Shopify App Store Scraper | App Pricing, Rankings, Reviews

What is Shopify App Store Scraper?

Shopify app pricing plans, category rankings, ratings and reviews from the Shopify App Store, for $0.75 per 1,000 apps, no login.

For Shopify app developers, agencies and SaaS marketers. Paid Apify plans pay from $0.40 per 1,000 apps; reviews cost $0.025 per 1,000. Only-new mode makes a daily new-app and new-review watch. Your first run with the example input costs about $0.0073 (44 apps in our test run).

Start from	App links or handles, category names or links, developer (partner) pages
App fields	Pricing plans, rating and star breakdown, reviews, developer and address, launch date, languages, integrations
Ranks	Position of every app in each category, Shopify's order or newest first
Reviews	Stars, date, text, merchant store and country, time using the app, developer reply
Output	32 app fields, 16 review fields; JSON, CSV, Excel, API
Automate	Only-new apps and reviews, schedules, Slack/webhook digest, Zapier, Make, n8n, MCP
Price	$0.75 per 1,000 apps (from $0.40 per 1,000 apps on paid Apify plans)
Free to try	Runs on Apify's free plan: the $5 monthly credit covers about 6,600 apps
Login needed	No

Daily monitor: only what's new, every morning

Set it once, get only the new apps every morning. With Only new apps and reviews on and newest first, the first run returns the newest apps in the category; each later run returns only apps listed since the last run and their new reviews.

1. Paste this input into the Input tab (JSON view) and click Save as a new task; it appears under Saved tasks.
2. Open the task from Saved tasks and click Schedule.
3. Choose Daily, pick the hour, and save.

Cost example: 1 category, about 3 new apps a day with a few reviews ≈ $0.17/month on the free plan (from $0.14 on paid plans): one run a day for 30 days, start fee included. The first run returns everything that matches, so it costs more.

Add a Slack incoming-webhook URL in slackWebhookUrl (or any URL in webhookUrl) to get a short digest of each run's new apps; nothing is sent when a run finds nothing.

Why Shopify App Store Scraper users pick this one

• Cheaper than the leading tools. $0.75 per 1,000 apps, from $0.40 on paid plans.
• Every pricing plan. Plan name, price, billing period and features for each app.
• Category ranks. Each app's position, Shopify's order or newest first.
• New apps and reviews only. Daily runs return only what earlier runs did not.
• One run, every source. Apps, categories, developers and reviews together.

Get started in 3 steps

1. Paste apps into 'Apps' (e.g. klaviyo-email-marketing or an apps.shopify.com link), category names into 'Categories' (e.g. Email marketing) or developers into 'Developers'.
2. Set 'Max apps per category' and turn on 'Include reviews' with 'Max reviews per app' if you want reviews; turn on 'Only new apps and reviews' for a daily watch.
3. Click Start, or schedule it daily. Download JSON, CSV or Excel, or send results to Google Sheets, Slack, Zapier, Make or n8n.

▶ Try it with the example input

The form opens with an example input already filled in: that run costs about $0.0073 on the free plan.

How much does it cost to scrape the Shopify App Store?

Pay per event: you pay only for what the run returns, plus a small start fee. Bronze, Silver, Gold and higher Apify plans pay less per result. Paid plans pay $0.50 (Bronze), $0.45 (Silver) and $0.40 (Gold and higher) per 1,000 apps.

Apps	Free plan	Bronze	Silver	Gold
100	$0.0783	$0.0533	$0.0483	$0.0433
1,000	$0.75	$0.50	$0.45	$0.40
10,000	$7.50	$5.00	$4.50	$4.00

Totals include the $0.0033 start fee per run, rounded to the cent (amounts under $0.10 to four decimals). Apify's free plan includes $5 of credit a month, enough for about 6,600 apps.

