# App Store Ratings and Histogram for Five Finance Apps

**Use case:** 

The app row is free and carries what most people come for: average rating and count, the same for the current version, the star histogram, written-review count, genre, price and version. Five finance apps in one run with ten newest reviews each, so the numbers come with a little evidence. Daily, the app rows alone are a rating history. Cost: 50 review rows at $0.004 = at most $0.20 a run.

## About this Actor

This example demonstrates how to use [Apple App Store Reviews Scraper — App Reviews & Ratings](https://apify.com/kestrel/app-store-reviews-scraper.md) with a specific input configuration. Visit the [Actor detail page](https://apify.com/kestrel/app-store-reviews-scraper.md) to learn more, explore other use cases, and run it yourself.


## How to integrate an Actor?

This Task's input is already configured above. Use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For full API examples (JavaScript, Python, CLI, MCP, OpenAPI), see this Task's Actor page: https://apify.com/kestrel/app-store-reviews-scraper.md

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).
