Verdict

The call

Themify and Lock Launcher both sit at 4.6 stars, but that hides the real split: 80% of Lock Launcher's written reviews are positive against 44% of Themify's. Lock Launcher also leads on update cadence (every 10 days vs every 3 weeks). Themify's advantage is ratings volume (346K vs 4K) and chart position (#9 vs #137). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
