## Changelog

### 0.1.13 — 2026-10-16

- 🔍 New **Filter reviews** option: all, a single star level (5 ⭐ … 1 ⭐), with photos or videos, or
  verified purchases only — the same filters as on the TikTok Shop product page.
- Product summary: `total_reviews` is always the product's full count; new `matching_reviews` shows
  how many match the chosen filter.

### 0.1.10 — 2026-10-16

- Much faster and more reliable for 🇺🇸 US, 🇲🇽 Mexico, 🇯🇵 Japan, 🇮🇩 Indonesia, 🇲🇾 Malaysia,
  🇹🇭 Thailand, 🇻🇳 Vietnam, 🇵🇭 Philippines and 🇸🇬 Singapore: products in these markets are now
  read in a few seconds each, and far fewer hit TikTok's verification step.
- A product whose reviews TikTok refuses is now retried and reported as skipped (not charged),
  instead of appearing as "0 reviews".
- Lower memory use; runs stay within the default 1 GB.

### 0.1.6 — 2026-10-15

- Run-health reporting: every run sends one record to the FlowExtract monitor (sink from the
  Vault), with the real verdict — success / recovered / degraded / failed.
- Runs always finish successfully on Apify; problems are reported, not crashed.
- Clearer retry messages when TikTok shows a verification step.
- Store listing: SEO title, SEO description and categories.

### 0.1.3 — 2026-10-15

- Market is now picked from a list (🔎 Auto-detect + 16 named markets with flags) instead of typed.
- Input form reorganised into emoji sections; product links are validated in the form.
- "Most recent first" sort verified and enabled.
- Default memory lowered to 1 GB (measured peak 576 MB on a 1,000-review run); review rows are
  streamed, so memory stays flat however many reviews a product has.
- Tiered pay-per-event pricing (lower prices on higher Apify plans).
- Accounts without residential proxy now get one clear explanation row and the run stops at once,
  instead of retrying every product.
- Guidance rows now validate against the dataset schema.

### 0.1 — 2026-10-15

First release (private).

- Scrape TikTok Shop product reviews from any TikTok Shop market via product URL or id.
- Rich review fields: rating, text, date, review photos, verified-purchase and incentivized flags,
  SKU/variant bought, reviewer, reviewer country.
- Optional per-product summary row with total reviews, overall rating and the 1–5 star breakdown.
- Headful Chromium under xvfb drives TikTok Shop's own signed review API (no vendored signer).
- Tier-aware, country-matched residential proxy with FlowExtract Vault dedicated-proxy support and
  one-way fallback to Apify Proxy; automatic session rotation on a verification wall.
- Pay-per-event billing: actor start, product processed, review scraped.
