proceedings, but rather a custom definition strictly for advertising measurement purposes. Also per the MRC, “‘Invalid Traffic’ is defined generally as traffic that does not meet certain ad serving quality or completeness criteria, or otherwise does not represent legitimate ad traffic that should be included in measurement counts. Among the reasons why ad traffic may be deemed invalid is it is a result of non-human traffic (spiders, bots, etc.), or activity designed to produce fraudulent traffic.”
