# Track an App Store Rating Drop After a Release

**Use case:** 

Watch an iOS app's rating in five App Store countries and get a row only when it actually moves: ratings arrived, the average shifted, or a new version shipped. Every row carries the app version and its release date, so a rating drop lands next to the release that plausibly caused it. Swap in your own app ID and countries to track your own launch.

## Input

```json
{
  "apps": [
    "310633997"
  ],
  "countries": [
    "us",
    "gb",
    "de",
    "fr",
    "jp"
  ],
  "onlyReportChanges": true,
  "stateStoreName": "app-review-monitor-state"
}
```

## About this Actor

This example demonstrates how to use [App Store Review & Rating Monitor](https://apify.com/al_mansouri/app-review-monitor.md) with a specific input configuration. Visit the [Actor detail page](https://apify.com/al_mansouri/app-review-monitor.md) to learn more, explore other use cases, and run it yourself.


## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
This Task's input is already configured above — use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).
