##### 2026-10-11

*Changes*

- After a rate limit or an "API capacity exceeded" answer the actor now waits and slows down, and if Apple keeps limiting it, stops asking Apple for the rest of the run instead of switching IP addresses. App details are read at Apple's pace of about 20 requests a minute. The reviews collected so far are returned, and the status message says where the run stopped.

##### 2026-09-30

*Fixes*

- In new-only mode, a review that a run could not return because it reached **Maximum rows** or its spending limit arrives in the next run. It used to be marked as seen and never delivered.

##### 2026-09-28

*Changes*

- The app list is also accepted as `app`, `appId`, `appIds`, `url`, `urls`, `id` or `ids`, so AI agents and scripts that use those names work without changes.

##### 2026-09-27

*Features*

- Reviews now come from the review API behind the App Store website: more than 500 reviews per storefront, and the developer's reply with its date.

*Changes*

- `version` and `helpfulVotes` are empty on reviews from the new source, which does not publish them. Apple's RSS feed stays in use as a fallback.
- The watch field is now called `watchName`. Runs that send the old name `watchKey` keep working.
- Lower price per review on every plan.

##### 2026-09-26

*Changes*

- Lower price for the app details row on every plan.

##### 2026-09-24

*Changes*

- Lower price per review on every plan.

##### 2026-09-23

*Features*

- First version: reviews from any App Store storefront through Apple's RSS feed (up to 500 per storefront and sort order) with rating, title, text, app version and helpful votes, filters by stars and date, a new-only mode and an optional app details row.