Each app row is one app result, however many categories or developers list it; reviews are billed per review row. Worked examples on the free plan, start fee included: the example input (4 apps, 40 reviews) = $0.0073; the top 100 apps of a category with full details = $0.08; 100 apps with 20 reviews each = $0.13. Apps, categories and developers the App Store does not know, pages it refused after every retry, duplicate apps and anything an earlier run returned in only-new mode are never charged.

Billing events

app-result	$0.75 per 1,000 apps	$0.50 per 1,000 apps	$0.45 per 1,000 apps	$0.40 per 1,000 apps

Benchmarks: how we compare

Test	Input	Result	Run time	Peak memory
First run (prefilled input)	1 app + Email marketing top 3, 10 reviews each	4 apps and 40 reviews	10 s	77 MB
Category, full details	Email marketing, 100 apps	100 apps	215 s	99 MB
Reviews	3 apps, 300 reviews each	3 apps and 900 reviews	105 s	104 MB

Measured on Apify at 256 MB, no proxy. App pages are read about one a second to stay under the App Store's rate limit, so full details for 1,000 apps take about 20 to 35 minutes; rank lists with 'Full app details' off read 24 apps per page in about half a second.

What data you get

Shopify App Store Scraper reads public listings on the Shopify App Store (apps.shopify.com) and returns one row per app: name, tagline, description, rating with the count per star, review count, every pricing plan with its price and features, the Built for Shopify badge, developer with website and address, launch date, languages, integrations, categories and category features. Start from app links or handles, from category names or links (each app gets its rank in the category), or from developer pages. Turn on reviews for one row per review with stars, date, text, the merchant's store name and country, time using the app and the developer's reply.

• Every row: record_type (app or review), app_handle, source_url, scraped_at in ISO 8601 UTC
• App rows: name, tagline, intro, description, highlights, icon_url, rating, review_count, rating_distribution
• App rows: pricing_summary and pricing_plans [{name, price, price_text, currency, billing_period, details, features}]
• App rows: built_for_shopify, developer_name, developer_url, developer_website, developer_address, developer_country, privacy_policy_url
• App rows: launched_date, languages, works_with, categories, category_features, found_via, category_ranks [{category, position, sort}]
• Review rows: review_id, review_url, rating, review_date, edited, text, reviewer_store, reviewer_country, time_using_app, developer_reply, developer_reply_date, app_name

Use cases

• Shopify app developers tracking competitors' pricing, ratings and new reviews
• Agencies and SaaS marketers building lists of Shopify app developers in a category
• Founders sizing a category before building an app: count, ratings, prices, launch dates
• Product teams watching newly listed apps in their category every morning

Use-case recipes

Daily new-app watch in your category

Categories: your category, Category order: Newest apps first, Only new apps and reviews: on, then schedule daily with a Slack webhook. Each morning you get the apps listed since yesterday with their pricing, developer and launch date; quiet days cost only the start fee.

Competitor review alerts

Apps: your competitors, Include reviews: on, Max reviews per app: 100, Only new apps and reviews: on. Each run returns their current rating and review count plus only new reviews, with the developer's reply, so you see complaints you could win on.

Category pricing map

Categories: one category, Max apps per category: 0. Every app with all pricing plans, so you can chart free plans, entry prices and billing periods before you price your own app.

Apify's hosted MCP server at https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=aurelix/shopify-app-store-scraper gives your assistant this Actor only: it fills in the input from your request, runs it and reads the apps back, at the same per-result price as a run started by hand.

Example prompts

• "List the top 20 email marketing apps on the Shopify App Store with their cheapest paid plan and rating"
• "Get the 50 newest reviews of the Shopify app judgeme and summarise the complaints"
• "Which Shopify apps were listed in the product reviews category this week?"

API

Start a run and read the dataset with Apify's REST API or the Python and JavaScript clients:

from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("<YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN>")
run = client.actor("aurelix/shopify-app-store-scraper").call(run_input={'appUrls': ['https://apps.shopify.com/judgeme'], 'categoryUrls': ['Email marketing'], 'maxAppsPerCategory': 3, 'includeReviews': True, 'maxReviewsPerApp': 10})
for item in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
    print(item)

No-code: schedule it in 3 clicks

Send the results to Google Sheets, Zapier, Make, n8n, Slack or any webhook URL.

