App Developer Leads: Google Play & App Store Emails

Find mobile app developers on Google Play and the Apple App Store and export their public business email, phone number, street address, website and app portfolio in one table. Type a niche ("habit tracker", "crypto wallet", "photo editor"), pick top charts ("Top grossing puzzle games"), or paste app and developer links. The actor opens each app, reads the contact details the developer publishes on the store and returns one clean row per developer.

Built for app marketing and user-acquisition agencies, ad networks and SDK vendors, ASO tools, localisation and QA studios, app-acquisition funds and B2B SaaS teams that sell to app publishers. No account, cookies or browser needed.

Where the contacts come from

• Google Play shows an "About the developer" block on every app: the developer's support email and, for developers registered as traders, their legal name, email, street address and phone number.
• App Store shows the same trader details (address, phone, email, and often the D-U-N-S number) on its European storefronts, as required by the EU Digital Services Act. The actor reads them from the EU store page even when you search the US store. Apps not sold in the EU only have the developer website.

In our tests (October 2026): on Google Play every app had an email and almost every one an address; 404 of 500 developers from eight top charts had a phone number. On the App Store, apps sold in Europe usually show the full trader block; apps sold only in the US do not.

What you get

One row per developer (default) or one row per app.

Scheduling and integrations

Schedule the actor weekly on a top chart to catch new developers entering it, then send new rows to Google Sheets, HubSpot, Salesforce, Airtable or Slack with Apify integrations, Zapier or Make, or read the dataset over the Apify API. Checkpoints let an interrupted run resume without duplicate rows.

Use with AI assistants (MCP)

Call this actor from Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor through the Apify MCP server and ask, for example, "find 100 developers of top grossing puzzle games with an email and a US address".

FAQ

Where does the data come from? Only from public store pages and Apple's public iTunes Search API: the contact details developers publish on Google Play and the App Store. No login, no private data.

Why do some App Store developers have no address or phone? Apple shows trader details only on its European storefronts, and only for developers who registered as traders. Apps that are not sold in the EU have just a website. Turn on scrapeWebsites to look for an email on that website.

How many results can I get? Google Play search returns about 30 apps per keyword and charts up to 200 apps; App Store search up to 200 and charts 100. Use several keywords, more categories, more chart types or expandSimilarApps for bigger lists. Developers are deduplicated across sources.

Is it legal? The actor collects business contact details that developers publish for their customers. You are responsible for using them in line with the laws that apply to you (GDPR, CAN-SPAM and similar), for example by contacting businesses about relevant offers and honouring opt-outs.

What am I charged for? A small start fee, each row, and each developer with an email or phone (once per developer). Developers skipped by your filters are not charged. Prices are on the Pricing tab.
