Apple App Store Reviews Scraper – iOS App Reviews API

Fetch public App Store reviews for one or more iOS apps, by numeric Apple id (414706506) or apps.apple.com URL. Export structured rows — rating, title, text, date, version, reviewer name — as JSON, CSV, or compact JSON for AI agents.

$0.10 per 1,000 reviews, plus $0.001 per run. Works on Apify’s Free plan ($5/mo platform usage, no credit card required to try).

Looking for Android reviews? Use the twin Actor, Google Play Reviews Scraper.

The input form on this page is prefilled — press Start and it returns up to 20 recent reviews for Google Translate on the US App Store. A prefill run costs about $0.003.

{ "apps": ["414706506"], "country": "us", "sort": "newest", "maxReviews": 20, "maxChargeUsd": 0.05 }

For AI agents

• Call with mode=reviews and apps (numeric Apple ids or App Store URLs). Optional: country (default us), sort (newest or mostHelpful), maxReviews, minScore, maxScore, sinceDate, outputFormat=compact, maxChargeUsd.
• Do not use mode=selftest.
• Read the default dataset, or key OUTPUT_COMPACT in the key-value store when you asked for compact output (null fields are dropped).
• A blocked or invalid app produces a type=error row. The run still succeeds.
• The public App Store reviews feed caps at about 500 reviews per app per country. If you ask for more, the run still succeeds and the status message names the cap.
• Pricing: apify-actor-start $0.001 (per run at the default 1 GB memory) plus review $0.0001 per delivered review ($0.10 per 1,000). Only type=item reviews are billed; error rows are free. Set maxChargeUsd as a cap. 1,000 reviews ≈ $0.101. 20 reviews ≈ $0.003.

Input

• apps — numeric Apple ids or full App Store URLs. If you leave this empty, the Actor uses the prefill app (Google Translate, 414706506) so an empty run still returns reviews. A URL path like /gb/app/... sets that app's storefront.
• country (default us, lowercase ISO 3166-1 alpha-2), sort (newest or mostHelpful).
• maxReviews — cap on review rows this run (default 20, maximum 500, matching the public feed cap).
• Optional: minScore, maxScore, sinceDate (ISO date; older reviews are dropped and not billed), maxChargeUsd, outputFormat=compact, proxyConfiguration.

Output

One dataset row per review, plus an error row if a single app fails.

Field	Meaning
type	item (a review) or error
reviewId	Stable review id
appId, appName, appUrl	App identifiers (Apple id, name, store URL)
platform	ios
country	Storefront
score	Star rating, 1–5
title, text	Review title and body
userName, userUrl	Reviewer name and profile URL, when present
voteCount, voteSum	Helpfulness votes, when present
version	App version the review was written against, when known
date, dateIso, url, scrapedAt	Review date, review URL, and scrape time
error	Set on type=error rows

The public reviews feed caps at about 10 pages (~500 reviews) per app per country. If you ask for more, the run still succeeds and the status message names the cap.

Pricing

Pay per event:

Event	Price
Actor start (apify-actor-start)	$0.001 per run (at the default 1 GB memory)
Review (review)	$0.0001 each ($0.10 per 1,000)

Only delivered type=item reviews are billed. Error rows are free. maxChargeUsd stops the run before it would go over. Works on Apify’s Free plan.

Reliability

If one app is blocked or invalid, that app becomes an error row and the run still succeeds. An empty input uses the prefill app so a first try always returns reviews. The 500-review feed cap is stated in the status message, not hidden.

More examples

A UK storefront URL, most-helpful first, 4–5 stars:

{
  "apps": ["https://apps.apple.com/gb/app/google-translate/id414706506"],
  "sort": "mostHelpful",
  "maxReviews": 100,
  "minScore": 4,
  "maxChargeUsd": 1
}

Reviews since a date, compact output for an agent:

{
  "apps": ["389801252"],
  "country": "us",
  "sinceDate": "2026-01-01",
  "maxReviews": 200,
  "outputFormat": "compact",
  "maxChargeUsd": 1
}

Run it on a schedule

Suggested frequency: daily for app-reputation monitoring, weekly for competitor review digests. Set sinceDate so each run keeps only new reviews. Save your input as a Task in Apify Console, then add a Schedule. Send results to Google Sheets, Slack, webhooks, Make / Zapier / n8n, or an AI agent through the Apify MCP server.

FAQ

Is there an official App Store reviews API? Only for apps you own (App Store Connect). This Actor reads Apple's public customer-review feed for any app, with no Apple account or API key.

Why do I get at most about 500 reviews per app? Apple's public feed stops at about 500 recent reviews per app per country. The run status says so instead of failing. Use more country storefronts to collect more.

Do I need an Apple account or cookies? No. No login, cookies, or API key.

What does a run cost? $0.001 to start plus $0.0001 per review ($0.10 per 1,000). A 20-review prefill run is about $0.003. maxChargeUsd caps spend. Error rows are free.

Can I get Google Play reviews too? Yes, with the twin Google Play Reviews Scraper. Both return the same review fields, so you can merge them.

Can I use it with AI agents or MCP? Yes, through the Apify MCP server or API. outputFormat: "compact" writes a token-lean copy (OUTPUT_COMPACT) with null fields dropped.