1. Fill in the input, then click Save as a new task.
2. In the task, click Schedule and pick daily or weekly (Apify Schedules).
3. Turn on Only new apps and reviews so each run returns only what is new, and paste a Slack or webhook URL into Slack webhook URL / Webhook URL to get a digest of the new items (count plus the top 10) after every run.

Prefer n8n or Make? Ask in the Issues tab and we will share a ready-made workflow for it.

FAQ

Can I scrape the Shopify App Store without login?

Yes. It never logs in, so you need no Shopify account, password or cookies; only a free Apify account to run it.

Is there a Shopify App Store API?

You can use this Actor as one. Start it with Apify's REST API or the Python and JavaScript clients and read the results as JSON (see the code above), or call it from an AI agent through MCP.

How much does it cost to scrape the Shopify App Store?

About $0.75 for 1,000 apps on Apify's free plan and from $0.40 on paid plans, start fee included. The free $5 monthly credit covers about 6,600 apps.

Can I export Shopify App Store data to Excel or Google Sheets?

Yes. Download the results as Excel, CSV, JSON, XML or HTML from the run's Storage tab, or send them to Google Sheets with Apify's Google Sheets integration or the API.

Is it legal to scrape the Shopify App Store?

It reads only public data any logged-out visitor can see: app listings, category and developer pages and reviews, with robots.txt obeyed and no login or CAPTCHA solving. Reviews are returned word for word as the page shows them, written by merchants under their store names. This is not legal advice; check the rules that apply to your use.

Is there a cheaper Shopify App Store scraper?

Yes. This Actor charges $0.75 per 1,000 apps (from $0.40 on paid plans) and $0.025 per 1,000 reviews ($0.02 on paid plans), cheaper than the leading tools.

Can I send Shopify App Store data to Google Sheets, n8n or an AI agent?

Yes. Use Apify's Google Sheets integration, the n8n Apify node, or call the Actor from an AI agent through Apify's MCP server; every row is flat JSON with stable field names.

Which apps can I read?

Any public app on apps.shopify.com: by handle or link, every app in a category (with its position), or every app of a developer. A top-level category such as 'Marketing and conversion' lists all of its sub-categories.

What is the category rank?

The app's position in the category listing when the run read it: Shopify's own order (the default) or newest first. Each app row carries category_ranks with every category it was found in during the run, so a daily run is a rank tracker.

How do I watch for new apps?

Put your categories in 'Categories', set 'Category order' to 'Newest apps first' and turn on 'Only new apps and reviews'. The first run returns the newest apps; each scheduled run after that returns only apps listed since, and stops reading a category at the first page with nothing new.

How do I track new reviews of competitor apps?

List the apps under 'Apps', turn on 'Include reviews' and 'Only new apps and reviews'. Each run returns the apps' current rating and review count plus only the reviews you have not received yet, newest first.

Why are plan prices in my currency?

The App Store shows plan prices in the visitor's currency. Runs on Apify's servers see US dollars; the currency field on every plan says which currency it is.

Limits (stated honestly)

• No keyword search rankings: the App Store's robots.txt disallows its search pages, so start from categories, developers or apps.
• Pricing plans are the ones shown on the app page (up to about 4); apps with more plans link to 'See all pricing options', which is not read.
• Plan prices are in the visitor's currency; runs on Apify's US servers see US dollars.
• With 'Full app details' off, apps from categories and developers carry only the card fields (name, rating, review count, price label, tagline, badge).
• After 2 refused requests in a row (HTTP 429 or 5xx after retries) the run stops asking, keeps what it has and says so in the status.
• Developer support emails are not shown to logged-out visitors, so they are not collected.

Works great with

• Then: Tech Stack API: put the developer websites from developer_website into its domains to see the stack and email provider behind each developer
