Google Play Scraper

Google Play Scraper collects Google Play apps from search, app links, developers and top charts and returns one row per app: installs, rating, number of ratings and reviews, star histogram, price, in-app purchases, ads, version, release and update dates, Android version, content rating, developer e-mail, website and address, description, screenshots and video. Switch on one option to add reviews with stars, text, date, thumbs-up, app version and the developer's reply.

$0.001 per app, $0.00007 per review. No Google account, no API key, no login, no start fee.

What is Google Play Scraper?

Google Play has no public API for app data. This Actor reads Google Play the way the Play website does and returns clean rows — for app store optimisation (ASO), competitor tracking, market research, lead generation (developer e-mails), and review analysis.

What is in every row

Field	Meaning
title, appId, url, genre, contentRating	The app
installs, minInstalls, maxInstalls	Installs (Google's bucket and estimate)
rating, ratings, reviewsCount, histogram	Ratings and stars 1–5
free, price, offersInAppPurchases, inAppPriceRange, adSupported	Monetisation
version, updatedAt, released, recentChanges, androidVersion	Release history
developer, developerEmail, developerWebsite, developerAddress	Developer contacts
Review rows: rating, text, date, thumbsUp, appVersion, replyText	With Add reviews on

How much does it cost?

Event	Price
App	$0.001
Review (optional)	$0.00007

• Full details are included in the app price.
• Apps below Minimum rating or Minimum installs: $0.
• Links that fail: $0 (an error row says why).

Bulk export: what 50,000 rows actually cost

This Actor is built for bulk jobs — thousands of inputs in one run, or a daily schedule. There is no fee per run, no fee per page and no proxy charge: you pay for the rows you keep.

Job	This Actor	Most-used Actor in this category
50,000 reviews	$3.50	$7.50
10,000 apps with full details	$10	$23 + start fees

Checked on the Apify Store on 23 September 2026 against the Actor with the most monthly users in this category ($0.00015 per review for the most-used reviews Actor; $0.0023 per app plus a start fee for the most-used app-details Actor). Some Actors here ask less per row — this table compares against the one buyers actually use most.

How to use it in three steps

1. Type searches, paste app links, developers or pick a top chart.
2. Set Country and Language, and switch on Add reviews if you need them.
3. Press Start, then download JSON, CSV or Excel — or call the run from the API, n8n, Make, Zapier or an AI agent.

FAQ

Do I need a Google account? No.

Other countries and languages? Set Country (us, id, de…) and Language (en, id, de…).

How many reviews can I get? Thousands per app, newest first or by rating/helpfulness.

Why is installs a range? Google shows buckets like "10,000,000+"; maxInstalls is Google's own estimate.

Is this legal? The Actor reads public app pages. Reviewer names are personal data — handle them in line with data protection law.
