Google Play Reviews Scraper

Download Google Play Store reviews for any Android app — rating, full review text, app version, author, date, and helpful-count — in bulk, as clean JSON. No Google Play Developer account, no API key.

You pay per review delivered. An app with no reviews, or a bad package name, costs $0.

Built for app teams watching their own ratings, competitors tracking rivals, and anyone mining reviews for product feedback or sentiment analysis. Pairs with the App Store Reviews Scraper for full iOS + Android coverage.

Input

{
    "apps": [
        "com.instagram.android",
        "https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.spotify.music"
    ],
    "country": "us",
    "lang": "en",
    "maxReviews": 200,
    "sortBy": "newest"
}

• apps — Play Store URLs or bare package names (com.instagram.android).
• country / lang — reviews differ by storefront and language; run several to go global.
• maxReviews — 1–2000 per app (paginated automatically).
• sortBy — newest, rating, or relevance.

Output per review

{
    "appId": "com.instagram.android",
    "country": "us",
    "author": "Jordan R.",
    "rating": 1,
    "text": "Latest update keeps crashing when I open reels…",
    "date": "2026-09-28T10:14:00.000Z",
    "thumbsUp": 42,
    "version": "418.0.0"
}

Apps with no reviews come back as { appId, error, errorType } and are not charged.

What people use it for

• App teams: monitor your own 1-star reviews and version-specific regressions
• Competitive research: pull a rival app's reviews to see what users love and hate
• Product & UX: feed reviews into sentiment analysis or an LLM for themes
• ASO: track rating trends across country storefronts

Use it from code

curl -s -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/beacondata~google-play-reviews-scraper/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=YOUR_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"apps": ["com.instagram.android"], "country": "us", "maxReviews": 100}'

Works everywhere Apify does: REST API, scheduled runs, webhooks, the Apify MCP server (AI agents can call it as a tool), n8n, Make, Zapier.

Honest limitations

• Reviews are per country + language — one run covers one storefront; run several for worldwide coverage.
• This is Google Play (Android). The Apple App Store is a separate store (see the companion actor).

Automate it with n8n

A ready-made workflow pulls your week's reviews from BOTH stores every Monday and emails one digest — counts, average rating, and the negative reviews that need a reply. In n8n: Workflow → Import from URL:

No community nodes (plain HTTP Request) — works on n8n Cloud and self-hosted. More ready-made workflows.
