Pricing

This Actor uses pay-per-result pricing:

Event	Price
Per app scraped	$0.002 ($2 / 1,000 apps)

You are only charged for apps actually returned. Apify platform usage is billed separately by Apify.

Use cases

• App Store Optimization (ASO) - track keyword rankings and competitor metadata
• Competitor monitoring - watch ratings, versions, and pricing over time
• Market research - analyze genres, pricing models, and developer portfolios
• App intelligence - build datasets across categories and storefronts

How to Scrape the Apple App Store (Step by Step)

1. Click Try for free / Run.
2. Enter keywords in searchTerms (e.g. photo editor) or specific numeric app IDs in appIds.
3. Choose the entity (iPhone, iPad, or Mac apps) and the country storefront.
4. Set maxResultsPerTerm (start small to test; the App Store caps at 200).
5. Run the Actor, then export results as JSON, CSV, Excel, or HTML, or pull them via the Apify API.

Tips

• App IDs are the numeric id in an App Store URL (e.g. id284882215).
• Use country to compare the same app across storefronts.
• Pairs well with a Google Play scraper for cross-platform app intelligence.
