App Store Reviews Scraper — Ratings & Developer Replies

Collect Apple App Store reviews, ratings, review text, dates and developer replies using the public app-page endpoint. Filter before billing and get free sample-rating summaries.

Quick start

Paste your targets into the input form and run. The example below fetches a small sample:

{
  "targets": [
    "284882215"
  ],
  "maxResults": 10,
  "maxItemsPerTarget": 10,
  "maxPages": 3,
  "country": "us"
}

The dataset supports JSON, CSV and Excel export. Use the API, schedules, Make, n8n or other Apify integrations to repeat the same collection. No external API key, browser cookies or login is required by this Actor.

Input and limits

Field	Meaning
targets	1–50 app IDs or store URLs. Apple uses numeric app IDs; Google Play uses package IDs such as com.whatsapp.
maxResults	Stops the run after this many unique matching results. Always set a sensible cap.
maxItemsPerTarget	Per source limit after filters. Apple search uses this per query/country, capped at 200.
maxPages	Caps pagination or sitemap traversal. Ignored for sources returning a single document (Greenhouse, Ashby, RSS, Apple search).
proxyConfiguration	Optional Apify proxy settings. On Apify, Google Search uses Google SERP proxies; Google News and Apple reviews use residential proxies. Other collectors connect directly unless configured here. Proxy usage is included in the Actor price when the listing uses pure pay-per-event pricing.
keyword	Optional case-insensitive substring. Matches title/description for jobs and feeds, title/vendor/tags for products, URL for sitemaps. Applied before billing.
minRating	Only deliver reviews within this inclusive star range. Filtered reviews are not charged.
maxRating	Only deliver reviews within this inclusive star range. Filtered reviews are not charged.
country	Two-letter requested country/edition, such as us, gb, sa or fr. Google Play may not honor this as a review-origin filter.

Duplicate targets are processed once. Filters apply before result billing. Runs are bounded snapshots; limits can stop collection before the source is exhausted.

Output

Each result includes source, id, title, url and fetchedAt where applicable, plus source-specific fields. The Results view highlights title, appId, rating, appVersion, author, url, fetchedAt. JSON export retains every field, including nested arrays. Missing source values are null rather than estimated.

Example result

An actual test result, with long text shortened for readability:

{
  "source": "apple-app-store-reviews",
  "appId": "284882215",
  "country": "us",
  "id": "14563087238",
  "title": "Advertising",
  "url": "https://apps.apple.com/us/app/id284882215?see-all=reviews",
  "description": "Advertising is the worst. 10+ advertisements per anything I see from my friends.",
  "rating": 1,
  "appVersion": null,
  "author": "The Truth ;)",
  "publishedAt": "2026-09-18T05:48:23Z",
  "isEdited": false,
  "reply": null,
  "repliedAt": null,
  "fetchedAt": "2026-09-19T10:05:00.894716+00:00"
}

A free per-app rating histogram, average sample rating, app-version counts and developer reply count are included in SUMMARY. These describe only the delivered sample after filters, not the app’s overall rating.

The free SUMMARY record in the default key-value store reports each target's result count and errors, HTTP requests, and whether the overall result or spending limit was reached. Errors are not inserted into the paid dataset. A run in which every source fails is marked failed; mixed success is reported explicitly in the summary.

Pricing

$0.2 per 1,000 delivered results ($0.0002 each). No Actor start fee. Filtered rows, duplicates within the same context and source errors are not charged. Results are deduplicated within each run. Google Search preserves a URL appearing in distinct queries. Source requests and the default proxy costs are included in paid per-result pricing. Set Apify's maximum charge per run as an additional budget control.

Source coverage and limitations

Uses the public reviews JSON endpoint used by apps.apple.com, with newest-first pagination, rather than the legacy RSS feed. Each source page returns about ten reviews. Choose one country per run; maxPages bounds pagination. The result URL opens the app’s review section, not an individual-review permalink. App version and developer replies appear only when supplied by Apple. Results are a bounded snapshot and may not include every historical review; missing apps and source failures are reported.

Public sources can change, throttle requests or return no matches. The Actor retries transient network failures up to twice, follows a bounded number of redirects, and rejects private-network targets. It does not bypass login or CAPTCHA challenges. Use data within the source's applicable terms and your intended permissions.
