# Competitor App Reviews by Name: Meditation Apps

**Use case:** 

No id hunting: each name resolves to the top hit of Apple's own search API, and the status row records which app that was. Two meditation apps in the App Store's most-helpful order - what a shopper sees first - a hundred each with matching columns, plus a free app row per app with average rating, rating count and the star histogram. Cost: 200 review rows at $0.004 = at most $0.80 a run.

## Input

```json
{
  "appIds": [],
  "startUrls": [],
  "appNames": [
    "Headspace",
    "Calm"
  ],
  "countries": [
    "us"

## 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`).
