📱 What is the Google Play Reviews Scraper?

It turns any Android app into a structured review dataset. Point it at one or many apps, choose the countries and how many reviews you want, and it pulls the reviews directly from Google Play's internal review API — fast and reliable, with no headless browser. Filter by star rating, sort by newest or most relevant, and capture official developer replies so product, marketing and research teams can analyse feedback at scale.

What data does it extract?

• Star rating (1–5) and full review text (content)
• Author name and author image URL
• Thumbs-up count — how helpful other users found the review
• Developer reply text and reply date (when the developer responded)
• App version the review was written on
• App name, app ID and app URL
• Country the review was collected from
• Review ID and review date

❓ FAQ

How do I scrape Google Play reviews? Add one or more appIds (or appUrls), choose countries and maxReviews, then Run. You get structured reviews with rating, text, author, thumbs-up count and developer replies.

Where do I find an app's package ID? It is the id= part of the Google Play URL — e.g. in https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.twitter.android the package ID is com.twitter.android. You can also just paste the full URL in appUrls.

Do I need an API key? No. There is no login or API key — and no browser automation either; it reads Google Play's review data directly.

Can I get reviews from multiple countries? Yes — list any of the 50+ supported country codes (us, gb, ca, au, de, fr, es, it, jp, kr, br, in and more). Reviews are pulled per app per country.

Can I filter by star rating? Yes — set filterRating to 1–5 to keep only reviews with that rating (e.g. only 1-star reviews to study complaints).

Does it capture developer replies? Yes — when a developer has responded, the reply_content and reply_date are included.

How many reviews can I get? Up to your maxReviews cap per app per country, or set it to 0 for unlimited; it paginates automatically. Use delaySeconds to stay under rate limits on large pulls.

Can I run it on a schedule or via API? Yes — schedule recurring runs in Apify, call it via the API/SDK, or connect it to Make, Zapier or n8n.

Is scraping Google Play reviews legal? It extracts publicly available review data. Use it responsibly for research and product analysis, and follow applicable laws and Google Play's terms. Enterprise/private apps are not accessible.
